摘要：通过重新对岭南距今2-1万年间的遗存进行年代分析发现，陶器的存在与否不是遗存年代早晚所致，而是空间差异的显示。结合石器、骨角器以及植物遗存的差异，本文将该类遗存划分为南北两大类型。北部类型存在陶器，多见石铲、骨铲等工具；南部类型不含陶器，少见铲类工具。两大类型的分化，反映的是生计适应策略的差异。

Abstract: Based on a re-analysis on the dating of archaeological sites from 20,000 years ago to 10,000 years ago in Lingnan (the south of the Five Ridges) Area, this paper suggests the discovery of vessels were dependent on the site’s location, rather than the date of the site. According to the regional differences of stone and bone tools and flora remains, the sites are divided into two types, the northern type and the southern type. Pottery wares, stone or bone shovels are more commonly found in the northern type sites, and these artifacts are very rare in the southern type sites, owing to the differences of livelihood between them.
