香港新石器时代斧、锛生产系统的重建:以西贡沙下遗址为例

本文以近年发现的香港西贡沙下遗址出土物为例,借助于新几内亚民族志中有关石斧锛制造的记录,运用"操作链"的分析路径对沙下遗址新石器时代石斧锛作坊的生产系统进行了初步重建。将石斧锛的制造过程分为原料采备与毛坯预制、粗坯整形、研磨成器三个阶段,对各生产阶段产品的变化以及香港新石器时代石器专业作坊的兴衰做了讨论,认为在香港新石器时代晚期,石斧锛生产已趋于专业化。     

香港西贡沙下遗址DI区发掘简报

2002年春,香港古物古迹办事处与广州市文物考古研究所在香港西贡沙下遗址DI区进行考古发掘,面积1000平方米。发掘新石器时代晚期、商周时期和宋代文化层,清理了石器制作场、墓葬、灰坑及柱洞等遗迹,出土大量石制品和陶器,还有少量汉、宋、明、清时期的遗迹和遗物,为研究香港及珠江三角洲地区考古学文化的序列提供了宝贵的资料。     

谈偃师焦村魏石经《尚书·无逸》残石

1978年,洛阳汉魏太学遗址东南约18公里的偃师焦村之野发现一块刻有古文、小篆、隶书三体之曹魏正始石经残石,6行19字,经文“家……勤劳……不则……昔在……宁……外”,为《尚书·无逸》篇开首,复原后知为正始石经第廿石中心偏左部位残石。     

白鹤梁题刻保护问题及其与水域环境的关系

白鹤梁题刻是三峡库区唯一的国家级文物保护单位,受三峡水库淹没影响。在简单介绍和评价白鹤题刻现有保护方案的基础上,本文旨在探讨白鹤梁题刻及其与水域环境的相互关系,提出在进行白鹤梁题刻保护时,除了应注意保护白鹤梁题刻本身,还应恢复白鹤梁题刻赖以生存的水域环境及其所形成的独特的人文景观。     

马祖常碑考

潢川县文物管理委员会收藏有元代大文学家马祖常墓碑两通。一通是1985年挖塘时被打捞出来的,一通是1993年在拓宽信(阳)潢(川)公路时发现的。这两通碑都是在距县城西9公里的付店乡何店村马祖常墓地附近出土,均系青石琢成,正楷阴刻。虽经多...     

浚县贾胡庄东汉画像石墓

１９９９年 ８月 ３日－ ９月 ８日,在河南省浚县贾胡庄发掘清理了一座东汉时期的砖石混砌多室画像石墓,出土画像石４块,雕刻画像５幅。其中有铺首衔环图、鹤鸟育雏图、伏羲女娲交尾图、羽化升仙图等。艺术表现手法独特,为进一步研究汉画像石提供了新的资料。     

从国山碑的开发谈对石质文物的保护与管理

国山碑是现存最古老的封禅碑之一,又是我国江南地区记录地震的最早资料。近年对国山碑的开发,为石质物的保护与管理提供了成功的经验。     

An Illustration of the Use of an Atypicality Index in Provenancing British Stone Axes

An atypicality index has been used to compare the chemical compositions of 11 British prehistoric implements (axes and axe‐hammers, and a mace) with previously suggested and likely sources in South Wales (Group XIII spotted dolerite from the Carnmenyn area, and Group VIII rhyolite from Carnalw). Atypicality indices together with mineralogy indicate that only two out of six supposed Group XIII implements are likely to be Group XIII, and only one of the five rhyolite implements is likely to originate from Carnalw. These results provide statistical support for earlier provenancing of seven of the implements, and provide the first geochemical source information for four implements. The results illustrate the usefulness of the atypicality index in archaeology, and support the idea that Groups XIII and VIII comprise a larger variety of chemical types than previously thought. Further work is now needed to determine how prevalent this variety is within these implement groups.     

中国磨制石器起源的南北差异

磨制石器的起源是学界关心的问题之一,本文试图探讨中国早期磨制石器的主要种类、发展阶段及南北差异的原因,以期揭示磨制石器起源的内在机制。磨制石器的起源与生业经济紧密相关,中国旧石器向新石器过渡阶段对于植物资源的利用促使了中国磨制石器的起源。由于中国南北环境的差异,对于植物资源的利用种类和利用方式有所区别,因此导致中国南北磨制石器种类的不同。     

Paper 5: Historic Mortars from the Coudenberg Archaeological Site: Characterization and Source of Raw Materials

Abstract

The characterization of historic mortars by means of a concise methodology of material analyses can provide crucial information with regard to the origin of the raw materials and the ancient mortar technology. For the analysis of the historic mortars of the Coudenberg archaeological site, the methodology consists of optical and scanning electron microscopy, simultaneous thermal analysis, and an acidic treatment. These analyses were carried out on a total of seventeen samples lifted from various areas in the site, in function of the building chronology resulting from a historic built investigation. The type of binder and aggregate as well as their volumetric ratio were determined.

Both binder and aggregate present distinctive features, which made it possible to identify the probable geological provenance of the raw materials. The observations are verified with available historical records regarding the construction of the main banqueting hall — the Aula Magna — and the use of raw materials such as limestone and sand for the production of lime and construction purposes.
