General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized when presiding over the 23rd collective study session of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee (hereinafter referred to as the “9·28” important speech)，We must attach great importance to archaeological work，Strive to build bet365 offer characteristics、bet365 offer style、bet365 offer style archeology，Better understanding of the long history、The profound bet365 offer civilization，To promote the excellent traditional bet365 offer culture、Enhance cultural confidence and provide strong support。General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important speech is inspiring，Inspiring，Will lead the development of bet365 offer archeology in the long term、Research on bet365 offer Civilization、The way forward for the protection and utilization of China’s historical and cultural heritage。Marked by the excavation of the Yangshao Village site in Mianchi, Henan in 1921，The birth of bet365 offer archeology，It has gone through a hundred years of development，Can be divided into four stages of development。

　　The first stage is bet365 offer 1921 to 1948.A limited number of field archaeological excavations were carried out during this period，Except Yin Ruins in Anyang, Henan，The rest are scattered investigations and excavations，The foundation of archaeological work is quite weak。Swedish Andersen presided over the excavation of the Yangshao Village site，He conducted a comparative study on the painted pottery of the Yangshao Culture in China, the painted pottery of the Anno Culture in Turkmenistan, and the painted pottery of the Triboye Culture in Ukraine，Conclusion that Yangshao Culture painted pottery was introduced from west to east，Based on this, the Western theory of the origin of bet365 offer civilization was proposed，It has become the mainstream view in bet365 offer and foreign academic circles for a long time。Reviewing the archaeological work before the founding of New China，We should always remember，Imperialist powers once invaded China，Wantless looting of our country’s historical and cultural heritage，Causing irreparable losses。Take the Chifeng Hongshanhou site as an example，Archaeological excavation by the Japanese in 1935，All unearthed cultural relics were transported to Japan，Now collected by Kyoto University。Only under the leadership of the Communist Party of China，National prosperity，National unity，Social stability，Only in this way can we protect and inherit our historical and cultural heritage。

Due to the development of archaeological work，The understanding of the origin of bet365 offer civilization from all walks of life has undergone major turning changes，Rich archaeological materials confirm the theory of the local origin of bet365 offer civilization，Completely negates the erroneous conclusion that bet365 offer civilization originated in the West。This is an important practice in using archaeological results to demonstrate cultural confidence，It also highlights the great social and political significance of archeology。

　　The third stage is bet365 offer 1978 to 2011.After reform and opening up，The development of bet365 offer archeology has entered the fast lane。June 20, 1987，In order to strengthen the leadership and management of cultural relics and archaeology work across the country，The State Council decided to change the Cultural Relics Administration Bureau of the Ministry of Culture into the National Cultural Relics Administration，Can exercise powers independently。This is the Party Central Committee、The State Council strengthens the unified leadership of national cultural relics and archaeological work、Important decisions of centralized management and scientific planning。
