This mysterious primeval heritage site lies in Guanghan City, Sichuan Province, China, on the south bank of the Yazi River, northern Chengdu Plain.

 

Dating back approximately 4,800 to 2,600 years, the site covers around 12 square kilometers. It is one of the best-preserved, longest-lasting, and most culturally abundant relics of the Lost Ancient Eastern Civilization in the upper Yangtze River region.

 

Official Key Archaeological Timeline

 

In 1929, local villagers accidentally unearthed a fine collection of ancient jade ritual objects, bringing this millennium-buried ancient civilization into modern archaeological sight for the first time.

 

In 1934, the first official professional archaeological exploration and excavation was launched.

 

In 1986, two large ancient sacrificial pits were uncovered, yielding a great number of national treasure-level relics with extraordinary shapes and supreme craftsmanship. The discovery shocked the world and is recognized as one of the most important archaeological findings of the 20th century.

 

From 2019 to 2022, a new round of systematic archaeology achieved remarkable breakthroughs. Multiple new sacrificial pits were excavated, with more than 14,000 precious relics discovered — including gold ornament fragments, bronze statues, ivory carvings, and ancient silk remains. These findings fully prove that this Lost Ancient Eastern Civilization possessed highly sophisticated craftsmanship and a unique spiritual ritual system.
