周口店
周口店 enters the wiki through 19.荒野上的大师:“我辈于乱世求研究,本为逆流之妄举” as the site of the Peking Man discoveries. The episode narrates how earlier animal fossils, disputed teeth, international funding, and Chinese field persistence converged before [[PeiWenzhong|裴文中]] found the first skull.
The source makes 周口店 a test case for Fieldwork As Knowledge Method / 田野作为知识方法 and Scholarship In Wartime / 乱世求研究. Discovery depends on repeated excavation and local presence, while later loss of the skulls during wartime shows how fragile physical evidence can be even after scientific achievement.
Key Claims
- 周口店 links geology, paleontology, medicine, and archaeology in the episode.
- The site shows how field research can remain uncertain until the decisive find appears.
- The lost skulls make preservation and war risk part of the knowledge story.
