Gao Temple Ruins

　　Located in Gao Temple Town, Xiangcheng City. The Gao Temple ruins are a mound-like highland, commonly known as "Gao Qiu" (High Mound), stretching 270 meters from east to west and 260 meters from north to south, covering an area of 70,000 square meters. According to the *Xiangcheng County Annals*, it is said that Zhuanxu, the grandson of the Yellow Emperor, chose to settle here, and the Youyang Clan established the State of Zhuanxu. Hence, it is also called Gao Yang Qiu (Mound of Gao Yang). During the Jin and Tang dynasties, a Buddhist temple was built on the site and named Gao Qiu Si (High Mound Temple), later shortened to Gao Si (High Temple). In 1963, it was designated as a key cultural relic protection unit of Henan Province. Artifacts collected here include stone axes, knives, chisels, jade shovels, bone awls, and more, belonging to the Longshan Culture, Shang-Zhou Culture, and Han-Jin Culture, making them of great significance for the study of early to mid-Longshan Culture.
