《语言、基因和考古》内容简介

　　中国西北甘青地区位于丝绸之路的核心地带，是研究人群遗传混合和语言接触的绝佳场所。本书基于欧洲研究委员会（ERC-2019-ADG 883700-TRAM）Tracing languages and population mixing in the Gansu-Qinghai area项目的初期研究成果，分两部分共17篇文章进行介绍，既有前沿理论和方法，也有具体实践案例，立足跨学科探索，既可作为语言学、分子人类学、考古学等学科的专业教材，也适合其他领域相关人士的阅读和参考。本书作者都是语言、基因、考古研究第一线的学者，通过跨学科研究特定地区的人群和语言，有机地把不同学科结合在一起，有开创意义。

　　本书稿基于语言学、遗传学和考古学等跨学科联合研究，对处于丝绸之路核心地带的中国西北甘青地区的农业起源、人类活动和迁徙、语言的演化等进行了综合研究和探索。为比较研究人群文化和基因动态变化的过程提供了新方法和新思路。

Language, Genes, and Archaeology

Located at the heart of the Silk Road, the Ganqing region of Northwest China is an excellent place to study the genetic mixing and language contact of populations. This book is based on the initial findings of the European Research Council (ERC-2019-ADG 883700-TRAM) project Tracing languages and population mixing in the Gansu Qinghai area, A total of 17 articles are introduced in two parts, including cutting-edge theories and methods, as well as specific practical cases. Based on interdisciplinary exploration, they can be used as professional textbooks for linguistics, molecular anthropology, archaeology and other disciplines, and are also suitable for reading and reference by people related to other fields. The authors of this book are all scholars at the forefront of language, genetics, and archaeology research. Through interdisciplinary research on the populations and languages of specific regions, this book organically combines different disciplines, which is of pioneering significance.

Based on the interdisciplinary research of linguistics, genetics and archaeology, this manuscript comprehensively studies and explores the origins of agriculture, human activities and migration, and language evolution in the Ganqing region of Northwest China, which lies at the heart of the Silk Road. It provides a new method and a new idea for the comparative study of the process of population culture and gene dynamic change.
