广东深圳市咸头岭新石器时代遗址

Neolithic Site at Xiantouling in Shenzhen City,Guangdong

一、遗址概况 咸头岭遗址位于深圳市东南部大鹏街道办事处咸头岭村，面积近30000平方米（图一）。该遗址是1981年在考古普查中发现的，深圳市博物馆于1985、1989、1997和2004年在遗址的东南部、中部和北部进行过四次发掘。2006年2～4月，深圳市文物考古鉴定所和深圳市博物馆又在遗址西北部进行了第五次发掘。前后五次发掘的总面积近2300平方米。

In March to April 2006, the Shenzhen Municipal Institute for Antiquarian and Archaeological Identification and the Shenzhen Municipal Museum carried out the fifth excavation of the Xiantouling site. Among the extremely rich cultural remains revealed there they discerned vestiges of cooking stoves, house-foundations and broad spots of burnt-clay floors, as well as quantities of sandy and white clay potteries and painted ware, a small number of polished black vessels and some stone artifacts. These remains can be divided into five stages and dated approximately to 7000-6000 BP. This is an important central settlement-site in the Pearl River delta. The excavation set up an important scale for researching into the periodization and dating of Neolithic local archaeological cultures and laid the foundation for the study of related sites.
