Paleolithic stonewares are found in 6 sites that belong to different developrnontal stages of Paleolithic culture. It is indeed a rare underground treasure house , for in a fair iy small area hidden so many human fossils with so rich a content.

周口店附近人类化石有三处，分别代表从直立人到今天的所有三个进化阶段，即直立人、早期智人和晚期智人;六个地点都有旧石器，属于旧石器文化发展的不同时期。在这样一个范围不大的地区内人类化石、旧石器时代文化遗物如此集中、内涵如此丰富多彩，实属罕见，真不愧为地下宝库。“北京人”头盖骨的发现，使周口店成为世界闻名的早期人类发祥地。在漫长的历史岁月中，这里曾生活着距今70万年至20万年的“北京人”、距今10万年左右的“新洞人”和距今1.8万年的“山顶洞人”。
