岳石文化农业经济的植物考古新证

New Archaeobotanical Evidence of the Agricultural Economy of Yueshi Culture

新近的植物考古工作表明,岳石文化农作物的比重高于非农作物,种类有粟、黍、稻、小麦、大麦、大豆等,不同区域、环境、等级的聚落在农作物构成、生业经济方面存在一定的差异。但总的来看,岳石文化农业经济在海岱龙山文化的基础上继续发展,惟稻的出土概率在多数聚落降低,可能在一定程度上反映了局部地区稻作的弱势,与之相应,粟黍等旱作方式在多数聚落农业生产活动中得以强化。

Recent archaeobotanical work shows that crops,which include glutinous millet,millet,rice,wheat,barley,and soybean,takes a higher proportion than non-agricultural productsin Yueshi culture.Settlements in different regions,environments or of different grades had different agricultural economies with different crops composition.In general,the agricultural economy of Yueshi Culture developed out from the Longshan Culture in Haidai area.The few unearthed rice remains in most settlements are likely to be indicative of the weak rice farming in some regions and privileged millet plantingin most settlements.
