摘要:
以手斧、薄刃斧、手镐、大型石刀为代表的大型切割工具,是人类历史上最早的标准化、定型化工具,其出现反映着人类认知能力和技术水平的飞跃。20世纪50年代以来,中国境内的汾河谷地、百色盆地、洛南盆地、丹江口库区等多个区域相继发现了不少大型切割工具,它们长期受到考古研究者的关注,同时,围绕着这些遗存也产生了不少的讨论和争议。本文在简要梳理中国大型切割工具的发现的基础上,从研究者们重点关注的中国是否存在手斧、中国大型切割工具的生产策略、大型切割工具所反映的人类社会行为及中国大型切割工具与旧大陆阿舍利工业的关系这几个问题入手,回顾已有的讨论与研究成果,并在现有研究的基础上对中国大型切割工具的年代问题和区域性特征提出思考。
