| 摘要 | Systematic field investigations and excavations in the lower Yangtze River region have uncovered numerous open-air Palaeolithic sites, yielding a wealth of stone artifacts crucial for understanding lithic technological evolution and hominin adaptive behaviors during the Middle to Late Pleistocene in South China. However, chronological frameworks and technological patterns in this region remain underexplored. This study applies multiple luminescence dating techniques to establish precise age estimates for three Palaeolithic sites in the Chaohu Lake region of Anhui Province, South China. Our high-resolution geochronological results indicate site occupation from approximately 200 to 30 ka. The lower archaeological unit, containing large scrapers, cleavers, and handaxes, dates to 200-70 ka, marking the emergence of a Large Cutting Tool techno-complex during MIS 5, possibly extending into MIS 6 or 7. In contrast, the upper archaeological unit, dated to 60-30 ka, is dominated by small flakes and flaked tools, reflecting the development of lithic miniaturization and an increased reliance on high-quality raw materials during MIS 3. These findings reveal a technological shift from Acheulean large flake technology to the dominance of miniaturized flake tools from the late Middle Pleistocene to the Late Pleistocene, closely linked to environmental and ecological changes in South China. |
