Important scenic spots

① The skull fossil of Yunyang man is a great discovery. It was excavated by archaeologists in May 1989 in MituoSi village, Qingqu Town, Yunyang district. According to the identification of many famous archaeologists and paleoanthropologists in China, this is the "Australopithecus" 2.4 million years ago. It is the first discovery in China and even the whole Asia, which is called "national treasure". Its discovery shakes the theory that human beings originated from one source. Now, the "Yunyang man" ape skull fossil is stored in the "Yunyang Museum", which is open to visitors. (2) xuetangliangzi site is located in MituoSi village, Qingqu Town, Yunyang District, Hubei Province, on the fourth terrace on the left bank of the Han River. It is a Paleolithic site. There are two early human skulls, more than 300 pieces of stone products, mainly large stone cores, flakes, pointed utensils and scrapers made from local gravels, and more than 20 species of mammal fossils of the early Pleistocene, such as giant panda and Oriental Stegodon. The geological age of the site is the late Early Pleistocene, and the absolute age may be earlier than 800000 years ago. The human skull fossils in this site not only have the primitive characteristics of Homo erectus, but also have some similarities with early Homo sapiens, reflecting the complexity of ancient human evolution. The discovery of abundant stone products and animal fossils at xuetangliangzi site provides very important materials for the study of early human culture and quaternary paleogeographic environment in China and East Asia.
