In recent years, a number of archaeological themed documentaries have emerged, such as "Why China", "See Sanxingdui Again", and "Liangzhu", documenting the landscapes in archaeological excavations from different perspectives and enriching the profound connotation of "Why China" with images. A documentary film exploring the origin of civilization and archaeological themes takes cultural relics as the starting point, exploring the hidden historical memories behind cultural relics. The currently popular "Why China" spans time and space with a grand perspective, comprehensively and deeply telling the human history of millions of years, cultural history of ten thousand years, and civilization history of more than five thousand years on the land of China, clarifying the basic context of the diversified and integrated development of Chinese civilization. "Liangzhu" leads the audience to immerse themselves in exploring the past and the present, providing evidence and preservation for the inheritance of Liangzhu culture. In the view of Professor Chen Liqiang from the School of Journalism and Communication at Tianjin Normal University, "from the perspective of empirically demonstrating the five thousand years of Chinese civilization, these documentaries have very important cultural and anthropological value." Archaeological research needs to "see through things and people," and documentaries depict more specific and warm social conditions of the era in which our ancestors lived through film and television narration. In these documentaries, the narrative of literature and archaeological evidence complement each other, allowing the audience to understand the macro rhythm of civilization development. "More and more audiences will understand archaeology and Chinese civilization through documentaries, and gain inexhaustible motivation to forge ahead." The director of "Why China", Gan Chao, stated that over the past century, generations of archaeologists have witnessed greatness in every detail. They have rooted themselves in the fields, bravely advanced, and gradually pieced together an ancient world from the fields. Documentary films on archaeology, with the help of real-life stories, showcase the fighting spirit of archaeologists in exploring history and cultural heritage. On the field, amidst exploration, archaeological excavations are rigorous and lengthy. Archaeological documentaries not only tell the audience about the historical landscape, but also present the exciting stories behind the archaeologists, adding a bright color to this type of documentary.

"See Sanxingdui Again" focuses its perspective on the highlights, mysteries, and difficulties in the excavation process, showcasing the humanistic spirit of generations of Chinese archaeologists who have been searching up and down, seeking roots and truth. Associate Professor Liang Junjian from the School of Journalism at Tsinghua University said, "More and more documentaries are focusing on archaeologists behind excavations, exploring the contemporary value and significance of archaeological work with vivid stories and real details."
