Good day, Michael. I never knew this city in China existed. Thank you. The area looks so peaceful & beautiful.

Dongtou is an amazing place. Speaking of Zhejiang Province, Dr. Pietrusewsky, some of your papers include cranial series of “ancient skeletal remains” from Hangzhou and Nanjing. What time periods should we assume are being referred to by “ancient”, roughly?
Again, beautiful!
