Based on typical stratigraphical relationships and the features of the unearthed potteries, the remains of Longshan Culture at Shantaisi Site could be divided into three phases and six stages. Their development sequence roughly covered all of the development stages of the sites of Eastern Henan Longshan Culture, such as Wangyoufang Site at Yongcheng County, Duanzhai Site at Dancheng County, Luantai Site at Luyi County, Lutaigang Site at Qixian County, and so on. The large-sized rammed-earth architectural foundations and row houses, the sacrificial pit with bull skeletons and the grain cellars of Shantaisi Site suggested its position as the exemplary site of Longshan Culture in eastern Henan. In addition, the C14 dating results to the samples gathered in this site provided references for identifying the date of Shantaisi Site.
