广西与越南发现的早期石拍研究

A Study of the Early Stone Beaters Found in Guangxi and Vietnam

环太平洋地区树皮布文化,是人类衣服文化中重要的一环,人类衣服历史中发源于中国的纺织丝布和无纺楮树皮布,是具有世界性影响的重大发明。但是对于树皮布文化起源和传播的研究,由于考古发现的局限性,到目前为止还是很有限。本文通过对广西地区和越南地区考古遗址发现石拍的梳理,拟从类型学和年代学方面进行综合研究。广西地区的石拍多为复合型石拍,属于新石器时代;越南地区的石拍包括早期复合型石拍和晚期的棍棒型石拍,石拍年代从新石器晚期到青铜时代早期。本文对这些石拍进行详细的介绍,并对石拍的具体年代、功能和用途进行了探讨,认为广西地区和越南地区发现的石拍是制作树皮布的工具。

In the study of human clothing culture,it is worth noting that the bark cloth culture in the Pacific Rim plays an important role revealed by multi-disciplinary evidences.Human clothes originated from China’s woven silk cloth and non-woven bark cloth,which are major inventions with worldwide influence.However,the research on the origin and spread of bark cloth culture has been limited due to the limitations of archaeological discoveries.Our study combines the stone beaters found from archaeological sites in two regions,Guangxi and Vietnam,with comprehensively studies on the perspectives of typology and chronology.We found that most stone beaters from Guangxi are compound stone beater,belonging to the Neolithic Age,while the stone beaters from Vietnam include compoundstone beater in early phase and the Cudgel Type in late phase,ranging from the late Neolithic Period to the early Bronze Age.Through the detail analysis of these stone beaters,as well as the discussion of their specific age,function and use,we believed that these stone beaters were the tools for making bark cloth.
