渭河流域老官台文化的分期研究

A Chronological Study of Laoguantai Culture in the Wei River Valley

老官台文化是分布在渭河、汉水流域的一个新石器时代中期偏早阶段的考古学遗存。本文主要对分布在渭河流域的老官台文化进行分期研究。对此文化的分期主要是通过各主要遗迹间的叠压、打破关系对遗存进行分析,然后通过遗址间的器物类比确定文化的段别,最后确定文化的期别并认识文化的主要特征。依此把渭河流域的老官台文化分为五段二期,为研究这一时期的聚落、人口、技术等变化创造了条件。

The Laoguantai Culture is used to describe the archaeological remains distributed in the Wei and Han River Valley during the Middle Neolithic Period. This article is mainly dealing with the chronological sequence of the Laoguantai Cul- ture in the Wei River Valley. Based on the stratigraphical relationships and the characteristics of ceramics, the author subdivides the archaeological remains into two major periods and five phases, and generalizes the chronological idiosyncrasies of the Laoguantai Culture. This paper then lies down a solid foundation for the studies of settlement, demography and teelmology during the Middle Neolithic Period.
