摘要
新石器时代两湖地区气候温暖湿润,自然资源丰富。早期生产力低下的人们,渔猎采集是主要的谋生手段,因此对生存环境的选择也以低山丘陵向平原的过渡地带为主。随着技术的不断积累、对环境认识的逐渐深刻,稻作农业成为了当地人们日常生活的主要来源。这时人们对生存环境的选择也突破了低山丘陵的限制,逐渐进入适合农业生产的平原地区。在这一转变过程中,气候、水文等环境要素的波动也在时刻影响着各时期的人类活动。
During the Neolithic Period, Hubei and Hunan had a warm and humid climate and abounded in natural resources. Before the Neolithic people mainly lived on fishing and hunting, therefore they preferred transitional zones between hilly areas and plains as their preferred environment. With the continuous development of technology and increased environmental awareness, rice agriculture began to supply the main staple for the people. Thus, Neolithic settlers are no longer restricted to hilly areas, opening up the plain as their new econiche due to their preference on agricultural production. Due to this change, environmental factors such as climate and hydrology continue to affect the human activities in a different way.
