Gao Dazhuang Warring States, Qin, and Han Dynasty Ruins
The Gao Dazhuang Warring States, Qin, and Han Dynasty Ruins are located in Yuanlou Administrative Village, Gaosi Town, Xiangcheng City, Henan Province. To the north lies the Fen River, to the west is Yuying Administrative Village, and the natural villages of Lizhuang, Yangzhuang, and Gao Dazhuang are situated on the ruins site. Covering an area of approximately 1 million square meters, the site has yielded a large number of artifacts from the Spring and Autumn Period, Warring States Period, Qin Dynasty, and Han Dynasty. Twenty-two Western Han Dynasty bronze washbasins were excavated behind Yangzhuang Village, and a significant number of ant-nose coins have been found in Lizhuang, Yangzhuang, Gao Dazhuang, and Yuanlou Villages. According to historical records in the "Yuanhe Junxian Zhi" (a Tang dynasty geographical text), it is speculated that this site was once the location of the Han Dynasty county seat of Hecheng.
