An exhibition named "Craftsmanship and Ingenuity — Showcase of Preservation and Restoration Achievements of Newly Excavated Cultural Relics from the Sangxingdui Site" opened here on Tuesday.

The provincial cultural relics and archaeology research institute said on Tuesday that, since 2022, over 400 sites have been identified, including high-level building foundations, ash pits, ash ditches, and stone artifacts production and processing sites at Sanxingdui. More than 4,000 artifacts, including pottery, jadeware and stoneware, have been unearthed. [Xinhua/Tang Wenhao]
