摘要: 本文依据地处黄河中游二级阶地的渑池县班村遗址中浮选出的大量植物果实和种子 ,鉴定后得知 ,在约7000a BP裴李岗文化层中有栎、朴、山茱萸、紫苏和野大豆 ,反映当时该地的植被应属暖温带落叶阔叶林区 ,古代先民主要以渔猎采集植物为生 ,至约4500a BP前的庙底沟二期文化层中出现的是大量粟和黍等栽培农作物的种子 ,表明当时先民已转变成驯养栽培经济 ,自然植被遭受破坏。这些植物遗存的发现 ,在植物学、环境考古学和古人类学的研究上 ,具有重要的意义。

Abstract: Bancun site, which is a tanelevation of about 230 meters, is located on the second terrance in middle reach of Yellow river, Henan Province.
The paper deal with the plant fruits and seeds obtained from the Peligang and the second period of Miaodegou culture. During the about 7000aBP. the Bancun site used to be covered by warm-temperate broad-leaf deciduaus trees, consisted of Quercus, Celtis, Cornus and etc. Mianwhile some herbaceous plants, such as Perilla frutescens and Glycine soja might have grown in the wetlands of Bancun locality.
Judging from the nature of cultivated species, such as Setalia italica and Panicum milliaceum during 4500aBP. or so , forest was decreased by Human ultization and reconstuction of natural environment in prehistoric time of the second period in Miaodegou culture. Moreover, there′s a difference between in labor tool and farmig and fishery-hunting in primitive ecoromy of Bancun site.
So , this paper is based on the datum of plant remains discovery at Bancun site provided important information for study cultural development and natural environment changes in middle reach, Yellow river. It is pointed out that plant evidence is still short for Yangshao culture ( the first period of Miaodegou) , so , it is necessary to make further investigation.
