Abstract: The Shizishan paleolithic site is 1ocated on the south bank of Dadu River, just oppsite toFulin town. During the reexamination in April, 1984, we found some artifacts and a few fossils such as Rhinoceros sinensis and Lanceolaria · gladiolus and gatheredartifacts on the landsurface. 45 artifacts and two pieces of fossils are described in this paper.
The stone artifacts are mainly made of flint. The flakes are mainlyproduced by directpercussion and sometimes with bipolar technique.The shapes of most flakes and cores are irregular. All stone artifacts are small in size. Three fourth of the stone tools are made of flake.Less than one fifth of the artifacts are tools which are the only known scrapers. The scraperswith left edge are common than those with right edge. The stone tools were roughly retouch-ed by direct percussion technique and the length of trimmed edges are relatively short.
The above mentioned characters of the Sh izishan site paleolithic assemblage bear strongresemblances to Fulin industry. Both should belong to the same culture. However, it shouldbe mentioned that the double wedge -shapedcores found from the site are the first discovery ofsuch kind of artifacts in paleolithic materials of South China and it shows the existence ofmicrolithic industry in this site. According to characters of stone artifacts, fossils and geomor-phic position, we consider that this site is probably not later than terminal Pleistocene andis tentatively dated to be upper paleolithic.
