Abstract

We present the results of multivariate and exploratory statistical analyses of a large dataset that includes zooarchaeological, archaeobotanical, chrono‐cultural and proxy environmental data. Data are drawn from published specialist reports from 39 archaeological sites and include 49 distinct chronological contexts dated from the Chalcolithic to Bronze Age (c.5300–1500 BCE) in southern Central Asia. Results support broad observations on the stability of agro‐pastoral subsistence, while indicating that the environment had a minor influence in comparison with the economic and cultural use of species, as revealed through subtle variations across sites and as packages of co‐occurring taxa that link sites within integrated socio‐economies.

综合考古生物学和环境数据集的元分析：揭示中亚南部旧石器时代和青铜时代社会经济的隐藏趋势

我们介绍了对包括动物考古学、考古植物学、年代文化和代用环境数据在内的大型数据集进行多元和探索性统计分析的结果。这些数据来自已发表的 39 个考古遗址的专家报告，包括中亚南部从旧石器时代到青铜时代（约公元前 5300-1500 年）的 49 个不同年代背景。研究结果支持对农牧业生存稳定性的广泛观察，同时表明，与物种的经济和文化利用相比，环境的影响较小，这体现在不同遗址之间的微妙变化，以及将遗址与综合社会经济联系在一起的共生类群。

期刊介绍： Archaeometry is an international research journal covering the application of the physical and biological sciences to archaeology, anthropology and art history. Topics covered include dating methods, artifact studies, mathematical methods, remote sensing techniques, conservation science, environmental reconstruction, biological anthropology and archaeological theory. Papers are expected to have a clear archaeological, anthropological or art historical context, be of the highest scientific standards, and to present data of international relevance. The journal is published on behalf of the Research Laboratory for Archaeology and the History of Art, Oxford University, in association with Gesellschaft für Naturwissenschaftliche Archäologie, ARCHAEOMETRIE, the Society for Archaeological Sciences (SAS), and Associazione Italian di Archeometria.
