   Palaeolithic implements have been recovered from 1953 in the Ordos and in Shansi. The most important site is Tingtsun in Hsiangfen county of the latter province. Here were found an abundant fossil fauna, three hominid teeth and over two thousand artefacts of a type more advanced than those of Pithecanthropus pekinensis.
