Pottery was discovered at both sites-black at one, colored at the other - immediately bringing ancient Chinese people out of the "grass eating and blood drinking" hunter-gatherer period into "the beginning of civilization" with agriculture.
這兩個新石器時代的遺址，一發現黑陶，一出現彩陶，將中國遠古人類，一下從「茹毛飲血」的採集、漁獵時代，拉到有農業的「文明起源的開端」。
