娅怀洞遗址位于广西隆安县乔建镇博浪村博浪屯的一座孤山上。是一处跨越旧、新石器时代的洞穴遗址，以旧石器时代文化堆积为主。2015~2018年，广西文物保护与考古研究所进行了发掘，分为A、B、C、D四个发掘区，总揭露面积50 m²。发现旧石器时代墓葬、人类化石和用火遗迹，出土了数以万计的文化遗物及动植物遗存。本文报道的文化遗物主要是原生地层出土的（不含扰土层），包括打制石器、磨制石器、骨器、蚌器、陶器等，以打制石器为大宗。打制石器制品的原料多样，以石英砂岩、玻璃陨石为主。采用锤击法和砸击法剥片，石器的修理以锤击法为主。石核以单台面为主，存在修理台面。石器多用石片制作，以单面加工为主，修理简单。石器类型有砍砸器、刮削器、尖状器、凹缺器、锯齿刃器和石钻等，以刮削器为主，尺寸小，多在5 cm以下，总体上属于中国北方小石片石器工业传统。文化遗存可分为四期，年代在43000~4000 BP cal。娅怀洞遗址的发掘为了解广西地区晚更新世人类的体质特征及史前文化面貌、探讨华南及东南亚地区旧石器时代晚期石器技术演化提供了珍贵的实物资料。

The Yahuai Cave site is situated at a limestone tower near Bolang Village, Long’an County, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, South China (107°45′35″E, 23°6′25″N). It is a prehistoric site predominantly characterized by Palaeolithic deposits. Between 2015 and 2018, the Guangxi Institute of Cultural Relic Protection and Archaeology carried out excavations at this site. Four areas, namely A, B, C, and D, were opened, with a total exposure area of 50 m². A burial containing a complete Palaeolithic human skull was discovered. A multitude of cultural remains, such as chipped stone tools, ground stone tools, shell and bone artifacts, and potsherds, were unearthed. The majority of the stone tools are made of small quartz sandstone, tektite, chert, or crystal stones, exhibiting features typical of the “core-flake industry” commonly found in North China. Three hearths and an ash pit were identified, suggesting frequent fire usage at the site. Ochres were found throughout all cultural layers, and some of them were discovered to be ground into powder. Numerous bones of terrestrial and aquatic animals were excavated. The site was dated using the AMS ¹⁴C dating method to a period between 43,000 and 4,000 BP cal. Four cultural phases were recognized, with phases 1~3 belonging to the Palaeolithic period and phase 4 to the Neolithic period.
