摘要:
本文对2015年发现的前上营遗址B地点(QSY-B)的地貌地层发育、年代、遗物埋藏特点和出土石制品的技术特征进行报道。地貌和沉积物特点表明,该遗址的地层记录了泥河湾古湖扩张-收缩-扩张和消亡的过程,古人类活动于古湖水退去的湖滨相环境,顶部覆盖马兰期黄土。前上营遗址B地点为古人类单次活动、短暂停留形成的遗址,较弱的水流运动改变了标本的空间分布,但遗物组合较为完整。沉积物ESR年代测定表明,古人类在该遗址的活动时间大致为距今429±39 ka,处在中更新世。原料调查显示,古人类从距离遗址7~8 km以外区域获取石料,岩性以火山岩和硅质白云岩为主。古人类主要采用锤击法剥片,石核剥片效率和石片产出率高,部分石片显示边缘使用痕迹;多样化的修理石器是该遗址不同于盆地内早更新世石器工业的主要特点,表明古人类对资源环境的适应性及灵活的技术策略。动物化石表面保留人为割切痕迹,指示古人类对动物资源利用行为。前上营遗址B地点的发现和研究,对解读中更新世中国北方古人类的技术行为,以及探讨泥河湾盆地古人类在早-中更新世石器技术演变及适应策略具有重要意义。
