The Hongshan culture ({{zh|s={{linktext|红山文化}}|t={{linktext|紅山文化}}|p={{linktext|Hóngshān wénhuà}}}}) was a Neolithic culture in the Liao river basin. Hongshan sites have been found in an area stretching from Inner Mongolia to Liaoning, and dated from about 4700 to 2900 BC.[1] The culture is named after Hongshanhou ({{zh|s=红山後|t=紅山後|p=Hóngshānhòu}}), a site in Hongshan District, Chifeng. The Hongshanhou site was discovered by the Japanese archaeologist Torii Ryūzō in 1908 and extensively excavated in 1935 by Kōsaku Hamada and Mizuno Seiichi.[2] Historical contextIn northeast China, Hongshan culture was preceded by Xinglongwa culture (6200–5400 BC), Xinle culture (5300–4800 BC), and Zhaobaogou culture, which may be contemporary with Xinle and a little later. Yangshao culture was in the larger area and contemporary with Hongshan culture (see map). These two cultures interacted with each other. ArtifactsHongshan burial artifacts include some of the earliest known examples of jade working. The Hongshan culture is known for its jade pig dragons and embryo dragons. Clay figurines, including figurines of pregnant women, are also found throughout Hongshan sites. Small copper rings were also excavated.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}}[3] ReligionThe archaeological site at Niuheliang is a unique ritual complex associated with the Hongshan culture. Excavators have discovered an underground temple complex—which included an altar—and also cairns in Niuheliang. The temple was constructed of stone platforms, with painted walls. Archaeologists have given it the name Goddess Temple due to the discovery of a clay female head with jade inlaid eyes.[4] It was an underground structure, 1m deep.[5] Included on its walls are mural paintings. Housed inside the Goddess Temple are clay figurines as large as three times the size of real-life humans.[4] The exceedingly large figurines are possibly deities, but for a religion not reflective in any other Chinese culture.[6] The existence of complex trading networks and monumental architecture (such as pyramids{{Examples|date=August 2017}}{{Citation needed|date=August 2017}} and the Goddess Temple) point to the existence of a "chiefdom"[7] in these prehistoric communities. Painted pottery was also discovered within the temple.[5] Over 60 nearby tombs have been unearthed, all constructed of stone and covered by stone mounds, frequently including jade artifacts.[8] Cairns were discovered atop two nearby two hills, with either round or square stepped tombs, made of piled limestone. Entombed inside were sculptures of dragons and tortoises.[5]It has been suggested that religious sacrifice might have been performed within the Hongshan culture.[5] Feng shuiJust as suggested by evidence found at early Yangshao culture sites, Hongshan culture sites also provide the earliest evidence for feng shui. The presence of both round and square shapes at Hongshan culture ceremonial centers suggests an early presence of the gaitian cosmography ("round heaven, square earth").[9] Early feng shui relied on astronomy to find correlations between humans and the universe.[10] Development of Chinese civilizationSome Chinese archaeologists such as Guo Da-shun see the Hongshan culture as an important stage of early Chinese civilization.[11][12] Whatever the linguistic affinity of the ancient denizens, Hongshan culture is believed to have exerted an influence on the development of early Chinese civilization.[13] The culture also have contributed to the development of settlements in ancient Korea.[14] GeneticsThe representatives of the Hongshan Culture location Niuheliang (6500–5000 BP) identified 3 different Y-chromosome subclades haplotypes: N1 (xN1a, N1c), C and O3a (O3a3).[15][16] See also
