太原土堂发现的旧石器
|
摘要
土堂旧石器地点位于太原盆地的北端,是太原境内汾河中游的一处旧石器时代早期地点,埋藏在太原西山山前黄土台地中。共获得石制品20件,包括石核、石片、砍砸器、刮削器、石球以及石锤等,其中砾石砍砸器最具特色。地质时代属于中更新世早期。
The Tutang Paleolithic locality is situated at the north of Tutang Village, Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province and its geographical position is 38°00′10″N, 112°25′50″E. Stratigraphically,the deposits constist of 11 layers,more than 18 meters in thickness.Twenty stone artifacts were collected from this site in 2000. The original position of the artifacts can be traced to the fifth paleosol layer.Artifacts consist of flakes, cores, scrapers, chopper/chopping tools, spheroids, etc. Hornfel is the most frequently used raw material. The chopper-chopping tools are the majority of the stone tools, and can be further classified into side choppers, side chopping tools and end choppers.Based on the analysis of geomorphology and stratigraphy, the age of Tutang Site has been (estima-)ted to be the Middle Pleistocene, i. e. the Lower Paleolithic. Tutang site is the first Paleolithic site discovered in north of the Taiyuan Basin.
