章节摘录

There were two patterns of settlement: one was set up on a terrace at the water's edge, another was on a high place above its surroundings. And the scale of group settlement had developed through a small —— large —— small process. Before the Yangshao Culture period (a Neolithic culture in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, dating back 5,000 to 7,000 years), settled communities were small, generally covering 10,000 to 20,000 square meters. During the Yangshao Culture period, large group settlement communities appeared. The largest of these covered several million square meters, though they were generally between 10,000 and 60,000 square meters. During-the period of Longshan Culture (a late Neolithic culture in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, dating back 4,000 to 4,900 years), the number of small group settlement communities covering areas less than 10,000 square meters increased. The number of inhabitants varied according to the size of communities. Before the Yangshao Culture period, a settlement community with a population of 80 to 200 was very common. During the Yangshao Culture period, the size of population was between 80 and 600 inhabitants. The largest community has been estimated to have had a possible population of 60,000. During the Longshan Culture period, about one-third of the communities had a population of less than 100, the rest having between 80 and 500. This shows an increase in migration during the late Neolithic Age.Most communities were divided into a dwelling area, a pottery kiln area and a graveyard. In the dwelling areas, there were houses and kiln pits. The layout of many small houses was usually centered round a large house or a square. Around community borders, ditches and high walls were usually built up for defense.Agriculture was the economic base of ancient civilization. All such civilizations in the world were based on agriculture, whether in the civilized regions of western, central and eastern Asia as well or in the ancient civilized region of Mexico. But the ancient farming skills in China, which have developed without a break over several thousands of years, are unique m the world. Agriculture was important in China at a very early stage.
