Handaxes have a uniquely prominent role in the history of Palaeolithic archaeology, and their early study provides crucial information concerning the epistemology of the field. We have little conclusive evidence, however, of their investigation or societal value prior to the mid seventeenth century. Here we investigate the shape, colour and potential flake scarring on a handaxe-like stone object seen in the Melun Diptych, painted by the French fifteenth-century artist Jean Fouquet, and compare its features with artefacts from diverse (including French) Acheulean handaxe assemblages. Commissioned by a high-status individual, Étienne Chevalier, Fouquet's work (Étienne Chevalier with Saint Stephen) depicts an important religious context, while the handaxe-like object points to the stoning to death of an important Christian saint. Our results strongly support the interpretation that the painted stone object represents a flint Acheulean handaxe, likely sourced from northern France, where Fouquet lived. Identifying a fifteenth-century painting of a handaxe does not change what we know about Acheulean individuals, but it does push back the evidence for when handaxes became a prominent part of the ‘modern’ social and cultural world.
手斧在旧石器时代考古学的历史上具有独特的突出作用,它们的早期研究提供了有关该领域认识论的关键信息。然而,我们几乎没有确凿的证据证明它们在17世纪中叶之前的调查或社会价值。在这里,我们研究了15世纪法国艺术家让·富凯(Jean Fouquet)在《梅伦双幅画》(Melun Diptych)中看到的一件手斧状石质物品的形状、颜色和潜在的碎片疤痕,并将其与来自不同(包括法国)阿舍利手斧组合的文物进行了比较。受社会地位高的人Étienne Chevalier的委托,Fouquet的作品(Étienne Chevalier with Saint Stephen)描绘了一个重要的宗教背景,而手斧状的物体则指向一位重要的基督教圣人被石头砸死。我们的研究结果有力地支持了这样的解释,即彩绘的石头物体代表了一把燧石阿舍利手斧,可能来自法国北部,Fouquet居住的地方。确定一幅15世纪的手斧画并不能改变我们对阿舍利人的了解,但它确实推迟了手斧何时成为“现代”社会和文化世界重要组成部分的证据。

A small rural stopover along overland Maya and Aztec trade and travel routes was identified in surveys and excavations at adjacent settlements and shrines at Mensabak, Chiapas, Mexico. This collection of Late Postclassic to Spanish conquest-era (c.ad 1350–1650) Maya sites are similar in function to rural Old World and Andean caravan stopovers, such as caravanserai and way stations, where travellers and traders obtained supplies, trading partners, safety, solidarity through ritual and travel information along long-distance land routes. These sites are similar to trading ports and pilgrimage centres, but they are smaller, located in the countryside, not often managed by regional states, and have scaled-down economic exchange with fewer exotic trade items. Stopovers often include landscape and rock-art shrines for collective ritual among foreign travellers and local populations. While investigators have researched the anthropological importance of overland routes, caravans and trade centres, less attention has been given to stopover sites in the countryside. This article discusses the archaeological signatures and outlines the comparative social, economic and ritual implications of small rural stopover sites that united people on the road.
在墨西哥恰帕斯州Mensabak附近的定居点和神殿的调查和挖掘中,发现了玛雅人和阿兹特克人在陆上贸易和旅行路线上的一个小农村中转站。这一系列的后古典晚期到西班牙征服时代(公元1350-1650年)的玛雅遗址,在功能上与旧大陆和安第斯山脉的乡村商队中转站相似,比如商队驿站和驿站,旅行者和商人在这里通过仪式和长途陆路旅行信息获得物资、贸易伙伴、安全、团结。这些地点类似于贸易港口和朝圣中心,但它们规模较小,位于农村,通常不受地方政府管理,并且与较少的外来贸易项目进行了规模较小的经济交换。中途停留的地方通常包括风景和岩石艺术圣地,供外国游客和当地居民举行集体仪式。虽然调查人员已经研究了陆路路线、商队和贸易中心在人类学上的重要性,但对农村中转站的关注却很少。本文讨论了考古签名,并概述了将人们团结在路上的小型农村中转站的比较社会,经济和仪式含义。

This paper describes the analysis of the Late Prehispanic rock-art site of Villavil 2 (Catamarca, Argentina). Despite its modest and inconspicuous nature, this is one of the few examples of rock-art sites known in the area to date. The relationship of the site with the surrounding landscape and the distribution of rock art throughout the site are analysed using a combination of GIS and 3D modelling. This analysis makes it possible to gain an understanding of the factors behind the location and distribution of rock art on different spatial scales. The interpretation presented here suggests that this rock art reproduces, on a modest local scale, patterns of production of Inka landscapes of control and dominion that have been recognized elsewhere, in sites with a much more obvious monumental scale. The internal organization of the site mimics, on a small scale, forms of interaction with the wider landscape that have been regionally observed, usually focusing on more conspicuous elements such as architecture.
本文描述了对阿根廷卡塔马卡村2号晚前西班牙时期岩石艺术遗址的分析。尽管它的性质不起眼,但它是迄今为止该地区已知的为数不多的岩石艺术遗址之一。场地与周围景观的关系以及整个场地的岩石艺术分布都使用GIS和3D建模相结合的方法进行了分析。这种分析使我们有可能了解岩石艺术在不同空间尺度上的位置和分布背后的因素。这里提出的解释表明,这种岩石艺术在适度的地方规模上再现了因卡人控制和统治景观的生产模式,这种模式在其他地方的遗址中得到了更明显的纪念规模。场地的内部组织在小规模上模仿了与区域观察到的更广泛景观的互动形式,通常侧重于更显眼的元素,如建筑。

