摘要
达吉斯坦中部早更新世地层遗址的考古数据被安排在一个直接的地层序列中,这使得在120万年的时间里重建石器工业的变化成为可能,从~2.0到0.8 Ma BP,并区分高加索早旧石器时代文化的主要阶段。本研究检查了在ainikaba - mukhkay群体遗址发现的空白,如ainikaba -1、Mukhkay-1、-2和-2a。在Oldowan和Oldowan到Acheulean过渡阶段出现了大片状坯(>10 cm)。这种空白出现在Jaramillo古地磁期(~1.07 Ma BP)开始。到早更新世末期,它们的份额达到了形态不同工具空白总数的25.77%。在Oldowan矿床(~2 Ma BP)中不存在。总体统计资料表明,该地区划分为1.0 ~ 0.8 Ma BP的Oldowan - Acheulean过渡阶段。
Evolution of the Lithic Industry in Central Dagestan During the Early Pleistocene: The Rising Occurrence of Flake Blanks
Archaeological data from stratified Early Pleistocene sites in Central Dagestan are arranged in a direct stratigraphic sequence, making it possible to reconstruct the changes in lithic industry over a span of 1.2 mln years, from ~2.0 to 0.8 Ma BP, and to separate the principal stages in the Early Paleolithic culture of the Caucasus. This study examines blanks found at sites of the Ainikab-Mukhkay group, such as Ainikab-1, and Mukhkay-1, -2, and -2a. Occurrences of large flake blanks (>10 cm) at the Oldowan and the Oldowan to Acheulean transitional stage are provided. Such blanks appear at the beginning of the Jaramillo paleomagnetic episode (~1.07 Ma BP). By the end of the Early Pleistocene, their share attains 25.77 % of the total number of blanks for morphologically distinct tools. They are absent in Oldowan deposits (~2 Ma BP). The totality of statistical data justifies the separation of the transitional Oldowan to Acheulean stage in the region, dating to 1.0–0.8 Ma BP.
期刊介绍:
This international journal analyzes and presents research relating to the archaeology, ethnology and anthropology of Eurasia and contiguous regions including the Pacific Rim and the Americas. The journal publishes papers and develops discussions on a wide range of research topics including: Quaternary geology; pleistocene and Holocene paleoecology ; methodology of archaeological, anthropological and ethnographical research, including field and laboratory study techniques; early human migrations; physical anthropology; paleopopulation genetics; prehistoric art; indigenous cultures and ethnocultural processes.
