  Sanxingdui and Jinsha Unveiled Ancient Shu Mystery

  For a long time, Ancient Shu only existed in the incoherent legends and tales. The discovery and excavation of the Sanxingdui, Jinsha and other sites gradually clarified the development of Ancient Shu. Archaeological data show that Sanxingdui site and Jinsha site together outline the Ancient Shu civilization from its origin, development to its demise, which is an important part of the Chinese civilization.

  Close Cooperation: Inject Vitality into the Process of World Cultural Heritage Bidding

  After the excavation of Jinsha Site in 2001, the lineage of Ancient Shu civilization has become clearer, and the bidding for the World Cultural Heritage has also been put on the agenda. In recent years, Jinsha Site Museum and Sanxingdui Museum have gone to the United States, Japan, Italy, Spain, Mexico, Britain and other places to present Sichuan to the world through joint research on the subject of gold and jade artifacts, International Academic Symposium on Jade Culture in the Xia and Shang Dynasties and other forms.
