淮河流域新石器时代中期先民生计方式研究

本文通过梳理考古遗址出土的动/植物遗存和微体植物化石遗存,结合人和动物骨骼/牙齿等生物遗骸的稳定同位素分析数据,对淮河流域新石器时代中期先民的生计方式进行了探讨。综合研究表明,该时期先民拥有着多样化的食物结构,动、植物资源的利用方式多元化,从事着兼有采集、渔猎、农业和畜牧业的广谱性经济。其中,采集和渔猎是先民主要生计方式,而农业和畜牧业则是重要的补充。淮河流域不同地区先民畜牧业和渔猎经济结构大体类似,但粟作和稻作农业经济结构略有差异。

In this paper,the subsistence strategies of the middle Neolithic ancestors in the Huaihe River Basin was studied by combing the fossil remains of plants and animals and combining with the stable isotope analysis data of human and animal bones and teeth.The comprehensive study shows that the ancestors in this period had a diversified food structure and utilization ways of animal and plant resources,and engaged in a broad-spectrum economy of collecting,fishing and hunting,agriculture and animal husbandry.Among them,gathering,fishing and hunting were dominant,while agriculture and animal husbandry were important supplements.The economic structures of animal husbandry,fishing and hunting were similar in difierent areas of the Huaihe River basin,but the economic structures of millet and rice farming were slightly difierent.
