| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立東華大學 === 自然資源與環境學系 === 101 === The ceramics are the largest remains at the Neolithic sites. In order to control the strength of the potteries, the prehistoric potters would add temper into clay. Therefore we infer the source of the ceramics by analyzing the composition of the temper and comparing the geological background around the sites.
In this study, the ceramic shards from Huakangshan Site are analyzed by qualitative way－micro-Raman spectroscopy and quantitative way－petrographic analysis. In the first way, there are 20 different types of the ceramic shards analyzed by micro-Raman spectroscopy, and the result is that most of the main types of them contain pyroxene, so they might come from igneous rock area in the Coastal Range.
In the second way, we identify the thin sections including 59 ceramic shards from Huakangshan Site and 56 river sediments from the eastern Taiwan, and count each composition, the result show on the triangular diagram with [sedimentary and quartz]-[igneous]-[metamorphic] as end-members, from this we can classify different areas of the sediments. To compare ceramic shards with river sediments, we can find that the main types of the ceramics are similar to the the Coastal Range, and un-main types are closing to the southern section of the Central Mountain Range.
