Neolithic Age

This discovery is related to the Hongshan Culture, a Neolithic society that developed in the western Liao River basin and inhabited the northeastern region of China and Inner Mongolia from 4700 to 2900 BC.

"Naga Rakitan" in English is "Assembly Dragon".

The following 'Bahasa' text translated to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "This "fake" dragon has a length of about 20 centimeters. This artifact is assembled by combining several shells to form the head, body, and tail."

"Cultural Hongshan"

This discovery has significant importance because it predates the emergence of the C-shaped jade dragon, which is a distinctive feature of Hongshan Culture. Hongshan Culture is famous for its intricate jade carvings, including embryonic dragons, as an early example of such art.

This culture is considered a significant stage in the early development of China. Although the linguistic relationships of the ancient society are still controversial, the Hongshan Culture is believed to have contributed to the development of Chinese civilization.

"Metaphysics"

"Jade objects from Hongshan Culture are generally found in sacred places or advanced ritual sites. Nevertheless, this dragon provides a different perspective by showing the metaphysical beliefs held by the simpler inhabitants of Hongshan Culture settlements."

"The discovery is an important finding that fills the gap in the knowledge of archaeologists about the dragon symbol in the early Hongshan Culture."
"Song Jinshan, President of the Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology of Inner Mongolia, interviewed by Global Times."
