再论东南亚大陆的“T”字形环

Rediscussion on the T-Shaped Rings of the Southeast Asian Mainland

"T"字形环在东南亚大陆新石器时代晚期就已出现,一直延续到铁器时代早期,是东南亚大陆史前人类最典型的佩饰之一,因其特殊的形制长期受到学者关注,且随着材料的增多,认识也不断深入。本文结合"T"字形环所属考古学文化的时代属性和出现的时间,辅之玦的伴出和原始稻作农业的传播,阐述"T"字形环是经珠江口地区传播到越南北部,再扩展到东南亚大陆的观点。

The T-shaped rings emerged in Southeast Asia during the late Neolithic period and continued into the early Iron Age.They are one of the most typical prehistoric ornaments on the Southeast Asian mainland.Due to their special shape,they have long attracted scholarly attention and our understanding has deepened with the increasing number of finds and related research.This paper discusses the date and nature of the archaeological cultures in which T-shaped rings appear,their time of emergence,their association with jue jade rings,and their connection with the emergence of agriculture,showing how the T-shaped jade ring spread through the Pearl River into northern Vietnam and then expanded throughout the Southeast Asian mainland.
