炭化模拟实验在植物考古研究中的意义——以水稻和小麦为例

考古遗址中炭化植物遗存的保存会受到包括炭化过程在内的多种因素的影响，从而造成植物考古统计分析中的误差炭化模拟实验对于解决这一问题有着重要意义、该研究对水稻和小麦进行模拟炭化，结合扫描电镜下比较炭化现代样品和考古遗址出土小麦、水稻的显微结构．发现模拟水稻遗存的炭化温度区间为180～210℃，模拟小麦遗存的炭化温度区间为215～315℃。小麦的炭化温度区间范围远远高于水稻，因此它在考古遗址中保存下来的几率可能要远高于水稻。

Preservation of carbonized plant remains in archaeological sites will be affected by many factors, including the carbonization process. That will cause error in statistical analysis about archaeobotany. Carbonization experiment has an important significance to solve this problem.This study has a series of carbonization experiment about rice and wheat, and also will compare the carbonized samples to modem samples by combining with the scanning electron microscope. This study found that the temperature laboratory imitate rice remains is 180-210℃, and the wheat remains＇ is 215-315℃. So the range of carbonization temperature of wheat remains is much higher than the rice remains＇, this study thinks the chances of carbonization for wheat are quite better than rice.
