摘要 虽然遗址概念仍然是考古学的基础，但将遗址作为观察单位仍存在许多已知的实践和理论问题。在数字时代，地理空间技术使我们能够以模拟时代不可能实现的规模来检测、记录、索引和分析站点，而当站点的概念进入我们的词典时。我利用最近研究中的例子，对地理空间技术如何使我们对地点的看法变得复杂化进行了批判性回顾，特别是围绕三个趋势：1）遥感应用的增加； 2）我们使用高分辨率记录技术（例如 3D 扫描）进行现场观察的新方法； 3) 遗址索引必须平衡隐藏遗址位置以保护其免受不必要的访问和损坏与显示遗址位置作为倡导保护的必要先决条件之间的内在冲突。
ABSTRACT While the site concept continues to be fundamental to archaeology there are a number of known practical and theoretical problems with sites as units of observation. In the digital age, geospatial technologies give us the capacity to detect, record, index, and analyze sites at scales impossible in the analog age when the notion of a site entered our lexicon. Using examples from recent research, I present a critical review of how geospatial technologies have complicated how we think about sites, specifically centering on three trends: 1) increasing application of remote sensing; 2) the new ways we make field observations with high resolution recording techniques, like 3D scanning; and 3) site indices that must balance the inherent conflict between obscuring site locations to protect them from unwanted visitation and damage, and displaying site location as a necessary prerequisite of advocating for their protection.
