项目摘要

Dr. Michael E. Smith, Arizona State University, and a team of colleagues from the United States, Mexico, and Canada, will investigate the nature of early urbanism at the archaeological site of Teotihuacan, Mexico, one of the largest cities in the ancient New World. As cities become the dominant form of settlement in the world today, knowledge about the successful cities of the past can inform understanding of contemporary urbanism. The spatial patterns of urban expansion and decline in past cities show how city growth is connected to broader economic and political forces. This information can help scholars and planners devise strategies for improving cities and city life today. Much of this project will take place at the Arizona State University Teotihuacan Research Laboratory in Mexico, a facility that stores artifacts and anchors research at the site. The laboratory is a major piece of scientific infrastructure for archaeological research in Mexico, and its value will be strengthened by this project. Training will be provided for a postdoctoral scholar and both graduate and undergraduate students. Dr. Smith will create a comprehensive data archive for Teotihuacan that will benefit many researchers, and this work will contribute to the public understanding of science through various outreach activities designed to educate the public about Teotihuacan and ancient cities more generally.As one of the largest and most extensively studied ancient cities of the New World, the World Heritage Site of Teotihuacan holds important clues about ancient urban life. This project will complete the work of prior research at the site and ensure that the scientific results of past and present archaeological projects at Teotihuacan are made available for the public and for scholars now and in the future. Dr. Smith's team will complete artifact analyses, organize field notes and records into databases, archive the data on tDAR (The Digital Archaeological Record), and write reports on the research. These activities will permit a series of research questions to be answered for the first time. Teotihuacan had a unique form of social and political organization, including ethnic neighborhoods, and its residents maintained a remarkably high level of material prosperity. Were these two features related? How did the city's leaders and residents manage to create and maintain a successful city over a period of more than five centuries? What was the relationship between the city's major craft economy - obsidian tool production - and its growth and decline? More generally, what specific lessons do early cities have for urbanization today? This project will build on the foundation of a detailed archaeological map of Teotihuacan and an important yet incomplete database, to generate new findings and to archive data and results for future generations.

亚利桑那州立大学的迈克尔·e·史密斯博士和来自美国、墨西哥和加拿大的同事们将在古代新世界最大的城市之一——墨西哥特奥蒂瓦坎的考古遗址调查早期城市主义的本质。随着城市成为当今世界上主要的定居形式，关于过去成功城市的知识可以为理解当代城市主义提供信息。过去城市扩张和衰退的空间格局表明，城市增长是如何与更广泛的经济和政治力量联系在一起的。这些信息可以帮助学者和规划者制定改善城市和城市生活的策略。这个项目的大部分工作将在墨西哥的亚利桑那州立大学特奥蒂瓦坎研究实验室进行，这是一个储存文物和锚定研究的设施。该实验室是墨西哥考古研究的重要科学基础设施，该项目将加强其价值。培训将提供博士后学者和研究生和本科生。史密斯博士将为特奥蒂瓦坎建立一个全面的数据档案，这将使许多研究人员受益，这项工作将通过各种旨在教育公众更广泛地了解特奥蒂瓦坎和古城的外展活动，促进公众对科学的理解。作为新大陆最大、研究最广泛的古代城市之一，特奥蒂瓦坎世界遗产为古代城市生活提供了重要线索。该项目将完成先前在该遗址的研究工作，并确保特奥蒂瓦坎过去和现在的考古项目的科学成果现在和将来向公众和学者提供。史密斯博士的团队将完成人工制品分析，将现场笔记和记录整理到数据库中，将数据存档到tDAR（数字考古记录）上，并撰写研究报告。这些活动将使一系列研究问题第一次得到解答。特奥蒂瓦坎拥有独特的社会和政治组织形式，包括少数民族社区，其居民保持着相当高的物质繁荣水平。这两个特性相关吗？这个城市的领导人和居民是如何在五个多世纪的时间里创造和维持一个成功的城市的？这座城市的主要工艺经济——黑曜石工具生产——与其兴衰之间的关系是什么？更一般地说，早期的城市对今天的城市化有哪些具体的教训？该项目将建立在特奥蒂瓦坎详细的考古地图和一个重要但不完整的数据库的基础上，以产生新的发现，并为后代存档数据和结果。
