On January 2nd, the reporter learned from the Ningbo Cultural Heritage Management Research Institute in Zhejiang Province that two ancient sites were discovered in Dongqiao Town, Haishu District, Ningbo, named Shuqiao Site and Panjiada Site. The Shuqiao Site provides important physical materials for restoring the living scenes of settlements in the Ningshao area during the Six Dynasties period, while the Panjiada Site provides good physical materials for understanding the cultural evolution from the late Liangzhu Culture to the Qianshanyang Culture period in Ningbo. It is reported that from March to May 2023, with the approval of the National Cutural Heritage Administration, Ningbo Institute of Cultural Heritage Management, together with the Archaeological Research Center of the National Cutural Heritage Administration, Sichuan University, Beijing Union University and the Cultural Relics Management Institute of Haishu District, carried out rescue archaeological excavations at Shuqiao Site and Panjiada Site in the south.

The reporter learned from the Ningbo Cultural Heritage Management Research Institute that the Shuqiao Site is located west of Shuqiao Village in Dongqiao Town, Haishu District, Ningbo City, with a low-lying and flat terrain. The site is divided into three areas for excavation: I, II, and III. Zone I is mainly composed of relics from the Song Dynasty, Zone II is mainly composed of relics from the Tang Dynasty, with a small amount of relics from the Liangzhu Culture period, and Zone III is mainly composed of relics from the Six Dynasties period. Eleven remains including ash pits, ash activity surfaces, and wooden structures were excavated and cleared, and over 400 small specimens were unearthed. Porcelain was unearthed from Zone III of the Shuqiao Site. The relic of Liangzhu Culture provided by Ningbo Cultural Heritage Management Research Institute is an irregularly shaped ash activity surface located on a high platform, mixed with a lot of charcoal particles. It has unearthed relics such as ground stones, black pottery pieces, red pottery pieces, and sand red pottery tripods, which are speculated to be signs of the daily lives of the ancestors. During the Six Dynasties period, there were three ash pits and one wooden building, and artifacts such as porcelain, pottery, bricks and tiles, stone, wood, and metal were unearthed. In Tang Dynasty relics, the characteristics of the era of unearthed celadon ware are obvious, with many celadon bowls with jade walls and shallow circles on the soles of the feet. Among the remains of the Song Dynasty, typical Song Dynasty porcelain such as carved flower bowls, celadon bowls, and Han vases have been unearthed. Wooden clogs were unearthed from Zone III of the Shuqiao Site. Wang Guangyuan, Vice President of Ningbo Cultural Heritage Management Research Institute, stated that the Shuqiao Site is the most abundant in relics from the Six Dynasties period, especially the wooden architectural relics unearthed from the site built along the water, which is speculated to be a waterfront revetment structure. At the same time, a large number of artifacts with high repetition rates were unearthed from the site, showing obvious commercial trade attributes. It is inferred that the wooden structure should be a waterfront dock or storage warehouse, and such relics have been found less frequently in archaeological studies during the Six Dynasties period. The Panjiada site unearthed pottery jars from the Liangzhu culture. The Panjiada Site of Ningbo Cultural Heritage Management Research Institute is located in the east of Panjiada Village, Dongqiao Town, and is divided into two areas: south and north. The cultural accumulation depth of the site is about 1.4 to 1.6 meters, and it can be divided into 6 layers from top to bottom. A total of 22 relics were discovered at the site, and 45 small specimens were unearthed. The unearthed relics can be traced back to the Liangzhu Culture, Qianshanyang Culture, and Song and Yuan Dynasties, with prehistoric remains being the main focus.
