Yinzishan Ancient Cultural Site

The Yinzishan Ancient Cultural Site is a protected cultural heritage site of Jiangsu Province.

The Yinzishan Ancient Cultural Site is located at the intersection of Damingshi Road and Yinzishan Road. It covers an area of 80×90 square meters, stands 8–12 meters high, and is a flat-topped large earthen mound. Dating back nearly three to four thousand years, it is a cultural site from the Bronze Age and belongs to the Hushu culture type.

Trial excavations were carried out in 1952, uncovering a cultural layer 3.2–3.3 meters thick. The unearthed pottery mainly consisted of sand-tempered red pottery, with fewer orange-yellow fine-pottery items. There were also thin-walled wheel-made black-glazed pottery pieces, as well as stone arrowheads, stone knives, and animal bones. At a depth of 2–3 meters, copper arrowheads were also discovered. In 1982, it was listed as a cultural heritage site protected by Nanjing Municipality. Originally part of Dongfeng Village, Honghua Township, Yuhuatai District, the Yinzishan Ancient Cultural Site was reassigned to Qinhuai District following an administrative division adjustment. The site is bordered by a road on one side and vegetable fields on the other. It can be reached by bus routes Nanjing–Jinlin and No. 84.
