山西大同县旧石器调查与初步研究

Investigation and Preliminary Study of Paleolithic in Datong County, Shanxi

2016年4~6月,由山西大学考古学系和大同市考古研究所联合组成的山西泥河湾旧石器考古队,对大同县境内进行了一次大规模的普查工作。在田野调查工作的过程中,对个别旧石器遗址进行了试掘工作,本文主要对此次调查的成果进行了初步研究。一、地理位置大同县是大同盆地的一部分,亦属于广义泥河湾盆地的西端,地理坐标在东经113°20’~113°55′,北纬39°43′~40°16′,东接阳高、南邻浑源和怀仁、北临新荣.

In recent years,the Paleolithic archaeological research of the Yangyuan basin in the eastern part of the Nihewan basin is relatively abundant.In contrast,the Paleolithic archaeological work in the Datong Basin in the western end of the Nihewan Basin is lagging behind.In order to understand the Paleolithic culture in the western end of the Nihewan Basin,the Paleolithic Archaeological Team,composed of Shanxi University and Datong City Archaeological Research Institute,conducted a two-month Paleolithic investigation in Datong County in 2016.The survey found 48 sites.Based on the preliminary analysis of the Paleolithic sites in Datong County,this paper speculates that the Paleolithic cultural relics in the area have continued from the Early paleolithic to the Late paleolithic.The lithics industry has experienced the development process from core-flake technology to microlithic technology.This paper discusses the progress and problems of the Paleolithic archaeological research in Datong County,in the light of the research work of Datong Basin in recent years.
