Basic Introduction to Chifeng Xiaomi

The primitive human cultural types named by the national archaeological community in Chifeng include Xinglongwa Culture, Zhaobaogou Culture, Hongshan Culture, Fuhe Culture, Xiaoheyan Culture, and Xiajiadian Lower Culture. The stone tools, bone tools, pottery, bronze ware and other production and living objects unearthed from archaeological excavations prove that the primitive ancestors in the territory had already lived a primitive settlement life of agriculture, fishing, hunting and animal husbandry more than 8000 years ago. Chifeng City has a long history of planting foxtail millet. In 2003, carbonized particle specimens of chestnut and millet dating back 8000 years were unearthed at the Xinglonggou site. After identification and verification by research institutions in Canada, the United Kingdom, and China using C14 and other methods, it is believed to be the earliest form of artificially cultivated grain. Therefore, it can be inferred that the Aohan area of Chifeng is the origin of ancient dryland agriculture in China and the origin of dryland agriculture across the Eurasian continent.
