Bogu and Gaolingpo
The sites of Bogu and Gaolingpo ( Chinese 百 谷 和 高岭 坡 遗址 , Pinyin Bǎigǔ hé Gāolǐngpō yízhǐ ) are Paleolithic sites in Bose (or "Baise") in the Bose Basin or "Baise Basin" ( 百色 盆地 , English Bose Basin / Baise Basin ) in the Autonomous region Guangxi the Zhuang in southern China.
The sites have been on the List of Monuments of the People's Republic of China (5-99) since 2001 .
Stone tools discovered there have been dated to an age of 803,000 years.
The discovery of Acheuléen- like hand axes demonstrates that such tools were used in East Asia over 500,000 years ago.
