Located between Lujia Ying Village in Wuli Town and Siling Primary School in the county, the site was discovered in 1985 when the regional cultural relics management committee investigated cultural relics in the Yuhe Gold Mine mining area. It lies east of Fuja River, south of the airport, north of the Hanbai Highway, and west of Ranja River, spanning approximately one Chinese mile from north to south and about two Chinese miles from east to west. During farming activities, villagers from Lujia Ying Village have successively unearthed many bricks and tiles with rope patterns, with some even using patterned bricks from the Northern and Southern Dynasties to build toilets. The decorative patterns are quite varied, and some of the bricks are inscribed with dates. Pottery artifacts have also been excavated and handed over to the First Cultural Center of Ankang County for preservation. This site is a village settlement dating from the Han Dynasty to the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
