Zengpiyan, Neolithic archaeological cave site in Guilin, China

The site contains three connected caves spanning 300 square meters at the southwestern foot of Dushan Mountain in Guangxi Zhuang region.

The location features early crouching burial sites with bent limbs, representing funeral practices common across southern China and Southeast Asia.
