Shanghai Songze Ruins Museum and Its Surrounding Environment
Songze, an ordinary village in the western hinterland of Shanghai, is known as the "source of Shanghai"-the earliest ancient cultural sites in Shanghai were discovered here, and the earliest life footprints of Shanghai ancestors began here; Songze culture got its name from this, and the ancient history of China was enriched. The historical imprint buried under this land makes people realize that the "small fishing village" on the coast of the East China Sea has actually gone through the cultural rise and fall of 6 thousand years; The historical truth condensed in this ancient site surprised us: the modern oriental metropolis was once the center of ancient developed civilization in China.
Shanghai Songze Ruins Museum
Since its discovery, after more than half a century of excavation, protection and research, Songze has become not only a practical model for the protection and utilization of large sites, but also a spiritual home for inheriting Shanghai's ancient and modern history and a cultural coordinate for exploring the origin of Chinese civilization. Songze Ruins Museum consists of three parts: discovering Songze Ruins, entering Songze Ruins and inheriting Songze Ruins. It shows us the historical process of the development of early human culture in Shanghai and brings us an extraordinary journey through.
Shanghai Songze Ruins Museum
With the excavation and research of archaeological remains represented by Songze site, we have formed a more systematic understanding of the geographical space, chronological coordinates and typical cultural characteristics of Songze culture and its related prehistoric culture. This part mainly shows the great progress of Songze culture in social productivity and its role and important position in the origin of Chinese civilization.
Songze site is the birthplace of Shanghai ancient culture. Found in 1957, located in Songze Village, Zhaoxiang Town, Qingpu District. "Songze" means "a highland of wetlands in Wusong River Basin". About 7000 years ago, the land in Shanghai rose. About 6000 years ago, people belonging to Majiabang culture came to Shanghai, and Songze was their original home. Zhang Lan, director of the Shanghai Museum of History, said that Songze culture was the first culture named after a place name in Shanghai and the earliest culture of Shanghai aborigines.
There are many "Shanghai first" in the museum. In the spring of 2004, when archaeologists excavated the Songze site for the fifth time, they found the "first person in Shanghai" in the tombs of Majiabang culture period. This is a man aged between 25 and 30. According to archaeologists, this age was already an "old man" at that time.
The museum also exhibits the remains of carbonized rice, which is the earliest cultivated rice unearthed in Shanghai and is called "the first rice in Shanghai". This is the first discovery of rice remains in China, which provides direct evidence for the origin of rice cultivation in China.
Different from other museums, Songze Site Museum was built on the site excavated that year.
