Liujia Dun Site

The Liujia Dun Site is a protected cultural heritage site of Zhejiang Province.

The Liujia Dun Site is located in Xinghuo Village, Fengqiao Town, Nanhu District, Jiaxing City. To the east of the site lies a rural dirt road, to the west a concrete road, and to the south is the Xinghuo Village Committee of Fengqiao Town. The site is rectangular in shape, covering an area of approximately 40,000 square meters. The earthen mound rises about 3 meters above the surrounding paddy fields and is planted with mulberry trees, leafy greens, and other crops, as well as several villagers' graves.

Artifacts collected on-site include one broken perforated stone axe from the Liangzhu period, two fragments of gray pottery, one fragment of sandy red pottery body, one conical foot fragment, three fragments of stamped hard pottery, and one tripod leg. The Liujia Dun Site dates from the Liangzhu culture of the Neolithic Age to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. With a long duration of use, large distribution area, prominent high mound, and relatively well-preserved condition, the site holds significant historical and scientific value.

In January 2011, it was designated as part of the sixth batch of Zhejiang Provincial Cultural Heritage Protection Units.
