Sanxingdui Museum

　　The Sanxingdui Museum is situated on the southern bank of the Tamsui River estuary in Bali Township, Taipei County, with an area of about 62,500 square meters. In the 46th year of the Republic of China, geologist Lin Chaoqi discovered prehistoric iron-smelting remains here, along with numerous prehistoric pottery shards, stone pedestals, and concave stones. Based on these findings, he identified the site as a prehistoric settlement. The site was named "Sanxingdui" after the local place name. According to archaeological naming conventions, prehistoric sites are typically named after the smallest administrative or geographical unit where they are found. The location of this site, Dinggu Village in Bali Township, Taipei County, was also known by the alias "Sanxingdui Village," hence the name.
