陕西省旬县位于陕、甘两省交界处,古为郇国,是周族的重要发祥地。秦汉隋唐,一直为京畿北部要镇。晋至明代的多数历史时期里,彼称为三水县,这显然是由于三水河而得名。三水河是该县境内的一条主要河流,其上游称马栏河。中、下游称三水河。它发源于子午岭南端,向两南注入黄河的重要支流泾河。1989年10月,经旬邑县博物馆介绍,笔者徒步考察了三水河六十余公里的上要河岸,上迄马栏镇,下至马家河,考察了几处石窟。其中分别有北朝、唐、宋、明、清各个时期的石刻造像和壁画。因其地理位置偏僻,长期不为学术界所知晓,这些石窟没有名称,更没有介绍发表。根据它们各自的地名或俗称,可分别称为黑牛窝石窟、堡子湾石窟、蜈蚣洞石窟、赵家洞石窟和马家河石窟。现就所见将各窟依次简要论述如下。 Xunxian County, Shaanxi Province, is located at the junction of Shaanxi and Gansu Provinces.
