Yueshi culture
The Yueshi culture ( Chinese 岳石文 化 , Pinyin Yuèshí wénhuà , English Yueshi Culture ) is a Bronze Age culture that followed the Shandong Longshan culture (see Longshan culture ). It was discovered in 1960 in the village of Dongyueshi in Pingdu County in the Chinese province of Shandong and initially thought to be a site of the Shandong Longshan culture. However, research in the 1970s revealed that it is an archaeological culture in its own right. Their distribution area corresponds essentially to that of the Shandong Longshan culture. Excavations of the Yinjiacheng site in Sishui (泗水 尹家 城) and the Dakou site on Tuoji Island, Changdao (长岛 砣 矶 大 口), both Shandong Province, show that it dates back to the Shandong Longshan culture, is its most recent phase that of the culture of the Shanghai Upper Erligang phase. The Yueshi culture is based on the radiocarbon method from 1900 to 1600 BC. Dated.
The Dongyueshi site ( Dongyueshi yizhi ) has been on the list of monuments of the People's Republic of China (6-109) since 2006 .
