Yongho-dong Site

The Yongho-dong Paleolithic site revealed that Daejeon's history can be traced back to the Middle Paleolithic period, some 100,000 years ago. The tanged points (a hafted stone tool used for hunting) and artefacts made using the polished-stone technique excavated here are very important material for understanding the culture of the Middle and Upper Paleolithic peoples who lived along the Geumgang River, and for research into the character of Paleolithic culture in Northeast Asia.
