貝匙 Shell Spoon

3D ModelNoAI

澎湖鎖港遺址出土外觀形制如匙之貝器，年代距今約4700至4300年前，屬新石器時代中期的細繩紋陶文化。 呈長條形，保存狀況良好且器物形制相當輕薄、精緻。器表可見明顯磨銼痕，頂窄底寬，邊緣處經良好的修磨，近似於當今的湯匙。特殊之處在於頂部有一穿孔，可穿線作為裝飾品繫綁攜帶使用，反映澎湖史前人群靈活運用海洋環境資源的生活文化，深具時代特色。

This artifact is a worked shell piece that has a curved shape like a spoon. With an elongated outline, a narrow top and a wide bottom, it is thin and delicate but nevertheless well preserved. Over the body there are apparent grinding marks, while along the edges the artifact is well-polished. On top of the piece is a drilled hole, possibly allowing for a cord to be threaded through and thus the artifact to be worn as a pendant. It showcases how prehistoric people in the Penghu Islands used marine resources with creativity and reflects the characteristics of its time.
