  • Yezhudong Cave Neolithic Site in Zhaotong City

    Chinese Name: 昭通市野猪洞新石器
    English Name: Yezhudong Cave Neolithic Site in Zhaotong City

    Overview of the Yezhudong Cave Neolithic Site

    The Yezhudong Cave Neolithic Site is situated approximately 300 meters north of the Xunlongwan Village Office in Sayu Township, Zhaotong City, Yunnan Province, China. The cave measures between 3 to 4 meters in width, with varying heights ranging from 1.5 to 3 meters, and extends more than 10 meters in depth. The cave also features side chambers that are about 4 to 5 meters deep. Archaeological excavations at Yezhudong Cave have uncovered various artifacts, including stone adzes, stone axes, net weights, and pottery such as red sandy pottery and gray clay pottery. Additionally, human jawbones and animal remains, including those of wild cattle and dogs, have been found.

    When comparing these findings with artifacts from the Guoshandong Cave Neolithic site, the tools from Yezhudong Cave appear to be more roughly made, suggesting that the cultural timeline of Yezhudong Cave may predate that of the Guoshandong Cave site.Yezhudong Cave Neolithic Site in Zhaotong City
