摘要: 本文对采集自河北、山西和内蒙古等地的43例青铜时代和铁器时代颅骨的颞下颌关节进行了形态学研究。上述入骨材料所代表的古代居民,从经济类型上可划分为两大类,分别属于农业民族和游牧民族。研究结果表明,在若干项重要的颞下颌关节形态特征上,青铜-铁器时代居民与现代人差异显著,表明在这些结构上向现代人水平的明显转化可能发生于更晚的历史阶段。从新石器时代到青铜-铁器时代,人类颞下颌关节的若干形态变化与时代发展的同步性并不明显,而主要反映出其与由经济类型所决定的饮食结构之间的密切关系。

Abstract: The temporomandibular joints of 43 Bronze-lron Age human skulls unearthed in Hebei, Shanxi and Inner Mongolia are studied in this paper. According to their economic types, these skulls can be divided into two groups: the ancient agricultural nation group and the ancient nomadic nation group. The result of this research shows the difference about human dietary traditions decided by their economic types in the primary factor that leads to the morphological and structural changes of human temporomandibular joint.
