Research On The Framework Of Space-time And Pedigree Structure Of Archeology Culture Of Neolithic Age In The Southern Area Of Northeast China

The first four chapters mainly discusses on the chronological sequence of theNeolithic culture in southern areas of Northeast China. Firstly, from the perspective ofgeographical and cultural tradition, the southern area of Northeast China will bedistinguished into4groups which are Southeastern Liaoning area, Western Liaoning,Northern Liaodong area, South of Songliao Watershed. Secondly, the stage and age ofthe Neolithic culture are discussed in the thesis, and the chronological sequence ofarchaeological cultural relics of these areas is established.In the fifth chapter, based on the corresponding relations of the archaeologicalculture, the Neolithic cultural relics in the southern area of Northeast China iseventually divided into ten periods through the crosswise comparison of age sequenceamong them. The ‘Zhi’ Pattern is one of the representative patterns of the southernarea of Northeast China and the remains with the representative of the ‘Zhi’ Pattern hasever played a vital role in the prehistoric culture development of southern northeastChina and even in the Northeast Asia. In this thesis, the ‘Zhi’ Pattern is the startingpoint, combining the features of Neolithic cultural remains of Southern northeastChina, the ten periods are grouped into three stages which are Pre-‘Zhi’ Pattern Age,‘Zhi’ Pattern Age, Post-‘Zhi’ pattern Age, and much further, different developmentperiods are divided under the framework of these three ages. Based on the research onthe longitudinal and horizontal comparison of archaeological culture, the temporalframework of Neolithic culture of southern area of Northeast China is established.The sixth chapter discusses on the research of the pedigree framework ofNeolithic culture of southern area of Northeast China. With the clue of thearchaeological cultural relations and regional distributions and with the focus ofevolution kinship reflected by the pottery decorations, the northeast area ofarchaeological culture is divided into four different cultural systems, and based on theresearch on the evolution of cultural systems, two patterns of original cultural systemand secondary cultural system are distinguished. Then, two models of consecutivedevelopment of one area and mobile development of multiple areas arediscussed.Thereafter, analyzing on the cultural background of these areas, the thesisdiscusses further on the relations among the different cultural systems’ communication, integration, expansion, migration in these areas. Eventually, from the view of adynamic way, the structure vicissitudes caused by the interactions among differentcultural systems at different development stages are explored.
