摘要
环境考古学是近二三十年来在第四纪地质学、考古学、孢粉学等学科大发展的基础上展开的科学研究新领域,它是许多学科交叉研究中诞生的新学科。我国从80年代中期后逐步展开环境考古学的研究。它的主要内容是恢复古环境,并探讨其与古文化发展间的联系。它不但对发掘我国古文化精髓是十分重要的,而且对我们认识现在和预测将来的环境也有裨益。它开辟了自然科学与社会科学结合的重要途径,促使科学走向更综合和更高发展阶段。
Based on the development of such disciplines as Quaternary Geology, Archaeology and Palynology, a new cross-discipline named Environmental Archaeology has been developing rapidly recently. In China, the study of Environmental Archaeology started in the middle of 1980s. The research areas of this new discipline include reconstructing the Paleoenvironment and discussing it's relationship with the development of ancient cultures, so it is very important to the understanding of the quintessences of ancient Chinese cultures, and the present condition, and to the predicting of the environment in the future. Environmental Archaeology also paves a new road for combining the social science with the natural science, which may lead to a more synthetical development of Science in general.
