In 2024, Xizang's archaeological work achieved groundbreaking achievements in four pivotal domains: early human migration on the plateau, Neolithic cultural systems, the origins of early complex societies, and the legacy of the Tubo Dynasty. These cultural relics such as mulberry silk, royal brocade, and Go pieces unearthed in Xizang provide evidence of cultural exchanges and material circulation between Xizang and the Central Plains, offering solid material evidence for the pattern of diversity and unity of the Chinese nation.
