摘要
本文对2012～2013年陕北神木石峁遗址出土的大量动物遗存，按照考古遗迹单位进行了收集、分类、测量和鉴定。通过系统的分类和研究表明该遗址最少有15个属种，包括扬子鳄、环颈雉、褐家鼠、中华鼢鼠、草原鼢鼠、草兔、狗、马、家猪、山羊、绵羊和黄牛。根据对出土动物骨骼的分析结果表明：当时遗址周围是一个以草原为主，不远处有小片树林，草原和树林间有一定的水域，周围有沙漠的环境。经济类型是半农半牧形式，家养动物是石峁人的主要肉食来源，野生动物仅起着补充作用。
In 2012-2013, plenty of faunal remains were unearthed from the Shimao site at Shenmu county, northern Shaanxi Province. All faunal remains were collected systematically according to their archaeological contexts and were carefully classified, measured and identified. The identification results of these remains indicate the assemblage represents at least 15 species including yangtze alligator, pheasant, sewer rat, Myospalax fontanieri, Myospalax cansus, rabbit, dog, horse, domesticated pig, goat, sheep, cattle, etc. The identification of such taxa assemblage suggests the palaeo-climate of the site was more humid than the present-day environment. Since the nearby lanscape should include a large open savanna with shrubs and water area, suitable for both agriculture and animal husbandry. Domesticated animals were the main source for meat consumption, while wild animal hunting was supplementary in the subsistence strategies.
