摘　　要：文章运用体质人类学和人口学相关的理论和方法,对出自河北阳原姜家梁新石器时代遗址的古人类的人口寿命进行了详细研究。结果显示,男女两性的死亡高峰期是在壮年期和中年期,这种情况在中国古代人群中也是比较普遍的。这两个时期女性平均寿命和平均死亡年龄均高于男性,可能暗示女性寿命长于男性。研究结果表明:我国北方地区先秦时期的居民在性比构成上具有一个显著的特点,即时代越晚,性比越小;至少在新石器时代的晚期,女性的平均寿命已经开始长于男性了。Based on the methods of physical anthropology and demography,this paper makes an exhaustive study on the life-span of ancient people from Jiangjialiang in Hebei province.The results show that the sexual proportion between male and female is 1.49: 1,which means the proportion of gender is not balanced.The death rate of male is higher than that of female between age 15 to 23.However,the death rates of both male and female are high between age 24 to 55.This is a common phenomenon in ancient groups in China.It analyzes the gender proportion of and the reasons for the life-span difference between male and female,discovering that the average life-span of female is longer than that of male.It is particular that the smaller sexual proportion and the later age are,the average life-span of female is longer than that of male since the late Neolithic Age.
