摘要
19世纪60年代之后,欧美人士开始对我国不同区域进行地质考察。20世纪20年代,为验证中亚为哺乳动物和古人类发源地这一猜想,美国中亚考察团来到中国,对蒙古地区进行了五次大规模考察,其中以1921~1925年的三次考察成果最为突出。文章通过对考察报告和时人著述的整理,分析了中亚考察团的组建缘由,回顾了安得思在云南和蒙古进行的两次预备性考察,梳理了中亚考察团的筹备和主要经过,以及取得的地质学、古生物学成果。结合中英文报刊,探讨考察团与中国学界尤其是与巴尔博、葛利普、叶良辅等中外学者长达数年的合作,以及与中国地质学会、北京博物学会的学术联系。
The Central Asiatic Expedition, sponsored by the American Museum of Natural History and led by Roy Chapman Andrews, was one of the most important expeditions in the world because of its remarkable achievements. By analyzing the expedition reports, scholars＇ works, and coverage in Chinese and English newspapers at that time, this essay reviews the theoretical foundations, processes, and geological and paleontological achievements of the expedition in Mongolia （1921- 1925 ）. It also explores interactions between the staff of the expedition and Chinese academia （ e. g. Geological Society of China, the Peking Society of Natural History）, as well as the expedition＇s cooperation with scholars such as G. B. Barbour, A. W. Grabau, and Yih Liang Fu.
