摘　　要：陶寺遗址位于山西省襄汾县陶寺镇，距今4300～3900年。经过多次较大规模的发掘，陶寺遗址成为我国规模最大的、显现文明化程度最高的史前聚落遗址之一，也是研究中国史前至夏商时期城址都市化进程中的一个重要的里程碑式遗址。本文通过热电离质谱分析方法对陶寺遗址中晚期遗迹出土的21个个体人类牙釉质的锶同位素比值进行了测定。结果表明，这些人类牙釉质的锶同位素比值平均值是0．711374（2σ=0．000680，n=21）。与以前建立的遗址当地的锶同位素比值范围比较可知，有6个个体可能在遗址当地出生，由此推测本地个体占总数28．6％左右；还有15个个体牙釉质的锶同位素比值在遗址当地的锶同位素比值范围以外，表明这些个体可能在其他地区出生，推测外来者占总数的71．4％左右。由此可知，在陶寺文化中期至晚期的陶寺遗址的先民中，存在很高比例的外来移民。The Taosi site is located at Xiangfen County, Shanxi Province. This site is large settlement site of Longshan culture,and it is dated to 4300 - 3900aB. P. The period from 4300 - 3900aB. P. in the plain of China, spans the transition from small communities to the beginning of complex societies and state formation. Archaeologists have focused on the Taosi site partly due to the visibility of its ＇ city sites＇ , and partly because of the hypothesized influence of such communities on the later development of the Xia and Shang Dynasties, associated with the palaces, tomb, bronze, and observatory. The purpose of our study is to discuss the problem of strontium isotope analysis be used to identify immigrant and indigenous at the Taosi site. Tooth Enamel samples from 21 individuals were analyzed for strontium isotope ratio （STSr/SaSr）, by the thermal ionization mass spectrometry. Molar were sampled whenever possible in human species. Through radiogenic strontium isotope analyses, we investigate the origins of the individuals who lived and died in medieval and late period at the Taosi site. Mean archaeological human enamel isotope values from the Taosi site are STSr/S6Sr= 0. 711374 （ 2tr = 0. 000680, n = 21 ）. Comparing these data with archaeological faunal data from and published the local strontium isotopes ratio range from Taosi site,we find out that 6 individuals could be native-born at the Taosi site and that 15 individuals from the Taosi site fell well outside the local strontium isotopes ratio range and were considered to be non-local. The extreme distribution of the outliers suggests they came from different geographically locations. The results show that 28.6% of the total number is local individuals; outsiders are 71.4% of the total population. There is higher proportion of immigrants at the Taosi site. In addition,the proportion of the migration of the 4100 - 3900aB. P. period was gradual increase. Measurement of strontium isotopes in archaeological skeletons is an effective technique for characte
