Abstract：The area around the Tai Lake, including the northern part of Zhejiang province, is an important area of ancient culture relics in the Changjiang River valley.There are about ten thousand graves with stone house or mound tombs only in the north of Zhejiang.Great achievement about image characteristics and distributive disciplinarian of mound tomb has been made since the remote sensing technology for archaeology has been made use of in the past four years.Factors such as the size, the tincture, the grayness, the configuration on the picture of aviation remote sensing, and so on, are the basic gist of interpreting mound tombs.Meanwhile, the geomorphologic position, altitude which the image exists has also become an important gist for reference.It has been found out that the mound tombs in the northern Zhejiang are mainly distributed in Changxing county and Anji county, there are many mound tombs in the western suburb of Huzhou.Whereas Deqing county and Yuhang county seldom have mound tombs.The styles of the tomb distribution in the north of Zhejiang include ridge style, foothill, plain and high land style.As for the configuration of the tomb in northern Zhejiang, there are ellipse, rotundity, the acreage of the tombs has three patterns, big, middle and small.The diameter at bottom of the greatest tomb is over 50 meters, and the smallest is less than 3 meters.In addition, the dimensional combination of the tomb has three styles of string of beads, gathering and scattering.These tombs are mainly distributed on the slope, the height of which is from 50 meters to 200 miters above sea level, and uplands and high plains relatively have relatively more.Such characteristics of distribution is linked with the ancient geographical environment.It reflects the characteristics of the ancient geographical environment from another aspect.
