Jochim With national Science Foundation support, Drs. Michael Jochim and Margaret Glass will continue their archaeological study of an area of Southern Germany which runs from the Swabian Alb, across the Danube River to the Alps. It thus includes a variety of environmental zones. Archaeological evidence indicates that human prehistoric occupation was extensive and ranged across time to include Paleolithic hunters and gatherers, specialist Mesolithic collectors and Neolithic agriculturalists. Drs. Jochim and Glass want to understand how humans adapted to this region under the different climatic conditions which include both the terminal Ice Age and warmer postglacial times. To accomplish this, they will compile a data base which contains both environmental and cultural information and will integrate these materials through use of a geographic information system (GIS). Known sites will be recorded and overlain on an environmental base. Both surface and subsurface survey will then be employed to locate additional archaeological occurrences. The GIS will permit the team to relate behavior to environment and to determine how behavior changed in different subregions, in different climatic regimes, and at different levels of technological development. This research is important because it will provide insight into how humans adapt to and interact with their environment. This process is dynamic, not static and archaeological data, which covers long periods of time provide unique insight into this issue. The project will also produce data of interest to many archaeologists and will assist in the training of graduate students.

约希姆 在国家科学基金会的支持下，Michael Jochim博士和Margaret Glass博士将继续对德国南部的一个地区进行考古研究，该地区从斯瓦比亚阿尔卑斯山开始，穿过多瑙河到达阿尔卑斯山。因此，它包括各种环境区。考古证据表明，人类史前的占领是广泛的，跨越时间的范围，包括旧石器时代的猎人和采集者，中石器时代的专业收藏家和新石器时代的农学家。Jochim博士和Glass博士希望了解人类如何在不同的气候条件下适应这一地区，包括冰河时代末期和温暖的冰后期。为了实现这一目标，他们将建立一个数据库，其中包括环境和文化信息，并将通过使用地理信息系统将这些材料结合起来。将记录已知的场址，并以环境为基础加以覆盖。然后将进行地表和地下调查，以确定其他考古发现的位置。地理信息系统将使该小组能够将行为与环境联系起来，并确定不同次区域、不同气候状况和不同技术发展水平下的行为变化。 这项研究很重要，因为它将深入了解人类如何适应环境并与环境互动。这一过程是动态的，而不是静态的，考古数据涵盖了很长一段时间，为这一问题提供了独特的见解。该项目还将产生许多考古学家感兴趣的数据，并将协助培训研究生。
