Mr. Zeng Lingyi, an associate researcher in archaeology at Guizhou Academy of Social Sciences, explained the ancient sundial on the spot.
Mr. Zeng Lingyi said: "Anthropology studies human beings from Africa to the whole world, looking up at the stars, and the earth has developed astronomy. The pyramids of ancient Egypt and Pharaoh and the Tower of Babel in Babylon are all artificial tools for observing astronomical phenomena. Fuyi, an ancient man in China, first continued the intellectual discovery and observation of celestial phenomena by primitive people. "
The time is about 10,000 years in the late Paleolithic period, which is conducive to the prosperity of agricultural civilization in China! Primitive people attached great importance to male and female genitalia, and the reproductive culture was developed!

From the perspective of promoting culture and developing tourism, there is much to be done. This kind of cultural resources can make up for the lack of cultural heritage of Huangguoshu, a famous tourist attraction in our province, from the thickness of national culture and historical culture.
Therefore, I hope to comprehensively consider the strategic layout and requirements of the country for the tourism industry, make a good plan, and make the project bigger and stronger.
