In the Middle Neolithic (5-4 thousand BC) in the northeastern China farming centers were developed in southern regions under the influence of the migrants from the middle Huanghe, while in the north the appropriating forms of economy were still dominating. Comparative analysis of five cultures from different geographic zones - the Liaodong Peninsula, the Liaohe Plain, the Liaoxi uplands, the Songnen Plain, the Sanjiang Plain has been carried out. Settlement complexes were analyzed by the quantitative indices of stone tools, their functional diversity, concentration of dwellings in one settlement, their purpose and duration of residence. The purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation of the agriculture dispersal in a particular geographic area with the natural conditions and coexistence of several stages of agriculture development in one region.
东北地区新石器时代中期（公元前5—4千年）在黄河中游移民的影响下，南方地区发展了农耕中心，而北方地区仍以农业和打猎为主。对辽东半岛、辽河平原、辽西高原、松嫩平原、三江平原五个不同地理区域的文化进行了比较分析。通过石器数量指标、其功能多样性、建筑物集中度、居住用途和居住期限等指标对聚落群进行分析。本研究旨在分析每一地理区域的农业扩散的速度与古代集体的自然生境之间的关系。
