Unearthing the Past

The exhibition Historical Imprints of Lingnan: Major Archaeological Discoveries of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau showcases more than 400 archaeological artefacts from the three regions’ Stone and Bronze Ages. Divided into four parts, the exhibition displays handmade tools, ceramics and cultural implements used in succeeding dynasties which enhanced the civilization of the Lingnan region, which in turn played a significant role in the commercial exchange between China and the West. The items reveal insights into the society, culture, technology, warfare, livelihoods and trade of the times.
