家畜文化を有したアフロ・ユーラシア内陸乾燥地文明が人類文明発展の中心にあった。家畜は蛋白資源生産(肉、乳、毛、皮)に止まらない。化石エネルギー使用以前人類が利用しうる最大の自然パワーであった。移動・運搬手段として長距離交易と都市文明を可能にし、政治軍事手段としては巨大帝国形成を可能にした。これにより、旧大陸内陸部にグローバルな乾燥地文明が形成された。しかしこの文明は内的に多様であり、4類型にわけられ。①ウマ卓越北方冷涼草原、②ラクダ卓越熱帯砂漠、③小型家畜中心山地オアシス、④ウシ中心熱帯サヴァンナ、である。しかし海洋中心の西洋近代文明、化石燃料時代の到来とともに、乾燥地文明は衰退する。

The Kizil Grottoes, the largest Buddhist monastery complex in the Xinjian region of China, is decorated with wall paintings - the chronological dates of which are still under debate. This study aims to give some clarification regarding the chronological dates using AMS-14C dating of chaff tempers taken from the earthen renders of the wall paintings. l4C studies previously carried out by Chinese and German researchers had resulted in divergent dates often extending back hundreds of years earlier than hypothesized within the chronology of art history, which has created confusion. Six samples from six wall painting fragments (Caves 8 [III8425], 38 [III8700], 171 [III8793, III8891], 207[III9148b(d)], and 224[III8865(a)]) held in collections at the Museum für Asiatische Kunst in Berlin were taken and analysed with 14C-AMS at the Center of Chronological Research at Nagoya University in Japan. As reference, nine dating results analysed between 1995 and 1998 at Nagoya University were also shown in the list. Dates were obtained for only three out of the six samples: cal AD 128-216 [Cave 8], cal AD 255-306 and cal AD 312-34 [Cave 171], and 90-70 cal BC [Cave 224]; most of these extended back earlier than reference 14C data from the Chinese and German studies and far earlier than dates suggested by the timeline of art history. Even the Chinese and German reference dates derived in the past from 14C analysis often show varied dates occurring earlier than those represented in art history. This may indicate that old chaff was used in renders for the Kizil wall paintings probably as a form of re-use of old mud bricks, or that the chronology of art history must be drastically reconsidered, both of which would require further AMS-14C dating studies with careful and comprehensive sampling from well-documented contexts.名古屋大学年代測定総合研究センターシンポジウム報告
