摘要
甘青地区史前时期的墓葬材料丰富,本文通过对未成年人墓葬数量的研究,认为甘青地区史前时期的未成年人并未完全葬入墓地,在集中埋葬的公共墓地以外,很可能存在以未成年人为主体的单独墓葬区。而以未成年人为主的墓葬区多在房址附近或者主体墓地边缘,以埋葬年龄较小的婴幼儿为主,其葬俗也与公共墓地的成年人相异。
The prehistoric funerary remains and artifacts in the Cransu-Qinghai region, which provide a valuable oppor- tunity to study ancient funeral customs, especially those related to juveniles. Based upon archaeological reports and brief re- ports, this paper synthesizes the scenario of prehistoric juvenile tombs in the region. The study shows that there are two charac- teristics represented by juvenile burial practices. One is not all juveniles were buried inside adult cemeteries; there are inde- pendent cemeteries that are exclusively for juveniles which usually are located at the edge of adult cemetery or surrounding houses. The other is the customs of juvenile burials which are different from the adult＇s in the same region.
