摘要: 本文对内蒙古中南部地区青铜—早期铁器时代5个考古地点出土人骨的龋病患病情况做了研究, 在与其他国内材料对比的基础上, 探讨了文化类型与龋病患病率之间的关系。龋病在以农业经济为主的人群中患病率最高, 在农牧兼营的人群中龋病率其次, 在以畜牧业为生的游牧人群中患病率最低。龋病是反映内蒙古地区该时段古代居民经济模式的一个有效指标。

Abstract: Dental caries were observed from five samples of Bronze Age and Early Iron Age populations excavated in the southern central area of Inner Mongolia. Compared with other ancient populations available in the Great Wall region of Inner Mongolia, the relationship between dental caries and archaeology, culture and economy were discussed. The prevalence of dental caries is clearly related to the types of economy; agricultural groups having the highest rates, mixed cultural groups having moderate rates, and nomadic groups having the lowest rates of caries.
