| 英文摘要 | Situated in the semi-arid regions of North China, the Nihewan Basin documents the fluvio-lacustrine sequence and Pleistocene archaeological sites, offering an excellent opportunity to investigate human adaptation to environmental change in East Asia, especially in North China. However, paleoenvironmental datasets from Middle Pleistocene archaeological sites are not fully understood. Focusing on the evidence from the 0.63-0.49 Ma-old site of Jijiazhuang (Nihewan Basin, North China), this paper presents the results of various environmental indicators from the site context. Moreover, it explores the links between hominin behavioral adaptations and ecological variability during the extra-long interglacial period in North China. Sedimentological features of the excavated section indicate that the site was formed in the margin of the Nihewan paleolake. Based on well-constructed pollen, sediment grain size, color reflectance, and major geochemical element analyses, five stages of environmental changes were identified during site formation. This study indicates that hominins occupied the site at the early part of Stage 2, when the Nihewan paleolake had a relatively low water level and the climate was temperate, with strong weathering intensity dominated by wooded grassland landscapes. In conclusion, the results suggest that the extra-long duration of interglacial or mild stadial climate events (MISs 15-13) in the Northern Hemisphere may have provided favorable conditions for increased technological innovations and adaptive strategies among Middle Pleistocene hominins in the Nihewan Basin even in North China. |
