In 2008,archaeological field survey was conducted to the southeast of the Lake Dian area,covering areas of 64 sq km.This is the first application of systematic regional survey method in Yunnan.This survey discovered 43 sites,25 of which belonged to the Bronze Age,nine crossed the Bronze Age through the Eastern Han Dynasty,Three-Kingdoms Period and Western Jin Dynasty,five belonged to the Han Dynasty and the rest four were cemeteries.The analyses based on the survey results showed that the alluvial plain around the Lake Dian was very possibly the central region for the bronze cultures of the Lake Dian area to emerge and develop;the areas with densely distributed sites of the Han Dynasty were close to the seat of Yizhou Prefecture,which was the political center of this area at that time.This survey laid foundation for the archaeological researches on the settlement patterns in the Lake Dian area.
