Chuping Archaeological Site, Archaeological site in Ren'ai Township, Taiwan.

The archaeological location spans across mountainous terrain at 750 meters elevation, containing numerous prehistoric artifacts and settlement remnants.

Researchers discovered the site in 1980 during explorations in the Zhuoshui River valley, leading to three major excavation projects between 1981 and 1987.

The excavated tools and artifacts from this location provide substantial evidence about the lifestyle of early mountain communities in prehistoric Taiwan.

The Ministry of Culture designated this location as Taiwan's tenth national archaeological site in May 2019, implementing protective measures for future research.

The site's elevation and geographical position in the mountains offer researchers specific insights into how ancient communities adapted to high-altitude environments.
