日本绳文文化

The Japanese Jomon Culture

日本列岛得天独厚的生态环境,特别是以落叶阔叶林为主的植物食物"粮仓"、覆盖全岛的森林所具有的动物食物"肉库"和极其丰富的海洋食物"海鲜库",为绳文人提供了丰富而又稳定的食物保证,不仅使他们在15,000年前便制造出可能是世界上最早的陶器,而且使他们在上万年的时间中,生存在得天独厚却也有美中不足之处的"准伊甸园"式生态环境之中。自然环境的变化、特别是气温变化这只"看不见的手",通过左右"粮仓""肉库"和"海鲜库"的变迁,导演了"准伊甸园"由兴至衰的演化史。

The exceptional ecological environment of the chain of islands in Japan,including the granary of plant food from the forest,the storage of meat from the animal in the forest, and storage of seafood,supplies sufficient and stable food for the people in Jomon Period. They created maybe the earliest pottery in the world in 15,000 years ago,and lived a happy life in this quasi garden of Eden. The change of the ecological environment,especial the invisible hand of temperature,caused the transition of the granary of the plant food,the storage of the mean and seafood,resulted in the evolution of this quasi garden of the Eden.
