摘　　要：2011~2012年统万城西城遗址,共出土动物种类10种,均为家养哺乳动物。从出土动物的种类来看,当时遗址周围的环境以草原为主,草原上有马、驴、牛、羊等各种食草动物,不远处有沙漠分布的自然景观。从人们对动物的利用情况来看,该遗址农业相对滞后,而以饲养家畜的畜牧业为主,这和其所处的农牧交错带及明长城外缘特殊地理位置相吻合。统万城人赖依生存的肉食来源主要是兽类中的羊和黄牛。饲养羊除了获取肉食资源外,开发其副产品羊皮、羊毛和奶也是古人饲养羊的另一主要目的。This paper presents the analytical results of the examination of faunal remains from the 2011-2012 season excavation at the Tongwancheng Xicheng site.The assemblage includes ten species of domesticated mammals.Since herbivores such as horse,donkey,cattle,and sheep/goat consist of the majority of identified species in the assemblage,it can be surmised that the landscape of the area was primarily covered by grassland with desert nearby during the occupation period of the site.Based on the husbandry and exploitation strategies,the scale of agriculture might be relatively under-developed at the site compared to the importance of animal food resources.In contrast,livestock husbandry appeared to play a major role in the economic subsistence.This economic subsistence strategy was consistent with the special geographical location that the site was located at the agropastoral ecotone.The meat consumption at the site relied on cattle and sheep/goat.Besides for meat consumption,the exploitation of secondary animal products,i.e.,sheep/goat skin,wool,and milk was also a goal of the husbandry.
