金朝初期科技状况研究

Study on Technological Status of Earlier Jin Dynasty

女真是中国东北地区的一个古老民族,在金朝兴起之前长期处于原始社会状态,金朝创立后,大量吸收辽国及宋朝的科学技术,在医疗、建筑、农业特别是铁器的制造与使用等方面取得重大成果。在历史上,东北地区少数民族众多,对中国科技文化以及社会均产生过重要影响。但其科技史料十分匮乏和零散,更缺乏深入系统的整理,是一个急需抓紧研究的领域。

The Nvzhen nationality lived in the northeastern area of China in ancient time. It was in primal state before the rise of Jin dynasty. However after the establishment of the Jin Dynasty, it absorbed technology from Liao and Song dynasty, and got great fruit, in the fields of medical treatment, architecture, and agriculture especially in the aspects of making and using iron- ware. In history, there were numerous minorities in northeastern area, who played important parts in Chinese technology and society. But what we can find now are only pinch and scattered technological dates, not to mention through and systematic sorting out in this field. It is very urgent to research into this realm.
