Shi Xingbang, pioneering Chinese archaeologist who helped excavate Terracotta Warriors and was crucial for Three Gorges Dam, dies at 99

Shi Xingbang, one of the forefathers of China’s vibrant world of archaeology, passed away last Friday at the age of 99.

The famous scientist had his hands in some of China’s most important discoveries since the Communist Party began running the country.

He was a key figure in organising the excavation of the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum, famously known for the Terracotta Army, and was involved in part of the archaeological survey of the Three Gorges region before the dam was completed in 2003.

In the academic world, Shi is most famous for his 1953 discovery of the Banpo Village, estimated to be about 6,000 years old and was the first neolithic settlement ever found in China.

He joined the Communist Party in 1984 and was a party representative during the 7th National People’s Congress from 1988-1993, after which he retired.

Shi dedicated most of his life to archaeology, but he was not allowed to pursue the subject from 1966-1976 during the Cultural Revolution.

In the China Daily interview, Shi said he “owed half of his success to his wife”.
