| Abstract: |
Ancient Chinese literature refers to "Shu", "Yue" and "Jiaozhi". Shu refers to Sichuan province. Yue refers to "Pue Yue" and "Dian Yue" distributed in Southwest China and Southeast Asia. Jiaozhi is located in the northern part of the Indochina Peninsula, which includes Luofield, Luoking, Luomarquis and Luogeneral. Historical records and archaeological data fit remarkably well: There are many jade zhang blades found in the Red River Valley of northern Vietnam. Their shapes are very similar to Sanxingdui culture (1700-1100 BCE) in Sichuan, China. Yili sites have uncovered collared jade Bis, stone Bis and class-A ash-pit in Vinh Phuc province, Yunnan and Dongshan Bronze Age culture of Vietnam. Similar inscriptions on the bronze dagger-axe have been unearthed in Vietnam. Archaeological sites and unearthed cultural relics are distributed in a traffic line from Sichuan to Southeast Asia. It shows that the traffic line was smooth from Sichuan, Yunnan to the Indian Peninsula in the Pre-Qin period and confirmed cultural exchange interaction of between China and Vietnam since the Shang dynasty.
