(231206) -- BEIJING, Dec. 6, 2023 (Xinhua) -- Archeologists work at the relics site of the Xiongjialing Dam in Jingmen, central China's Hubei Province, Dec. 4, 2023. The Xiongjialing Dam, which was initially built around 5,100 years ago, is part of the Qujialing relics site in the city of Jingmen, central China's Hubei Province. The dam, complete with a reservoir and spillway, has been identified as China's earliest known water conservancy project. The design of the dam suggests that ancient people in the area had learned to harness water based on the landform rather than simply implementing measures to defend themselves against floods, said He Nu, a researcher with the Institute of Archaeology, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
