Dushizai Cave Site

　　The Dushizai Cave Site is located 30 kilometers northeast of Yangchun County along the highway, situated on the Dushizai rocky hill southwest of Liucungang in Pumian Town. The cave is 15 meters high, 2–8 meters wide, 20 meters deep, and covers an area of 200 square meters. In 1960, staff from the Guangdong Provincial Museum discovered this site during an archaeological survey along both banks of the West River and designated it as Cave No. 5.

　　Among the unearthed relics were one late Paleolithic “Homo sapiens” tooth, over 400 artifacts, and more than 1,000 animal fossils. A total of 243 stone tools were excavated, divided into two types: chipped and ground. There were 227 chipped stone tools, including 42 chopping tools, 45 scrapers, 14 stone hammers, 1 stone anvil, 29 stone flakes, 50 stone cores, and 46 semi-finished pieces. There were also 16 ground stone tools, comprising 7 cutting tools, 9 perforated stone tools, and 6 bone tools, which included 1 bone arrowhead, 3 bone awls, and 2 semi-finished items.
