今年1月19日是裴文中教授诞辰80周年。追忆往事,思绪万千,受教多年,永难忘怀。此时此刻,我想起了砸击石片,裴老师对它的研究,撞开了中国猿人文化之门。中国猿人文化的研究,连同他发现的中国猿人第一个头盖骨,确立了在人类进化过程中猿人阶段的存在,从而把人类历史提前到几十万年前。半个多世纪来,砸击石片和砸击技术的研究,有了可喜的成果,把它简要地作一介绍,以此来纪念裴老师之80诞辰。在我们面前展示的特殊的小石英片(图1),系1931年发现于周口店的鸽子堂石英Ⅱ层,是早期(1932年)被研究和发表的标本,当时叫“两端石片”或“两端碎片”,现在,考古工作者都熟识,它是砸击石片。
January 19 this year is the 80th anniversary of Professor Pei Wenzhong’s birth. Recall past, thoughts, taught for many years, never forget. At this moment, I remembered the hit stone, Pei teacher of its research, broke the door of the Chinese ape culture. The study of the Chinese ape-man culture, together with the first skull he discovered by the Chinese ape-man, established the existence of the ape-man stage in the evolution of mankind and thus advanced human history to hundreds of thousands of years ago. More than half a century, smash hit stone tablets and smash hit the technology research, with gratifying results, briefly introduce it as a memorial in honor of Pei teacher’s 80th birthday. The special piece of quartz (fig. 1) presented before us is the quartz layer II of the pigeon hall found in Zhoukoudian in 1931. It was a specimen studied and published in the early years (1932) “Debris at both ends,” now familiar to archaeologists, is a stone hit.
