墓葬所体现社会等级分化的碳氮稳定同位素分析

摘要

墓葬所体现的社会等级分化研究对于我们了解古代人类社会组织结构，复原古代人类社会生活具有重要意义。目前，国内外传统方法主要依赖于对墓葬形制、规格、随葬品组合等进行的墓葬等级制度研究。随着科学技术的进步，自然科学手段逐步应用到考古学研究之中，20世纪60~70年代兴起的骨骼胶原蛋白稳定同位素分析已经成为考古学研究的重要手段。本文分析了国内外目前对墓葬所体现社会等级分化的传统研究方法，探讨了骨胶原碳氮稳定同位素方法在此研究领域的分析原理、研究案例等。%It is important and significant for understanding of ancient human social structure, reconstructing of ancient human social life based on the study of the social status stratification on tombs. Currently, the traditional methods are mainly dependent on the tomb rank system studies of the tomb patterns,specifications, and funerary objects. With the advancement of science and technology,natural science means are now being gradually applied in archaeological research. Since 1960-1970s,bone collagen stable isotope analysis has become an important analytical tool for archaeological research. This paper analysed the current traditional methods research of the social status stratification which reflected in the tombs,investigated the method of bone collagen stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis theory,case studies in this research field,and so on.
