Shimao Site: The largest prehistoric city site in China, known as the 'Stone Breaks the Sky'

"Shimao is one of the largest, best preserved and central capital sites in China and even in East Asia in the late Neolithic period. The study of Shimao is of great significance for explaining the early development of our Chinese civilization more than 4000 years ago," said Han Jianye, a professor at the School of History of Renmin University of China.
