| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 歷史學研究所 === 102 === In late Warring State Period, Qin started to launch an attack toward Chu. After two years of war, the pre-empire finally occupied Chu’s capital Inn (郢), and set up the administrative Region NanJun (南郡) in B.C. 278. This thesis would like to discuss the ruling of NanJun by Qin during the late Warring State Period after its occupation.
This thesis contents two parts. First, I’d like to use archaeological material to argue that Nanjun had been through a rearrangement of space and economy. The sites of cities and the settlement of immigrants suggest that the extraordinary economical scale of Inn had decline and the new administrative region, NanJun had become the military province of Qin against Chu and Hann. A new economical pattern which made NanJun a material supplier and market had replaced the old one.
The second part of the thesis suggests a point of view of the relationship between the immigrants of Qin and the old resident of Chu. In new discovered documentary, we see a racial separation on household registration system. It represents that Qin identified its people through bloodline instead of political control. We can see the racial discrimination and stress under the ruling of Qin.
NanJun, once the central area of Chu which known “Inn”, had become the frontier of the empire. We can observe the changing of the society as Qin endeavored its expansion to the east.
