试论云南石寨山文化同心圆纹陶盘的功能与玉溪刺桐关遗址的性质

The Function of Ceramic Basins with Concentric Circle Design Discovered in Shizhaishan Culture Sites in Yunnan and the Nature of Citongguan Site, Yuxi

相对于数量丰富且题材多样的青铜器研究,云南石寨山文化的陶器迄今尚未得到充分探讨。本文透过民族学观察记录、中国史前考古材料与石寨山文化出土的同心圆纹陶盘进行比较,对其功能进行初步探讨,并重新检讨玉溪刺桐关遗址的性质。本文推断石寨山文化出土的同心圆纹盘可能即当地慢轮制陶工具的其中一项构件,而刺桐关遗址可能是一个制陶作坊。

Compared with the rich and varied research on its bronzes, the pottery of Shizhaishan Culture in Yunnan Province has not yet been fully explored. Based on ethnographic observations and prehistoric archeological material, the present paper conducts comparative research on ceramic basins with concentric circle decoration unearthed from Shizhaishan Culture, discussing in particular their function. The nature of the site of Citongguan in Yuxi is discussed as well. This article suggest that the ceramic basins with concentric circle design of the Shizhaishan Culture may be the result of a local pottery forming technique using a throw wheel, and Citongguan may have been a pottery workshop.
