Chinese scholars and experts in the field of archaeology are calling for more interdisciplinary collaborative efforts to strengthen research into the origins of Chinese civilization as they gathered over the weekend in Southwest China s Sichuan Province to celebrate China s National Cultural and Natural Heritage Day which fell on Saturday.
Chinese research on ancient civilization has made remarkable progress in the past year, since President Xi Jinping called for further efforts to advance the study of Chinese civilization.
More than 9,000 years ago, a group of people lived in a prehistoric settlement located what is today a village in Wu-yang county, Central China s Henan Province. These people were not only hunters, fishermen and artisans, but also excellent musicians who created a splendid Neolithic culture. They constructed houses, cultivated rice, domesticated livestock, made pottery wares and bone flutes, building a homeland of idyllic beauty full of the fragrance of rice and the melodious sound of music.
The museum offers a panorama of Chinese culture and history through its comprehensive collection of texts. Such a large number of visitors to the museum was unprecedented.
