The materials of stone artifacts are mostly quartz. The types of tools include side-scraper, end -scraper, chop-ping tool, burin and point. In the light of typology, technology and size, Junan stone industry is similar to those of Xiachuan Culture, Shanxi Province, and its age may be Upper paleolithic or later.
