From the cave at the crossroads of China, central Asia and Europe, archeologists found remains dating back 3,500 to 45,000 years. It is the first Paleolithic cave site found in Xinjiang. The processing method for an oval stone scraper with a sharp edge found in the cave was similar to that for artifacts from cultures in the western part of the Eurasia Continent. This finding could help decode cultural exchange between both ends of Eurasia, and understand the migration of human ancestors, according to experts.
