石峁遗址出土口簧的年代问题——兼谈石峁遗址的分期

Dating Problems of Kouhuang,a Musical Instrument,Found in the Shimao Site--A Further Discussion about the Phases

陕西神木石峁遗址出土的口簧及三足瓮、敛口盉,年代应为公元前1900年以后,而非公元前2000年前后。口簧还见于陶寺遗址J401,测年数据早于石峁遗址出土口簧,因而“石峁遗址所在的中国北方河套地区是世界口簧的祖源地”的观点不确。石峁遗址应当区分为三个时期的三类文化堆积,但这三类文化堆积并不是石峁遗址的全部遗存。

The Kouhuang,tri-leg weng vessel,and small mouth he vessel with sloping shoulders that were found in the Shimao site at Shenmu,Shaanxi province should be dated later than 1900 BC,and not around 2000 BC,as was previously thought.A Kouhuang was also found in J401 at the Taosi site and its dating was earlier than that found in the Shimao site.Hence,it is not accurate to say that in China’s northern Hetao area,where the Shimao site is situated,was the original place of the Kouhuang.The Shimao site can be divided into three phases with three types of cultural layers.However,these three cultural layers did not cover the entire time period of the Shimao site.
