In the Neolithic Age 5,300 years ago, Jiangzhuang in Xinghua, Jiangsu, holds the mysterious burial customs, hunting culture, and regional civilization conflicts of the Liangzhu people of Jiangzhuang. The land of Jiangzhuang has undergone great changes, and the ancestors cultivated this fertile land with primitive methods, thrived and multiplied, leaving behind one imprint after another. Guantiao Technology invites you to explore the ancient ruins of Jiangzhuang and start a dialogue with the ancestors.

The Jiangzhuang site is located at the junction of Xinghua and Dongtai cities in Jiangsu Province. The site is divided into eastern and western zones by the Taidong River. The western zone mainly contains Liangzhu culture deposits, covering an area of nearly 20,000 square meters. From 2011 to 2015, the Archaeological Research Institute of the Nanjing Museum led excavations, with a total excavated area of 3,500 square meters. The excavation work revealed a Liangzhu culture settlement in the western zone, uncovering 284 tombs, 8 house foundations, over 100 ash pits, and important remains such as wells and ash ditches, yielding nearly 1,200 artifacts including jade, stone, pottery, and bone objects.

The Jiangzhuang site is the first large-scale Liangzhu cultural settlement discovered north of the Yangtze River, and also the most complete and richest cemetery material of Liangzhu culture found so far, providing new data for further research on Liangzhu civilization and society. In 2022, the Jiangzhuang site adopted the Guanbiao Technology self-guided tour device to explain the dusty ancient history of the Jiangzhuang site to visitors one by one.

How was a jade disc nearly 25 centimeters in diameter, emitting a shimmering green glow, discovered? What were the stone adzes, knives, and arrowheads, polished to a smoothness like jade, used for by the ancient people? How were the large-mouthed pottery vessels (da kou zun) made?

When visitors use the self-guided audio tour device with a crown marker to explore the Jiangzhuang site, corresponding voice explanations are automatically triggered, allowing modern people to learn about the lives of ancient inhabitants on the edge of civilization in an engaging way.

In a hunting scene carved on a black pottery jar, a wild boar with tusks and bristles is tied with a rope and hung from a tree branch. Its four legs dangle, but its head and tail are raised, as if it is still struggling.
The diet of the ancestors was rich, including wild deer from hunting and pigs they raised themselves. At that time, rice was one of the staple foods, and gorgon fruit, water caltrops, and muskmelons were also consumed in large quantities. Apricots, peaches, and jujubes also appeared on the ancestors' menu.

The historical artifacts exhibited at the Jiangzhuang Site and the vivid audio guide provided by the self-guided tour device recreate the scenes of ancient humans' production and daily life at the site, allowing visitors to experience primitive methods such as hunting, fishing, and slash-and-burn cultivation.

Between 8,000 and 4,000 years ago, the Jiangzhuang site, as a thread, outlines the form of the emergence of civilization in Jiangsu. Like early cultural sites in other regions of China, it is like a trickle of the origin of Chinese civilization, eventually converging into the mighty river of Chinese civilization. Guanbiao Technology is honored to be the narrator of the Jiangzhuang site, hoping that more people will listen to history and understand the long-standing Chinese civilization.
