摘要
对我国旧石器时代30处有关用火遗迹所得到的研究结果进行的详细分析,可以看出当时所用的主要材料是石质、骨质、角质和木质材料。这些材料在火烧后产生组织和性能的变化为古人类用热处理改性提供了可能。结果表明,早在70万年前,中国古人类在旧石器早期的鹿角加工上就采用了热处理,这是人类历史上的一项重大进步。旧石器中、晚期,古人将热处理更多地用在骨质材料加工上,在牛河梁遗址发现的红烧土面有可能是岩石经火烧后的产物。这说明早期人类有可能在岩石加工中采用了热处理。在中国尚未发现中国古人类在木质材料上采用了热处理。
The study results on artifacts from 30 paleolithic sites concerning the uses of fire were reviewed and analyzed. It is found that the main materials used in the Paleolithic Age were stone, wood, horn and bone. The structures and properties of all the materials can be changed after fired and baked,which provided the possibilities for using heat treatment methods by the primitive men. The results indicated that as early as 700 Ka ago, Chinese men in the early paleolithic age had already adopted heat treatment methods to antlers＇ processing. This is one of most important achievements in mankind history. In the middle or late paleolithic age, heat treatment methods were more frequently applied to make bone tools. The red-baked powder unearthed in Niuheliang site might be the product from rock after fired, which seamed that heat treatment method might be also applied to the stone materials. In China ,there is no evidence that the primitive men used the heat treatment method in wooden materials.
