The Early Wetland State
The Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City Park
The first exhibition hall tells the story of the rise and development of a kingdom built on wetlands. The formation of Taihu Lake seven thousand years ago affected people’s way of living here and created the material basis for survival and development.
During the Liangzhu Culture period around 5,000 years ago, our ancestors planted and cultivated rice. Rice was the most important food, and domestic pigs were the main source of meat.
The production of handicraft industries, such as pottery making, textile, bone making, stone processing, lacquer coating and jade carving, became more specialized and systematic. There was also a system of carved symbols which were regarded as primitive characters. The highly developed agriculture and handicraft industries laid a solid economic foundation for the formation and development of Liangzhu civilization.
