摘要考古遗址内和考古遗址区域内的沉积物提供了关于古环境和过去人类活动的宝贵信息来源。对沉积物的成分、结构和结构的检测已在许多不同类型的地点成功地用于重建古气候。沉积物分析还被用于识别活动区和解释考古遗址的形成和破坏过程。此外，沉积物分析可以用来阐明生存-定居系统的变化与环境变化之间的关系。考古学中的沉积物分析方法除了标准的沉积学方法外，还包括特殊的微考古分析方法。
AbstractSediments in and in the area of archaeological sites provide an invaluable source of information on palaeoenvironments and past human activities. Examination of the composition, texture, and structure of sediments has been used successfully in many sites of different kinds to reconstruct palaeoclimates. Sediment analysis has also been used in recognizing activity areas and in interpreting the processes involved in the formation and destruction of archaeological sites. In addition, sediment analysis can be applied to elucidate the relationship between changes in subsistence-settlement systems and environmental change. The methods of sediment analysis in archaeology includes, in addition to the standard sedimentological methods, special microarchaeological analyses.
