Xia Dynasty (about 2070 BC-65438 BC+0600 BC) was the first hereditary dynasty in the Central Plains recorded in China's traditional history books. It is generally believed that Xia Dynasty was a country with multiple tribal alliances or complex emirates. There are a certain number of bronze and jade ritual vessels in the cultural relics of the Xia Dynasty, dating from the late Neolithic Age to the early Bronze Age. The Xia Dynasty was once called "Xia" in history. According to historical records, Yuchuan is located in Zi Qi, which changed the abdication system of primitive tribes and created the hereditary throne of China for nearly 4,000 years. 1 1 tribes of Xia nationality are related to the central royal family in Xia Houshi by blood, political enfeoffment and economic tribute, which roughly constitute the core territory of Xia dynasty. Summer begins in the west of Henan Province and the south of Shanxi Province, east to the junction of Henan Province, Shandong Province and Hebei Province, south to the north of Hubei Province and north to the south of Hebei Province. The geographical centers of this area are Yanshi, Dengfeng, Xinmi and Yuzhou. Xia dynasty spread to14th generation17th king, which lasted about 47 1 year and was destroyed by Shang dynasty. Later generations often call themselves "Huaxia", making it synonymous with China. Although there are many records about the Xia Dynasty in China's traditional literature, they are all written late, and there is no recognized direct evidence of the existence of the Xia Dynasty, such as the words of the same period of the Xia Dynasty as self-evidence, so the authenticity of the existence of the Xia Dynasty has been questioned by modern historians. Erlitou culture discovered in the western part of Henan Province and the southern part of Shanxi Province has the basic conditions of Xia culture era and geographical location, but the existence of Xia Dynasty has not been confirmed, because there is no written record of the same period like Oracle Bone Inscriptions in Yin Ruins. Many Chinese and foreign historians believe that the whole period or the first or second phase of Erlitou site in yanshi city, Henan Province may be the remains of the capital of Xia Dynasty, but they are still looking for conclusive evidence to clarify it.

We have a long history in China, and everyone knows it. However, many historians are controversial about the existence of the Xia Dynasty, because the characters and bronzes of the Xia Dynasty have not yet been unearthed. We should know that the appearance of writing and metal objects is an important criterion for historians to judge whether an ancient historical country belongs to "civilization" or "culture", but now the Xia Dynasty has not proved that it has writing and bronzes, which does not mean that the Xia Dynasty is a "civilization" and can only be regarded as a tribal alliance. Now, we can only expect archaeological miracles.
