中国战略核武器发展与美国早期ABM部署计划

1964年10月,中国爆炸了第一枚核装置,1966年10月又成功试射了第一枚带有核弹头的制导导弹,自此进入拥有战略核武器的国家行列。中国战略核武器的发展引发了美国约翰逊和尼克松两届政府任期内的ABM部署纷争,并最终在“威胁预期最大化”原则和“限制伤害”理论的指导下部署了美国早期的ABM防御体系。     

郑国青铜礼乐器祭祀坑相关问题讨论

新郑祭祀遗址出土青铜礼乐器作为祭祀重器,是春秋中期郑国特殊祭祀文化的具体表现.不同遗址出土器物组合的差异,从器物层面体现了当时郑国高等级贵族间的微妙关系,轮流执政的卿大夫已经掌控了包括土地所有权在内的多项国家权力,拥有和国君同等级的礼器、乐器使用权,仅在用鼎数量方面存在着差异.作为祭器的祭祀坑出土青铜礼乐器和同时期墓葬出土器物有着本质上的区别,表明当时祭祀礼仪仍然严格遵循着传统礼制,也正是由于这个原因,不能将遗址出土青铜乐器与"郑卫之声"简单地等同分析.     

论黄河流域先秦时期腰坑墓葬俗文化——兼说与长江流域同类墓葬俗的关系

腰坑墓流行于黄河流域中原地区的墓葬中,学者们多把对其研究的焦点集中在对这一葬俗文化起源问题的讨论上,并较一致地认为该葬俗最早起源于河南地区。本文对发现的有关材料进行梳理,围绕中原地区先秦时期腰坑墓的起源、用途、性质、发展演变等进行了分析,以澄清过去研究中存在的一些模糊认识。认为,腰坑墓的葬俗最早可以追溯到新石器时代,而其起源亦非河南地区。

《肃镇华夷志校注》述评

文章认为《肃镇华夷志校注》有3个特点：慧眼识珠,价值再现;珍贵史料面世,研究有据可依;校勘精慎,注释详赡。并指出其不足之处。     

出土青铜酒器残留物分析的尝试

利用快速溶剂萃取法,从出土青铜酒器内的土壤中提取有机残留物．对其作高效液相色谱定性分析,发现其中含有酒石酸,表明这些青铜酒器在下葬时可能盛着酒。快速溶剂萃取法的萃取剂为1％磷酸（体积比）溶液,较之传统有机溶剂,操作时更为方便和安全。此方法可推广于陶器中残留物的分析．具有较为广泛的应用前景。

从体育文物看古代的体育与娱乐—陕西古代体育娱乐文物展

说到十四朝古都—陕西,人们都能说上几件历史典故,却不知道这些典故里还有很多体育娱乐;说起周秦汉唐,人们津津乐道的是秦皇汉武唐天子的文治武功,却不知道他们各个都是游乐高手;说起陕西的地理山川,人们耳熟能详的是长安与咸阳的富足与繁华,却不知道它们也曾是古代中国和域外体育娱乐的竞技场和展示台,     

陕西志丹县马头山道教真身泥塑年代的测定分析

14C测年技术作为一种测年技术已广泛地应用在考古学、地质年代学、古气候学、古地理学等许多方面。为了解陕西志丹县马头山道教真身泥塑的年代,采用加速器质谱14C技术对道教真身泥塑的谷秸进行了测试,测试结果表明该真身泥塑制作年代在17世纪中叶至18世纪末的可能性较大。     

Wild or domesticated: DNA analysis of ancient water buffalo remains from north China

Recent zooarchaeological studies on water buffalo (Bubalus sp.) remains from China and south Asia question the traditional view that water buffalo were first domesticated in Neolithic China over 7000 years ago. The results from several recent population genetic studies of modern domesticated buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) are not consistent with each other, placing the original center of buffalo's domestication in south Asia, southeast Asia, or China. This paper reports a study using an ancient DNA approach to analyze water buffalo remains from Neolithic sites in north China to investigate their affinities with modern domesticated water buffalo, and to shed light on the origin of modern domesticated water buffalo in China.A 169 bp fragment of D-loop mitochondrial DNA was successfully amplified and verified for 13 of 24 bone samples obtained from seven archaeological sites along the Wei River valley in Shaanxi Province, China. The bone samples which yielded positive DNA can be dated to 8000–3600 cal. BP. The phylogenetic analysis of the obtained DNA sequences along with modern water buffalo sequences indicated that the ancient water buffalos were not the direct ancestor of modern domesticated water buffalo. However, the phylogenetic analysis, along with BLAST searches of these ancient DNA sequences, did demonstrate their relatedness to water buffalo more so than to any other bovid species, confirming the existence of indigenous wild (but now extinct) water buffalo species (B. mephistopheles) in ancient China.The DNA analysis of these ancient remains failed to establish direct links between modern domesticated water buffalo (B. bubalis) and indigenous water buffalo (B. mephistopheles) from ancient China. If further DNA studies of more ancient remains from other regions of China confirm the observation of solely indigenous water buffalo species in ancient China, it would suggest modern water buffalo might not have been first domesticated in China.
