宋代以降是中国古代地图学发展的黄金时期,保留下来大量的古地图。目力所及,几十种古地图中都标注有西夏地理信息。通过历时性考察,可以发现:出于军事目的,宋辽金时期的大量地图都绘有与西夏相关的地理信息,从自然地理到人文地理,详尽地描绘了西夏统治区域的情况。迟至元代,尽管西夏已经灭亡,但是由于承继了两宋的传统,元代地图中仍保留有有关西夏的地理信息。延至明清,涉及西夏的古地图屈指可数。中国古地图中的西夏,实际上存在着一个从军事重点到历史遗迹的转变过程,反映出中原王朝对西夏的关注程度日趋消减。
The decline of the Song Dynasty was the golden age of the development of ancient Chinese cartography and a large number of ancient maps were preserved. As far as possible, dozens of ancient maps are marked with Xixia geographical information. Through the diachronic examination, we can find out that for military purposes, a large number of maps of the Song, Liao and Jin dynasties are mapped with the geographical information related to the Xixia. From the natural geography to the human geography, the situation of the reign of Xixia is depicted in detail. As late as the Yuan Dynasty, Xixia had been destroyed, but because of inheriting the tradition of the two Songs, the geographical information of Xixia remained in the Yuan Dynasty’s map. To the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the ancient map involving the Western Xia only a handful. In the ancient map of Xixia, there is actually a transition from a military focus to historic sites, reflecting the diminishing focus of the Central Plains on Xixia.
