摘要
河南孟津寨根和班沟遗址都出土有裴李岗文化晚期的石磨盘。为了研究其功能,我们对两遗址出土的两件磨盘进行了微痕和残留物取样、分析。研究结果显示,这两件石磨盘主要用于加工植物,包括栝楼根、小麦族植物种子、薏米的颖果、栎属橡子,也可能还有少量小米,同时也加工石器之类的硬质器具。对中国北方多个旧石器晚期至新石器早期遗址出土磨盘、磨棒功能的研究,一再显示这类工具主要的加工对象是野生植物,其中块根和橡子占大宗。这一现象不仅说明该地区文化传统的连续性,也反映了在新石器时代早期谷物栽培的初期阶段,广谱经济仍然占有优势。
A number of grinding stones have been found at the late Peiligang cultural sites of Zhaigen and Bangou in Mengjin, Henan. We conducted usewear and residue analyses on two grinding stones from these sites, in order to understand their function. The results show that these tools were mainly used to process plants, including snakegourd roots, Triticeae grasses, Job' s tears, Quercus sp. acorn, and probably a small amount of millet. In addition, they may have also been used for grinding hard objects, such as stone. Several research projects on Paleolithic and Neolithic grinding stones suggest that these tools were used for processing wild plants, of which tubers and acorns were predominant. This phenomenon indicates a continuous cultural tradition in the region, and the Broad Spectrum strategy in subsistence economy characterized the early Neolithic era.
