摘要
Xicotó Rockshelter (Alòs de Balaguer, Lleida, Spain)位于伊比利亚东北部的前比利牛斯山脉东部,位于塞格雷河流域中部。自2013年以来,巴塞罗那大学史前研究与研究研讨会(SERP)的一个团队开展了考古工作,并确定了多达三个沉积层。保存下来的考古遗迹可以确定该遗址至少在两个不同的时期被占领:古代新石器时代和中石器时代中期。考古组合给出的相对年代已经被几个放射性碳年代所证实,这些年代表明该遗址的职业在公元前六千年和七千年之间。本文介绍了对整个岩屑组合中岩屑原料的分析结果。分析采用经典的岩石考古学方法,包括纹理和微古生物学描述,结合地球化学方法的应用,使用能量色散x射线荧光(ED-XRF)和激光烧蚀电感耦合等离子体质谱(LA-ICP-MS)。结果表明,在岩屑工具的配制中,选择了几种岩石类型,其中燧石岩是首选。已经确定了不同的类型和来源,并采用了涉及当地和区域采购的类似采购战略。
Geochemical Study of Chert Artefacts from Xicotó Rockshelter (NE Iberia) Archaeological Site. New Data on Neolithic and Mesolithic Human Occupations
Xicotó Rockshelter (Alòs de Balaguer, Lleida, Spain) is located in the eastern Pre-Pyrenean range in north-east Iberia, in the middle Segre River Basin. Since 2013, archaeological works have been developed by a team from the Prehistoric Studies and Research Seminar (SERP) at the University of Barcelona and up to three sedimentary levels have been identified. The preserved archaeological remains have allowed determining that the site was occupied during at least two different periods: the Ancient Neolithic and the Middle Mesolithic. The relative chronology given by the archaeological assemblage has been confirmed by several radiocarbon dates that place the occupations of the site to be during the VI and VII millennia cal BC. This paper presents the results obtained after the analysis of lithic raw materials from the entire lithic assemblage. The analysis was performed using the classic petroarchaeological approach, comprising textural and micropalaeontological descriptions, combined with the application of geochemical methods, using energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) and laser-ablation inductively-coupled-plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). The results show that several rock types were selected for confectioning the lithic tools, among which chert was the preferred. Different types and origins have been identified, with similar sourcing strategies that involved local and regional procurement.