Historical phenomena often have prehistoric precedents; with this paper we investigate the potential for archaeometallurgical analyses and networked data processing to elucidate the progenitors of the Southwest Silk Road in Mainland Southeast Asia and southern China. We present original microstructural, elemental and lead isotope data for 40 archaeological copper-base metal samples, mostly from the UNESCO-listed site of Halin, and lead isotope data for 24 geological copper-mineral samples, also from Myanmar. We combined these data with existing datasets (N = 98 total) and compared them to the 1000+ sample late prehistoric archaeometallurgical database available from Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam and Yunnan. Lead isotope data, contextualized for alloy, find location and date, were interpreted manually for intra-site, inter-site and inter-regional consistency, which hint at significant multi-scalar connectivity from the late second millennium bc. To test this interpretation statistically, the archaeological lead isotope data were then processed using regionally adapted production-derived consistency parameters. Complex networks analysis using the Leiden community detection algorithm established groups of artefacts sharing lead isotopic consistency. Introducing the geographic component allowed for the identification of communities of sites with consistent assemblages. The four major communities were consistent with the manually interpreted exchange networks and suggest southern sections of the Southwest Silk Road were active in the late second millennium bc.
历史现象往往有史前先例;在本文中,我们探讨了考古冶金学分析和网络数据处理的潜力,以阐明西南丝绸之路在东南亚大陆和中国南部的起源。我们提供了40个考古铜基金属样品的原始微观结构、元素和铅同位素数据,其中大部分来自联合国教科文组织列入名录的哈林遗址,以及24个地质铜矿物样品的铅同位素数据,也来自缅甸。我们将这些数据与现有的数据集(总共98个)结合起来,并将它们与来自柬埔寨、老挝、泰国、越南和云南的1000多个晚期史前考古冶金数据库样本进行了比较。铅同位素数据,在合金背景下,发现地点和日期,手工解释了遗址内,遗址间和地区间的一致性,这暗示了公元前2000年晚期的重要多标量连接。为了在统计上验证这一解释,然后使用区域适应性生产衍生的一致性参数对考古铅同位素数据进行处理。利用Leiden社区检测算法进行复杂网络分析,建立了具有铅同位素一致性的人工制品群。引入地理成分可以识别具有一致组合的站点社区。这四个主要社区与人工解释的交换网络相一致,表明西南丝绸之路的南部部分在公元前2000年后期活跃。

The historic environment—comprising a palimpsest of landscapes, buildings and objects—carries meaning and plays a crucial role in giving people a sense of place, identity and belonging. It represents a repository of ever-accumulating collective and individually held values—shared perceptions, experiences, life histories, beliefs and traditions. These social or private values are mostly ascribed by people to familiar places within this environment based on the ontological security which this everyday heritage provides. However, these values are notoriously hard to capture and categorize. This makes it difficult to incorporate them into heritage-management strategies, which typically rely on objective, fact-based datasets. In this paper, we present a new methodology to capture those elusive values, by combining Topic Modelling with the principles of Grounded Theory. Results show that our novel approach is viable and replicable and that these important values can be effectively and meaningfully integrated, thus creating more inclusive approaches to heritage management than exist currently.
历史环境——包括景观、建筑和物体的重写本——承载着意义,在给人们一种地方感、认同感和归属感方面发挥着至关重要的作用。它代表了一个不断积累的集体和个人持有的价值观的宝库——共同的观念、经历、生活史、信仰和传统。这些社会或私人价值大多被人们归因于这个环境中熟悉的地方,这是基于这种日常遗产提供的本体论安全。然而,众所周知,这些值很难捕捉和分类。这使得很难将它们合并到遗产管理策略中,而遗产管理策略通常依赖于客观的、基于事实的数据集。在本文中,我们提出了一种新的方法,通过结合主题建模和扎根理论的原则来捕捉这些难以捉摸的值。结果表明,我们的新方法是可行的和可复制的,这些重要的价值可以有效和有意义地整合在一起,从而创造出比现有的更包容的遗产管理方法。

