industry, cottage industry, 「巨大別墅」enormous “cottages”. Seeking Fame in Apple's Sea of Apps, The Oldowan industry

作為一名學者，他最初以《木瓦風格：從理查森到賴特的起源的建築理論與設計》一書嶄露頭角。該書（以另一個標題）於 1949 年作為他的博士論文提交，並於 1955 年出版成書。他的分析發現，麥金、米德和懷特等人在 19 世紀 70 年代和 80 年代為上層階級客戶建造的巨大「別墅enormous “cottages” 」（這些別墅造型強勁有力，體量龐大，外覆雪松木瓦）與弗蘭克·勞埃德·賴特在中西部早期的民居建築之間存在著連續性。

 The Oldowan, often spelled Olduwan or Oldawan, is the archaeological term used to refer to the earliest stone tool industry in prehistory, being used during the Lower Paleolithic period, 2.6 million years ago up until 1.7 million years ago, by Hominines. It was followed by the more sophisticated Acheulean industry.

問題: The Oldowan industry 翻譯成Oldowan"文化"可乎?
