A Preliminary Study of Sedentism and Subsistence of Early Settlements on Inner Mongolian Plateau Based on New Archaeological Evidence in Bashang Region
Historically,Bashang Region was characterized by mixed farming and herding,complex ecological environments,and unstable livelihoods.Due to the relative scarcity of archaeological evidence from the Paleolithic and Neolithic periods,the study of early settlements and livelihoods has been very limited.Since 2010,the successive discovery of Yumin,Simagou,Xinglong,and Sitai has gradually and initially unveiled the face of early and middle Neolithic period.A comprehensive analysis of the published archaeological materials shows that this region experienced a process of increasing sedentism and complexity of livelihoods during Neolithic,which provides valuable insights into the understanding of early human-land relationship and social culture changes in Bashang region.
