Routines of antiquity in focus

A screen is set up under the exhibit, which allows the visitors to view the skull in 360-degree rotation and explore its details, while reading further about trepanation surgeries in ancient times.

At the original excavation area in the museum, three touch screens are available. Visitors can learn about the structures and materials of the ancient pottery kilns and water wells, and also watch animations demonstrating how ancient people transported water and crafted pottery ware.

"Some of the digital features serve to explain the artifacts, while others, such as QR codes, allow visitors to take photos and view the artifacts even when they return home. Through multimedia expressions, we hope to better convey the evolution of the ancient Luxian county spanning thousands of years to our audience," Li says.

To deepen public participation in cultural heritage protection, the heritage site park plans to launch a series of experiential events, collaborate with archaeological research institutes, and invite experts and scholars to give lectures.
