【摘要】 中国旧石器时代的骨器和角器研究已有70多年历史。这一研究历史可分为3个阶段:起步阶段,伴随周口店遗址的系统发掘以出土的动物骨骼为研究对象确定是否存在骨器和角器;发展阶段,随着旧石器地点和遗址的不断发现所出土的材料不断积累而逐渐丰富起来,使得对骨器和角器的观察和研究逐渐深入,研究目的围绕骨、角器的制作方法、类型、功能及起源;成熟阶段,引入先进的观察设备,在观察研究出土标本的同时进行实验考古学检验,验证观察研究结果,从而从众多的假说中筛选出有试验依据的理论。虽然经过70多年的发展旧石器时代的骨、角器研究已具备了相当的基础,但仍有不少问题需要积累更多的材料和进行更多的实验才能逐渐得到解决。更多还原

【Abstract】 It has been more than 70 years since the beginning of the research on Paleolithic boneartifacts and hornwork in China.This history can be divided into three stages.The startingstage is accompanying the systematic excavations of the Zhoukoudian(formally spelled asChoukoutien)Site and focused on the determination of the presence of bone artifacts andhornwork in China.The developing stage is characterized by increase of material collectionfrom new discovered sites,the accumulation of different types of artifacts,the researchobjectives are oriented to the methods of artifact manufacturing,the types of bone artifactsand hornwork,their function and origin etc.The maturating stage is characterized by theintroduction of advanced observation equipment and application of experimentalarchaeology,the interpretations on the unearthed artifacts are tested by the experiments andthe proved theories are more convincing.The advancement in the research on bone andhorn artifacts is evident for the past 70 years,but there are still some problems need to besolved and more evidences and patient collection and observation are required in theresearch.更多还原
