摘要

图宾根大学在阿曼苏丹国Al-Khashbah进行的考古研究揭示了一个大型青铜时代早期(公元前3000年)遗址。在密集的地表调查和挖掘过程中,发现了一些地面石器。它们中的大多数来自纪念性的石头和泥砖结构(即所谓的塔)附近,显然与铜加工废物有关,如炉渣、熔炉碎片和颗粒,即熔融铜液滴。因此,假设这些磨石工具是在铜加工的操作程序中使用的。有趣的是,只有公元前3000年上半叶,即哈菲特时期的纪念塔,才有大量的磨石工具和铜加工废料。公元前3千年下半叶,也就是乌姆安那时期的塔楼,没有。在本文的范围内,将介绍Al-Khashbah不同类型磨石工具的分布及其发现背景。他们用Agisoft Photoscan软件处理的数字摄影创建的3D模型生成的图纸进行了说明。与阿拉伯东部其他公元前3000年遗址的比较表明,在那里,铜加工遗迹通常与磨制石器有关。该区域的总体类型似乎相当单一。

Ground stone tools from the copper production site Al-Khashbah, Sultanate of Oman
Archaeological research at Al-Khashbah, Sultanate of Oman, conducted by the University of Tubingen, revealed a large Early Bronze Age (3rd millennium BCE) site. During the intensive surface survey and excavations, several ground stone tools were found. Most of them came from the vicinity of monumental stone and mud-brick structures, so-called towers, and are clearly connected to copper-processing waste such as slag, furnace fragments and prills, i.e., droplets of molten copper. Therefore, it is assumed that these ground stone tools were used within the operational procedures of copper-processing. Interestingly, only the monumental towers from the first half of the 3rd millennium BCE, i.e., the Hafit period, feature larger quantities of ground stone tools as well as copper processing waste. Towers from the second half of the 3rd millennium BCE, i.e., the Umm an-Nar period, have none. Within the scope of this paper, the distribution of the different types of ground stone tools in Al-Khashbah as well as their find context will be presented. They are illustrated with drawings generated from 3D models created using digital photography processed with the software Agisoft Photoscan. Comparisons with other 3rd millennium BCE sites in Eastern Arabia show that there as well, copper-processing remains are often associated with ground stone tools. The overall variety of types seems to be rather homogeneous in the region.
