Abstract: The palaeolithic cave sites which are located near Dancheng village 35 km away from Heshun were excavated three times from 1983 to 1985. Over three thousands of stone artifacts, twenty-three kinds of fossil mammals, two fragments of human skull were discovered. The animal assemblage and 14C dating (31495±1570 B. P. or 28730±1175 B. P.) suggest the Upper Pleistocene or the Upper Palaeolithic for these sites. The discovery of these sites provide us more materials to learn the relationship between the Upper Palaeolithic human and culture in North China.

Key words: Human frontal bones; Palaeolithic artifacts; Upper Pleistocene