Direct or indirect evidence of ropemaking are scarce in European prehistory. Only a few references to Middle or Upper Palaeolithic remains are known to us, with more examples towards the Holocene. The archaeological contexts of ropes offer little information about possible uses, as the activities they are used for are often archaeologically invisible. However, some rock-art traditions shed some light on potential uses, worth exploring. In Spain, Levantine rock art offers the best graphic examples across Europe showing various uses of ropes, including climbing. Starting from the recently discovered climbing scene of Barranco Gómez site (Teruel, Spain), including the best preserved and more complex use of ropes seen so far in Levantine art, this paper analyses representations of ropes in this art, as well as their varieties and diverse uses. Our study suggests that different rope-making techniques were used by Levantine societies, which we believe are indicative of a complex rope-making technology, requiring a considerable investment of time and efforts. It also shows a certain variety of rope climbing techniques and rope climbing gear, illustrating that both were mastered by Levantine societies. Moreover, a preferential use of ropes in honey-hunting scenes is observed.
在欧洲的史前时期,绳索制作的直接或间接证据很少。我们只知道一些旧石器时代中期或晚期的遗迹,而更多的是全新世的例子。绳索的考古背景提供的可能用途信息很少,因为它们用于的活动通常是考古学上看不见的。然而,一些岩石艺术传统揭示了一些潜在的用途,值得探索。在西班牙,黎凡特岩石艺术为欧洲提供了最好的图形范例,展示了绳索的各种用途,包括攀岩。本文从最近发现的巴兰科Gómez遗址(西班牙特鲁埃尔)的攀爬场景出发,包括迄今为止在黎凡特艺术中保存最完好和更复杂的绳索使用,分析了绳索在这一艺术中的表现形式,以及它们的种类和不同用途。我们的研究表明,黎凡特社会使用了不同的制绳技术,我们认为这表明了一种复杂的制绳技术,需要大量的时间和精力投入。它还展示了各种各样的攀绳技术和攀绳装置,说明这两种技术都是由黎凡特社会掌握的。此外,人们还观察到在采蜜场景中优先使用绳索。

Making Wonder in Miniature: A New Approach to Theorizing the Affective Properties and Social Consequences of Small-Scale Artworks from Hellenistic Babylonia 微型创造奇迹:希腊化巴比伦小规模艺术作品情感特性和社会后果理论化的新途径

This article proposes an interpretive framework of paradox and wonder as a new approach to understanding the affective properties and social consequences of miniature objects in the archaeological record. Building upon current scholarly theories of miniatures as inherently intimate, this approach accounts for how small-scale artworks were also designed and deliberately manufactured to elude user attempts at full sensory access and immersive escapism. This desire-provoking tension between intimacy and distance—which lures viewers into small-scale encounters only to insist upon the object's life-size existence—is wonder, and it is what gives miniature objects their social relevance and ability not only to reflect, but also to influence, the real world. The benefits and applicability of this approach to miniaturization are illustrated through analysis of case studies of miniature objects (figurines, coins, seals and seal impressions, and jewellery) from Hellenistic Babylonia (Seleucid and Parthian periods in southern Mesopotamia, modern Iraq, 323 bce–ce 224).
本文提出了一个悖论和奇迹的解释框架,作为理解考古记录中微型物品的情感特性和社会后果的一种新方法。基于当前关于微缩模型本质上是亲密的学术理论,这种方法解释了小规模艺术品是如何被设计和故意制造的,以逃避用户对全感官访问和沉浸式逃避现实的尝试。这种亲密感和距离之间引发欲望的紧张关系——吸引观众进行小规模的接触,只是为了坚持物体的真人大小的存在——令人惊叹,正是这种关系赋予了微型物体社会相关性和能力,不仅能反映,还能影响现实世界。通过对希腊化巴比伦(美索不达米亚南部的塞琉古和帕提亚时期,现代伊拉克,公元前323年至公元前224年)的微型物品(雕像、硬币、印章和印痕以及珠宝)的案例研究,说明了这种小型化方法的好处和适用性。

Thus far, most researchers have focused on the cognition of fire use, but few have explored the cognition of firemaking. With this contribution we analyse aspects of the two main hunter-gatherer firemaking techniques—the strike-a-light and the manual fire-drill—in terms of causal, social and prospective reasoning. Based on geographic distribution, archaeological and ethnographic information, as well as our cognitive interpretation of strike-a-light firemaking, we suggest that this technique may well have been invented by Neanderthal populations in Eurasia. Fire-drills, on the other hand, represent a rudimentary form of a symbiotic technology, which requires more elaborate prospective and causal reasoning skills. This firemaking technology may have been invented by different Homo sapiens groups roaming the African savanna before populating the rest of the globe, where fire-drills remain the most-used hunter-gatherer firemaking technique.
到目前为止,研究人员大多集中在对火的使用认知上,而对造火认知的探索却很少。在此基础上,我们分析了两种主要的狩猎采集者生火技术——点灯和手工生火——在因果、社会和预期推理方面的各个方面。根据地理分布、考古和人种学信息,以及我们对“一击即燃”的认知解释,我们认为这种技术很可能是由欧亚大陆的尼安德特人发明的。另一方面,消防演习代表了一种共生技术的基本形式,它需要更复杂的前瞻性和因果推理技能。这种生火技术可能是由漫游在非洲大草原上的不同智人群体发明的,然后才移居到全球其他地方,在那里,消防演习仍然是最常用的狩猎采集者生火技术。
