(HBO) - Hoa Binh province has been seen as a cradle of human development. The traces of the Hoa Binh Civilisation found in the province have helped domestic and foreign archaeologists, scientists and anthropologists learn more about the early days of modern humans.


 

Hoa Binh province holds a press conference announcing a writing contest on the Hoa Binh Civilisation in 2022.

Deputy Director of the provincial Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism Luu Huy Linh said archaeological relics of the Hoa Binh Civilisation scatter across Southeast Asia. In Vietnam, they are mainly found in the northern province of Hoa Binh with 72 sites, and Thanh Hoa province in the central region, 32 sites.

The vestiges unveil the cave dwelling as well as development periods of the Hoa Binh Civilisation, he added.

Notably, in the era of the Hoa Binh Civilisation, there were changes in biology, social life and livelihood methods of humans, shifting from hunting small animals and gathering vegetables and fruits in the forest to primitive agricultural production in the late period.

The northern mountainous province is now home to 10 archaeological relics of the Hoa Binh Civilisation recognised as national sites, according to the official.

To preserve and promote the civilisation’s value, Hoa Binh has stepped up the communication work to raise the awareness and responsibility of all-level Party Committees and authorities and people in this regard.

The province has also continued reviewing the list of the archaeological relics, making dossiers for rankings, while promoting tourism there.

At the same time, it has forged cooperation with both domestic and international organisations, and encouraged organisations and individuals to contribute to the research work.

Through different communication means, such as internet and newspapers, Hoa Binh has promoted the Hoa Binh Civilisation’s value at home and abroad. Meanwhile, the connectivity in cultural tourism has been set up and expanded in an effort to raise public understanding about the culture./.
