Huangshan Site was a large central settlement featured by jade production across the periods of Yangshao Culture (5,000 to 3,000 BC), Qujialing Culture (3,300 to 2,600 BC) and Shijiahe Culture (dated to more than 4,000 years ago) of the Neolithic Age. Therefore, it is the largest site ever known in Nanyang Basin with the most valuable and richest cultural remains, reflecting complicated social structure and civilization progress in cultural communication and integration between China's southern and northern regions. The Neolithic Huangshan Site is an important discovery of China, which is one of the key research objects for the study of civilization origin and cultural development in Nanyang Basin and Jianghan Plain as well as the study of the whole Chinese civilization.
黄山遗址是一处年代跨越新石器时代仰韶文化、屈家岭文化、石家河文化，涉及玉石器制作性质的中心性大遗址，是目前南阳盆地中已发现的面积最大，遗迹规格最高，内涵丰富的遗址，反映了当时南北文化交流融合发展的社会复杂化和文明进程，是探讨南阳盆地、江汉平原文明起源和文化发展的关键遗址，也是中华文明研究的关键遗址，为我国新石器时代考古的一次重大发现。

The remains of jade production in the Neolithic Huangshan Site were supported by Dushan jade (a type of soft jade mined in Nanyang) resources and supplemented by jade materials from other places, reflecting the transformation from family workshops in the late Yangshao period to the labor-intensive production in the Qujialing period. The site was still used for large-scale jade ware processing during the Shijiahe period. Such an archaeological finding bridges the gap of jade handicraft industry development in the Central Plains and the middle reaches of the Yangtze River during the Neolithic Age. Together with the bone processing remains, it is an important research object for the study of social division of labor at that time.
