Since 1983, Suyanggae site has been investigated through 9 full-scale excavations, which include the first 4 excavations to the LocalityⅠ from 1983 to 1985, 3 ones to the Loc.Ⅱ from 1995 to 1996, and the 8th and 9th to the Loc. Ⅲ in 2001 and 2008. The Locs.Ⅰ,Ⅱ are formed on the 2nd Terrance, and the Loc. Ⅲ is on the 3rd Terrace. Through excavations, it has been revealed that the each locality has different culture, such as the Lower Paleolithic in the Loc. Ⅲ, the Middle, Upper Paleolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age in the Loc.Ⅰ, and some Iron Age dwellings in the Loc. Ⅱ. The significance is widely acknowledged that the site has been designated as the National Historical Site No. 398, on where a museum has been built to contribute to research on the Suyanggae Culture. The characteristics of Suyanggae site is like the followings. First, there has been found a series of cultural phases in the strata from the Lower Paleolithic to the Iron Age. The gravel layer on the 3rd Terrace revealed a cultural phase consisting of grave lst one tools, which is thought older than 300,000bp by geological dating. The various kinds of lithic artifacts are considered proofs of adaptations in each layer. And the Middle Paleolithic layer in the 2nd Terrace, the Loc.Ⅰ shows different feature on the raw material using quartz and sandstone. Second, given several types of handaxes it appears that the handaxe tradition still lasted in 18~15ka at least. The handaxes have been noticed with the difference to the Japanese Paleolithic, in that those have some aspects such as various types, extended sizes, and patterned shapes. It is thought that there are few sites revealing that assorted types of handaxes in the Upper Paleolithic until now. Third, a number of blades, blade cores were found that gives us valuable materials to study the blade tradition in the region. It is seldom that striking platforms on cores were adjusted to make various types of blades. With the blade technique, more than 250 microblade cores, classified into the Type Ⅲ, are considered showing some technical attributes of the blade tradition in the Northeast Asian Region. Like these, Suyanggae site has occupied an important archaeological position, that comprises a continuous series of cultural phases, a large amount of lithic assemblage more the 30,000, the geographical location in the region, and the typical lithic types and tool-making techniques. It is well expected that further comparative research will play a great role in archaeological research of the Northeast Asian Region.
