摘　　要：以亚洲为中心的稻作农业,有着广泛的地理分布和悠久的历史传统,在人类经济文化的发展上起着非常重要的作用。从考古发现上证实,中国拥有最古老的稻作遗迹和丰富的稻作文化。关于稻作文化的起源及其传播途径,也就成为学术界关注的焦点之一。不过这些研究从不同学科的角度出发,因而结论也往往相异。本文以稻作的起源及其向东北亚的传播为重点。The Asian-centered rice-planting culture had a wide distribution and long history. There have been different hypotheses concerning the origin of rice planting——Assam,Yunnan, East Asian crescent and middle and lower streams of the Changjiang. Archaeologically,China has the earliest site and a rich culture of rice planting. The archaeological finds support thetheory which traces rice planting back to the middle and lower streams of the Changjiang. Itspowerful influence of Chinese rice planting on the surrounding areas is well evinced by discover-ies in Korea and Japan. Scholars split over the question where the route of the eastward spread ofrice planting lay. There are again several hypotheses: North China, East China and South Chi-na. The author believes it was via. East China that rice planting spread to Korea and Japan inroughly same time. Apart from the remains of rice planting, discovery of remains of moated set-tlement, pile-structure, stepped stone adze, wooden si(farming tool)and painted blck pottery in Japan and the southern part of Korea indicated a close affinity of the areas with China, somethingthat came as a result of the cultural exchange on the sea.
