本文以冀中南地区为研究区，建立了冀中南地区新石器时代至春秋时期1023处聚落遗址分布特征的数据库，应用GIS空间分析方法，对聚落遗址的遗址域、海拔高程、密度、堆积特征进行了系统分析，揭示了研究区聚落遗址时空分布特征。结果表明：1）冀中南地区新石器时代到夏商时期，聚落遗址数量、遗址域面积、平均密度均迅速增加，到西周-春秋时期，又迅速降低；连续叠置型遗址以西周-春秋时期所占比例最高。2）自新石器时代至夏商时期，研究区南部聚落遗址主要分布在较高海拔的太行山山前丘陵盆地（100～500m）（〉46%），西周-春秋时期低海拔冲积平原（〈50m）地区成为遗址数量最多的地区，占总数的48%以上，这种变化响应于全新世大暖期以来研究区气候由温暖湿润逐步向寒冷干燥的发展；但研究区北部一直以0～50m低平原区为聚落遗址的主要分布区，主要受区域地貌及古白洋淀分布范围影响较大。3）以温暖湿润气候为主的新石器时代和夏商时期，聚落遗址分布重心出现在研究区南部地区，新石器时代出现在邯郸武安盆地（84～103个/10000km^2），夏商时期略向北移至邢台南部至邯郸北部地区（171～220个/10000km^2）；冷干气候背景下的西周-春秋时期，北方民族南下与研究区南部商人的南迁，以及北部燕国的建立，使得研究区北部海拔〈50m的拒马河中下游低平原成为聚落遗址分布重心（99～121个/10000km^2）。4）自新石器时代至春秋时期，研究区聚落遗址都集中分布在西部地区，沿太行山山麓呈南北条带状分布特征，东南部平原区受古湖泊及古河流下游改道与泛滥等因素影响始终鲜有聚落遗址分布。

英文摘要：

There is a close relationship between the history of human culture development and the characteristics of natural environment and its evolution. The study on the change of the distribution characteristics of the settlement sites in different regions will be helpful to deepen the understanding and cognition of the human-environment relationship. In this paper, the central and southern Hebei Province was selected as the study area, which is one of the original areas of Chinese millet agriculture, and an important area of ancient Chinese culture and ancient civilization. Hebei Plain and the Taihang Mountains are two most important geomorphic units in the study area. In this paper, we first establish a database of 1023 settlement sites from Neolithic to Chunqiu periods of which 202 settlement sites belong to the Neolithic settlement sites, 535 settlement sites belong to Xia-Shang period settlement sites, and 286 settlement sites belong to XiZhou-Chunqiu period. Based on the method of GIS spatial analysis, the site domain, altitude, density and accumulation characteristics of the settlement were systematically analyzed, and the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of the settlement sites in the study area are revealed. The results show that：（1）From Neolithic to Xia-Shang Period, the settlement sites numbers, the domain area and average densities of the settlement sites increase rapidly; and then decrease rapidly in the Xizhou-Chunqiu period, whereas the ratio of the continually-stacked settlement sites amounted to the highest in the Xizhou-Chunqiu period. （2）In the south of the study area, most settlement sites（more than 46%）were located in the piedmont hilly basin（100～500m）of the Taihang Mountain from Neolithic to Xia-Shang period, but the low altitude alluvial plain（less than 50m）become the major area accounted to 48% of the total at least in the Xizhou-Chunqiu period, that is in response to the climate change from warm and humid to cold and dry since Holocene Megathermal.
