PIXE and INAA studies on ancient potteries from Guangfulin relics in Shanghai

This paper reports the study of ancient potteries unearthed from the Guangfulin site in Shanghai. From the external features of these potteries, archeologists can classify them into two different cultural types: Liangzhu culture (local culture) and a new culture which might be derived elsewhere, but they can not recognize whether they were produced in the same place. Proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE) and instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) were used to measure the chemical compositions of the samples and the results were analyzed using multivariate statistics. We found that the two methods can complement each other and their database can be mutually referenced in the study of ancient potteries. Experimental results show that the compositions of the potteries from the two cultural types are different, which means that the materials for ancient potteries of new culture originate from elsewhere. This supports the archaeologists’ speculation that a group of ancient people migrated to Shanghai from some other places 4000 years ago.

Genetic variation in the New World: Ancient teeth,bone, and tissue as sources of DNA

Examination of ancient and contemporary Native American mtDNA variation via diagnostic restriction sites and the 9-pb Region V deletion suggests a single wave of migration into the New World. This is in contrast to data from Torroni et al.³⁴ which suggested two waves of migration into the New World (the NaDene and Amerind). All four founding lineage types are present in populations in North, Central, and South America suggesting that all four lineages came over together and spead throughout the New World. Ancient Native American DNA shows that all four lineages were present before European contact in North America, and at least two were present in South America. The presence of all four lineages in the NaDene and the Amerinds argues against separate migrations founding these two groups, although admixture between the groups is still a viable explanation for the presence of all four types in the NaDene.     

围棋起源新证

学术界都把先秦献中的“弈”看作围棋，因此把围棋的起源确定在先秦时代，其实先秦古籍所记载的四条“弈”字资料，在先秦多作动词下棋讲，或指博棋，非指围棋，可靠的围棋史料出现在西汉晚期，考古所见的围棋实物资料出现在东汉晚期，因此围棋当起源和形成于西汉时期。     

郭店楚简《老子》中的假借字

1993年湖北荆门郭店出土的战国中期简本《老子》甲、乙、丙,是迄今所见年代最早的《老子》传抄本。简本中大量使用假借字、异体字,真实反映了当时楚地的用字情况,为研究汉字的发生、发展提供了重要材料。本文试对简本《老子》甲、乙、丙中所用假借字进行分类、考察,以期能对汉字发展史的研究提供一点材料。     

释"臬"

文章分析了“臬”字的甲骨文形体，该词为上从“自”下从“木”的会意字。在综合考察“臬”的形体构造、“臬”一词在早期典籍中的用法以及“臬”的同源词的情况以后，“臬”一词完整的发生背景可重构为：把刑罚所割去的鼻子置于树干上当作箭靶来射。     

唐代文化名门的典籍收藏与保存

唐代文化名门是唐代私人藏书的主要群体，他们大多是学者身份，主要为用而藏。唐代藏书文化的繁荣与印刷技术和书画业贸易的繁荣有着密切的联系。文化名门所藏的书籍既是他们精神的一种寄托又是他们自我标榜的重要工具和传承家族文化的重要手段，浩如烟海的书籍为子孙后代的读书学习营造了良好的氛围同时也提供了极大的诬利，藏书——读书——再藏书俨然成为文化君门区别于其他家族的一大特色。唐代文化名门在图书的收集、整理和保存的过程中积累了很多经验，他们为祖国文化的传承做出了巨大的贡献。
