摘要
西方学者较早关注陶器所反映的人类行为与社会方面的信息，注重运用各种自然科学手段复原陶器技术史，并建立考古学文化的时空框架。20世纪50年代，他们提出“操作链”的概念，作为构建古代技术与社会的一种途径，即通过静态的考古遗存来研究动态的生产过程。
This paper made chemical composition and microscopic analyses to 172 pottery samples unearthed at the Xichengyi Site. The results showed that pastes of the pottery wares of different cultures found in this site all contained high proportions of calcium and magnesium, and the mineral composition of the sandy pottery was similar to that of the eolian loess, hinting that the potters at that time might have made the pottery pastes with red clay or red clay tempered with a given proportion of loess. The chemical composition and microscopic analyses also showed that when the Machang Type of Majiayao Culture entered the Hexi Corridor, its pottery paste material processing technique was changed： one was from the late phase of Machang Type via the Xichengyi Culture to the Siba Culture; the other was from the late phase of Machang Type to the Qijia Culture. The social groups represented by Xichengyi Culture and Qijia Culture might both have independent pottery- making industry.
