　　湖北日报讯 (记者邓洪涛、夏永辉)襄阳市文物考古研究所上月底宣布，在襄阳市高新区一工地上抢救发掘出一座宋代古墓。据考古专家推测，这座墓葬与宋代书法家米芾家族墓地有很大的关联，疑似米氏家族墓。

　　这座墓葬曾遭到工地施工破坏，经人举报后，考古所赶来进行抢救发掘，目前已清理出土部分文物。从外观来看，这座古墓更像是一座深井，从墓基到穹顶高度4米以上，穹顶呈八角形。砖砌仿木结构的墓室牌楼、砖雕形式的墓室再现了当时房屋的样式。

　　襄阳市文物考古研究所王志刚向记者介绍，从墓基到穹顶的高度、墓室空间格局，显示出古墓主人生前具有一定的社会地位和财力。此墓不同于宋代墓道向南的下葬习俗，而是朝向七八百米处的米芾后代的聚居地米家庄方位。

　　专家分析，这座墓葬应该是米氏家族墓。后期清理、研究工作仍在进行中。

　　米芾(1051-1107)，北宋书法家、画家、书画理论家，祖籍太原，后徙居襄阳，善诗，工书法，擅篆、隶、楷、行、草等书体。
