以更新世全球性气候变化规律为基准,结合深海氧同位素阶段的划分,以及中国冰期与其对比关系等方面的研究进展,对以往学者所提出的一些更新世事件与氧同位素时段的对比关系进行了检验。结果佐证了南京直立人生活于昆仑主冰期,年代约为距今642ka-620ka,可能与MIS16相当的观点。研究同时表明:北京直立人可能生存于前大间冰期(MIS15—13)的初期,推测最早的北京直立人的年代为距今约620ka。
Taking the regulation of the Pleistocene global climate change as the basis, combined with progress on the demarcation of the marine oxygen isotope stage (MIS), and the comparison between the glacier epoch in China and MIS, etc. , this paper carries on an examination to the correlation between some Pleistocene events in China and MIS put forward by some scholars. The result demonstrates that Homo erectus in Nanjing most probably lived in the main glacier epoch of Kunlun, about 642ka-620ka before present, most comparable with MIS16. It is also evident that Homo erectus pekinensis was living in the initial stage of the great interglacial epoch (MIS15-13), and the earliest Homo erectus pekinensis might occur about 620 ka ago.
