Jiaoshantou Site is a relatively typical and richly informative site in the Yitong River basin. The pottery is coarse in texture and fired at low temperatures, similar to those found at nearby sites. What makes this site distinctive is the appearance of tripod feet, introducing new forms of pottery assemblages, which is of significant importance for studying the ancient pottery shapes and manufacturing techniques of Liuhe County. The site stretches 800 meters from east to west and 150 meters from north to south.
