In Hunan there have been documented the first manual farming, group culture began to appear, the formation of clan communes.

In the Central Plains archaeological discovery of 7,000 years ago to 10,000 years ago Pei Ligang culture, Jiahu culture, etc., has entered into the primitive agriculture, livestock and poultry breeding and handicrafts production, supplemented by fishing and hunting primitive clan society.

Later pottery and jade and the Wendai began to rise, with the Yangshao culture to colored pottery (pottery depicted in color on a red background) and the black pottery of the Longshan culture as the main feature. The Yangshao Culture dates from about 5,000 to 3,000 years ago, and belongs to the category of the Pre-Neolithic Period.

The tools of production were dominated by well-developed polished stone tools, commonly including knives, axes, adzes, chisels, arrowheads, and stone spinning wheels for textile use, and the bone tools were also quite delicate.
