摘要
众所周知，旧石器时代向新石器时代的过渡一直是备受学术界关注的重大课题。发生在这一时期的转变不仅仅是人类文化因素的进步，更为重要的是人类生存方式的革命性飞跃。人类从简单适应和利用自然的采集、狩猎经济文化类型，进入以栽培植物为主来维持生存的阶段，步入人类文明殿堂的第一级台阶，这是人类历史上一个具有划时代意义的重大事件。
The Institute of Archaeology, CASS, and the Shaanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology jointly excavated the first locality of the Longwangchan site in 2005 to 2006. They discovered more than 20 spots of fire-using traces, above 20,000 stone artifacts, including such important objects as querns and polished spades, and some animal bones, which must go back to about 20000 to 15000 BP. The excavation provided scientific data for understanding the pedigree of microlithic cultures in this area and the change of man＇s subsistence pattern and national environments in the Pleistocene epoch, and has important value to studying the origin of dry land agriculture in North China and the transition of the Paleolithic towards the Neolithic in the Yellow River valley.
