摘　　要：学界有关中国城市起源及形成的研究成果较多,然结论众多,莫衷一是。文章拟从"城市革命"与"社会大分工"之间关系的角度重新梳理,认为城市是人类文明的产物,它的出现是在"农业革命"之后,是建立在第一次社会大分工基础之上的,并非第三次社会大分工的产物。城市作为具有中央性特征的王权统治中心,都产生于农业区位条件较好的地区,邦国、酋邦等早期国家组织则是城市形成的关键要素,因此,早期城市的分布反映不同地区文明发展程度的高低。The academic world had many research achievements about the origin and formation of the Chinese city. But these research a- chievements had too many different conclusions. This article would restudy this problem from the angle of the relation between city revolution and social divisions. This article held the view that the city was the product of human civilization. The city had appeared after the agricultural revolution. It had set up on the basis of the first social divisions, and was not the product of the third social divisions. As the center of kingship rule which had the central characteristic, all the cities had appeared in the areas which had good agricultural conditions. The early national or- ganizations, such as polls and chiefdom were the key elements of city formation. Therefore, the distribution of the early cities could reflect the degree of civilization development in different areas.
