Jiahu Site proves ancient Chinese highly evolved civilization

In Beiwudu township of north Wuyang county, Central China's Henan province, lies a hidden Neolithic site, the Jiahu site.

Through eight archaeological excavations, this site has unveiled a wealth of Neolithic relics, including houses, kilns, ash pits, tombs, pot graves, and animal pits. More than 6,000 artifacts crafted from materials such as pottery, stone, bone, horn, teeth, and shell have been unearthed, alongside a trove of plant and animal remains.

These findings vividly illustrate that the ancestors of Jiahu had entered into a highly developed civilization characterized by plow agriculture, gathering, and hunting, fostering an early Neolithic culture, including rice cultivation, music, religion, and brewing.
