Chinese archaeologists announced Thursday significant achievements at the Shuanghuaishu site in central China's Henan Province, providing key proof of the origin of the over 5,000-year-long Chinese civilization. With an area of 1.17 million square meters, the Shuanghuaishu site is located on the south bank of the Yellow River in the township of Heluo, Gongyi City. Archaeologists proposed to name the ancient city relic, dating back to around 5,300 years, as "Heluo Kingdom" after its location in the center of the Heluo area. It is where the Yellow River, known as He in ancient China, and the Luohe River meet. A large number of relics of the Yangshao Culture dating back 5,000 to 7,000 years have been discovered at the site.
