摘要/Abstract

摘要： 本文是2000年以来广西布兵盆地第四纪石器遗址的调查报告。布兵盆地是一个小型的断陷溶蚀盆地,发育南方典型的卡斯特地貌,洞穴众多并保存大量堆积物。盆地内发育2条小河,自西南向东北穿过盆地汇入右江,阶地广泛分布在盆地内部,可以确认的有4级阶地。旧石器在布兵盆地的第二至第四级河流阶地堆积物中均有发现,时代涵盖中更新世到晚更新世的多个阶段,一级阶地的后缘有新石器时代的遗物。布兵盆地的石器属于中国南方的砾石工业,石器文化包含旧石器时代早期的两面打制技术和旧石器时代晚期的以石片为主的加工技术。这些遗址的进一步综合研究,将对了解华南早期人类石器文化的起源和演化提供重要的科学依据。

Abstract: This paper is based on field investigations since 2000 in the Bubing Basin between Tiandong and Tianyang County, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, South China. The Bubing Basin is a typical small rifted dissolution basin in South China. The caves are situated in late Paleozoic limestone hills on the margins and inner parts of the basin preserving rich Quaternary deposits and mammalian faunas. Four fluvial terraces werd developed inside this basin. Stone artifacts are collected from the four terraces with ages estimated from early Middle Pleistocene to Early Holocene. These pebble-tool industries contain bifacial technology from the early Paleolithic, and small flake technology in the late Paleolithic. This study provides important evidence for Paleolithic cultural origins and evolution in South China.
