Shangshan, Archaeological site in Pujiang County, China.
The Shangshan archaeological site contains stone tools, pottery fragments, and plant remains spread across 19 distinct excavation locations within Zhejiang Province.
Archaeological investigations since 2000 have revealed evidence of human settlement and rice cultivation dating back approximately 11,400 to 8,600 years ago.
Researchers at Shangshan have documented a complete sequence of ancient rice farming practices, including methods of harvesting, processing, and food preparation.
The site maintains preservation facilities for archaeological specimens and provides educational exhibits about early agricultural development in East Asia.
Scientific analysis of rice remains from Shangshan has established this location as the earliest known center of rice cultivation in the world.
