Located in Qijiazi Village, Shahezi Township, Chuanying District, Jilin City, the site covers an area of approximately 20,000 square meters. Since 1960, multiple surveys have been conducted, yielding over two hundred artifacts including flaked stone tools, ground stone tools, decorated pottery fragments, and intact plain pottery. The remains belong to two distinct cultures: the earlier one, dating back five to six thousand years, belongs to the Neolithic culture, while the later one, about two to three thousand years old, is part of the Xituanshan Culture. This site provides substantial material evidence for the study of the Neolithic culture in the Jilin region.
