District (People's Republic Of China)
The term ''district'', in the context of China, is used to refer to several unrelated political divisions in both ancient and modern China. In the modern context, district (), formally city-governed district, city-controlled district, or municipal district (), are subdivisions of a Municipality of China, municipality or a prefecture-level city. The rank of a district derives from the rank of its city. Districts of a municipality are Prefecture (China), prefecture-level; districts of a sub-provincial city are sub-prefecture-level; and districts of a prefecture-level city are Counties of China, county-level.

Liujiang Hominid
The Liujiang men () are among the earliest modern humans (''Homo sapiens'') found in East Asia. Their remains were discovered in the Tongtianyan Cave (通天岩) in Liujiang, Guangxi, China. The remains were excavated in 1958. The remains consist of a well-preserved adult cranium, a right innominate (hip bone), complete sacrum, multiple vertebrae, and two femoral fragments. All remains are believed to belong to one individual. Very little is known about the specimen due to a lack of academic sources published within the United States. There seems to be a discrepancy in determining accurate dates of the specimen due to the unknown stratigraphic context in which the remains were found. The Liujiang sample was found to have craniometric and morphological similarities to modern day East Asian and Southeast Asian peoples (historically known as "Mongoloid" characteristics), which is quite surprising and suggesting that these features are thus quite old, dating back to early huma ...

Zhiren Cave
Zhiren Cave () is a karstic cave in the Mulan Mountains that overlooks the Hejiang River in Chongzuo, Guangxi, China. Zhiren Cave is an early Late Pleistocene site that has yielded the fossil remains of possibly anatomically modern humans with some mixed archaic human features. Fossils The fossil remains were discovered by Chinese paleontologists in 2007. The fossils were covered by a continuous layer of flowstone, a layer that was initially dated to around 113,000 to 100,000 BP. A more thorough re-dating was later undertaken, and gives an estimated date of around 116,000 to 106,000 BP. Some of the large mammal remains discovered at Zhiren Cave include those from ''Pongo pygmaeus'', ''Elephas kiangnanensis'', ''Elephas maximus'', '' Megatapirus augustus'', ''Rhinoceros sinensis'', ''Megalovis guangxiensis'', Cervus unicolor, ''Ursus thibetanus'', ''Arctonyx collaris'' and ''Panthera pardus''. Around 25% of the large mammal species discovered at the site are now extinct. Three p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
