摘要

In research on the legendary Xia Dynasty of ancient China, the famous archaeological site of Erlitou and its culture are the most debated topics. A key question is whether this ancient culture is truly related to the Xia Dynasty. This study combines traditional literature (Xia Xiao Zheng), archaeological evidence (on alligators), and climate simulation (of autumn rains) to demonstrate that the ancient Chinese phenological calendar, Xia Xiao Zheng, likely originated in the same region as the Erlitou culture. A logical explanation of these findings is that both Xia Xiao Zheng and the Erlitou culture are indeed closely related to the Xia Dynasty.
