Abstract
From March to September 2014, Chongqing Municipal Institute of Cultural Heritage and other institutions excavated the Dashuitian (Big Paddy) Site in Wushan County. The field project revealed 473 features and recovered more than 1800 artifacts made of pottery, stone and jade of the Daxi and Shang-Zhou Cultures. Among these features and artifacts, the flexed burials, anthropomorphic and zoomorphic stone ornaments, and jade artifacts bore unique characteristics of the Daxi Culture. They are valuable information for the understanding of the primitive religion, social organization and ideology of the past.
