Mienchih

— The many new discoveries and definite stratigraphic evidence of the Sanmen Gorge sites clarify the basic characteristics of these two cultures and dispel the confusion caused by J. G. Andersson of Sweden who, in excavating the Neolithic site at the we of Yangshao, Mienchih County, Honan Province (some 50 kilometres to the east of Gorge), indiscriminately assigned relics of the Yangshao and Lungshan cultures and East Chou periods which he found there to the Yangshao culture.
