How to Measure the Progress of Chinese Archaeology and the Exploration of the Origin of Chinese Civilization
It is an important theoretical question about how to measure the development of archaeology.It involves with the orientation and strategy of discipline development.Introspecting the history of modern archaeology,it can be found that the criteria are not same in different academic systems,periods and sub-fields.However,academic development is accumulative,and archaeology has its own fundamental task.It thus forms four criteria for measuring the development of archaeology.Using these criteria to measure the development of Chinese archaeology,whose academic level can be represented by the work in exploration of Chinese civilization,it can be found that there exists a phenomenon called as"faulted development",in which part of fields develop quickly,but theory is the short board.As far as exploration of Chinese civilization is concerned,a few measures can be adopted to promote the research on it,and set a successful example for other parts of Chinese archaeology.
