Guideline urges innovation, better training to advance archaeological research, protectionFor nearly four decades, scholars from the University of Science and Technology of China in Hefei, Anhui province, have carried out interdisciplinary research at the Jiahu site — a Neolithic settlement that dates back 7,500 to 9,000 years — to unearth its multifaceted significance to the country's development.
The fact that the Jiahu site studies have received so much international recognition is due to the participation of different scientific disciplines and technology-based archaeological methods, said Zhao Zhijun, a researcher at the Institute of Archaeology at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
Progress in the use of technology in archaeological research was highlighted at a national conference on cultural relics and technology in November.
Carbon-14 dating, which can determine the organic age of material as old as 60,000 years, has opened up a new chapter in archaeometry — scientific methods and technology used in archaeological study — in China, Li said.
Wang Zhen, an official at the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said more than 90 types of such equipment have been produced, including intelligent showcases for museum collections, archaeological excavation cabins, and mobile laboratories for archaeological sites.
"The archaeological excavation cabins used at the Sanxingdui site in Guanghan, Sichuan province, have solved the problem of newly unearthed artifacts often being damaged when their surrounding environment changes," Wang said.
For example, the draft encourages the establishment of museums, memorials and archaeological site parks to strengthen protection of immovable cultural relics, display their value and educate the public, he said.

"Therefore, sharing the progress of archaeological studies, including the sites and unearthed artifacts with the public in this way, is meaningful.
19 archaeological sites gain national-level park designationWith its long history and prosperous culture, China has a rich cultural heritage, including historical villages, time-honored brands and, critically, ancient sites.
While many may not appear to be special on the surface, they can yield finds that are culturally significant as a result of archaeological excavation.
But now, the idea of preserving the excavations and transforming archaeological ruins into parks is flourishing.
"Archaeological parks can help enrich cultural knowledge by displaying both the sites and their artifacts," He said.
"In December, the National Cultural Heritage Administration announced its fourth list of national-level archaeological parks.
"The 19 parks are all doing well in terms of management and operation, archaeological studies and protection efforts, and their displays of cultural artifacts and explanations," the list said.
"In particular, the Erlitou Archaeological Site Park in Yanshi district, Luoyang city, Henan province, has attracted a lot of attention since the National Cultural Heritage Administration announced new findings at the site in September.
Recent archaeological research has identified the city's central east-west axis, revealed the location and scale of the residence of Liao emperors, and unearthed more than 20,000 precious cultural artifacts such as Buddhist statues and fragments of tablets inscribed in Khitan, according to Dong Xinlin, head of the Liao Shangjing archaeological team.
The Liao Shangjing Park now includes a museum, a tourist service center, an exhibition of the emperors' residence, a Liao cultural display area and an archaeological discovery activity area that combines research, education and leisure.
Our archaeological work has laid a good foundation, and the site has been properly preserved," Dong said.
"The creation of archaeological parks has drawn hordes of tourists.
The then 36 national-level archaeological ruins parks received about 40 million people per year on average during the period of the 13th Five-Year Plan (2016-20).
"In this way, local governments, archaeological researchers and local people all benefit.
"Last December, a further 32 archaeological parks were added to the project-approval list, which means they meet the basic conditions to become national-level parks but need further improvements before they can be added to the official list.
Xi then noted that more effort should be put into archaeological research to carry forward the project of tracing the origins of the Chinese civilization up to the current day.
The finding was the result of an archaeological excavation that started in 2017, a protective measure of last resort that was prompted by frequent tomb raids at the site.
