The Ancient City of Anyang

　　　　        i.e., the seat of Xinyang County during the Western Han Dynasty (in the second year of the Hongjia era under Emperor Cheng, the Marquis Qing Yong was enfeoffed in Xinyang). It is situated to the north of Nanyang Village, Zouwu Town. The ancient city is located on a platform-like highland, with the foundations of all four walls still clearly visible, especially on the east, west, and south sides. Some sections even rise 4–5 meters above the ground surface, all built from rammed yellow earth. The city wall has a circumference of about 1,000 meters, covering a total area of approximately 6,000 square meters. Within the ancient city, numerous pottery fragments are scattered across the ground, including gray pottery and red pottery, though gray pottery predominates. In 1993, it was designated as a municipal-level key cultural relics protection unit by the Zaozhuang Municipal People's Government, and in 2006, it was listed as a third batch provincial-level cultural relics protection unit by the Shandong Provincial People's Government.
