2013年河南登封东施旧石器晚期遗址发掘简报

The Excavation of the Late-Paleolithic-Age Dongshi Site at Dengfeng,Henan in 2013

东施遗址位于郑州登封境内嵩山东南麓的大冶盆地内,发掘面积约25平方米,出土石制品近2600件,可分为上下两个文化层。上文化层石制品2568件,以燧石原料为主,含典型石叶技术与早期发展阶段的细石叶技术,石制品类型多样,但以石器生产阶段的副产品占主导,推测其性质为一处石器加工场所。下文化层出土石制品20件,原料皆为石英。类型包括石片、断块、碎屑等,石器面貌为华北石片石器工业。东施遗址上下文化层面貌的差别,体现了MIS3阶段末期郑州地区石器技术转型的现象,具有十分典型的意义。

The Dongshi site locates at the Daye Basin in the southeast of the Songshan Mountains at Dengfeng,Zhengzhou.An area of 25m^2 has been excavated at the Dongshi site during 2013.There are nearly 2600 lithic pieces have been found in the upper cultural layer.The lithic artifacts are mainly made by chert and show the typical blade technique and microblade technique in the infantile period.There are all kinds of lithic assemblages but are dominated by byproducts during the production stage.It should be as a lithic production locality.There are 20 lithic pieces found in the Lower cultural layer,including flakes,chunks and fragments.They are all made by quartz,which reflect core-flake technique in North China during the early MIS 3period.The differences between the upper and lower cultural layers indicate the significant transition of lithic production technique at the end of MIS 3.
