The analysis result of the paleoanthropic living environment at Yujiagou site ofNihewan Basin in the north of China shows that the microlithic culture at the Yujiagou site occurredduring the opening centuries of the last deglaciation and developed markedly in the continuouswarm and dry climatic conditions from late period of last deglaciation to early postglacial. Moreover,it also shows that the neolithic culture at the Yujiagou site occurred in the early postglacial anddeveloped rapidly in a warm and humid climatic condition in the Holocene Megathermal. Climatevariation is an important factor leading to the paleolithic-neolithic cultural展开更多

The dating and the sporopollen analysis show that the middle reaches of the Yellow River where the site is located had been maintaining a steppe environment during 35.1-9.4 kaBP, in which, 35.1-17 kaBP belonged to the last glacial. With cold and dry climate, this period featured a desert steppe environment. In the late of this period, the area had a cold and half-humid steppe environment. The 17.0-11.9 kaBP belonged to the early- and mid-period of the last deglaciation. Mild and half-arid steppe alternates with mild and half-arid steppe, with a small amount of deciduous broadleaf species. During the period of 11.9-10.5 kaBP, cold and dry glacial climate appeared once more, featuring a desert steppe environment. During 10.5-9.4 kaBP, it is mild and half-arid, and later transited toward warm and half-humid. The early phase of this period featured a steppe environment and the later transited into a展开更多
