Abstract

Research on Ancient Residential Buildings in Shanxi Province usually divides Shanxi into five regions based on historical geography, agricultural zoning, and folk dialects: Jinzhong, Jinbei, Jinnan, Jindongnan, and Jinxibei. Within the Jinzhong region, different areas and historical backgrounds have unified common features in ancient residential architecture, yet each also possesses distinct characteristics. Local standards for architectural details exist, serving as indicators for determining the attributes of residential buildings. This paper aims to analyze and compare architectural decorations in the Jinzhong region, focusing on the decorative components of the Gable’s head, and study the variations in the characteristics of ancient residential buildings within the same region.
