摘要
一、引言内蒙古中南部北接阴山山脉,南抵晋陕,西达河套平原,东至黄旗海附近地区^([1])。独特的地理位置使得该地区自古以来就是中原王朝与北方游牧民族的必争之地,也是中原农耕文化与草原游牧文化交流、碰撞、融合的关键区域。内蒙古中南部的开发始于夏、商、周时期,秦、汉时期达到高潮。战国时期,内蒙古中南部由东到西分布着燕、赵、秦三国,与北方匈奴、林胡、东胡、楼烦经常发生冲突,燕、赵、秦三国自是十分重视对内蒙古地区的统治,将领土扩大到内蒙古高原的南缘地带,筑长城,设郡县等^([2])。据考古资料和文献记载^([3]),燕国在强盛时占有内蒙古赤峰、通辽南部的部分地区;赵国强盛时占有内蒙古中南部部分地区;秦在战国时代北方与鄂尔多斯相连,战国末年进入九原、云中地区,灭赵国和燕国后,燕、赵全境归入秦。
Here we present the δ^(13)C and δ^(15)N results for the dietary reconstruction of animals from the Fuluta cemetery in the Ordos Plateau,a nomadic farming junction area,from the late Qin dynasty(221-207 BCE)to the Western Han dynasty(202 BCE-8 AD).Results show that the δ^(13)C and δ^(15)N values for pigs(-8.6±1.4‰,7.7±1.1‰,n=3),and dogs(-9.1±0.3‰,7.7±0.4‰,n=3)were generally higher than those for cattle(-15.7±1.4‰,6.5±1.0‰,n=8)and sheep(-17.8±0.9‰,6.2±1.6‰,n=11),indicating pigs,and dogs may have relied primarily on C_(4)-based food(millet),whereas cattle and sheep mainly relied on C_(3)-based food(wild plants).The data of this study are consistent with previous studies in the Central Plains,which suggests sheep mainly received their food from the wild vegetation ecosystem,and pigs and dogs consumed a high proportion of C_(4)-based food,with different amounts of animal protein that may have come from either human leftovers and/or feces.However,the values for cattle were significantly lower than the corresponding values for cattle found in the Central Plains,indicating the feeding method of local cattle in the Ordos Plateau was mainly reliant on wild vegetation,which differs from the tradition in the Central Plains.
