History and culture:

During the Spring and Autumn Period, the bronze culture in Dalian became increasingly prosperous, and its representative work was the bronze machete dagger. In 685 BC, in order to develop Liaodong, he immigrated to Liaodong in batches, during which Qi sent troops to attack Shanrong to save Yan. In the sixth year of Gong Ling (567 BC), the State of Qi destroyed Lai (now Jiaodong). After the defeat, Lai fled across the sea and moved to Liaodong Peninsula and Dalian on a large scale. In addition, residents in the lower reaches of the Yellow River also took refuge in Liaodong along the above route during the war and famine.

In addition to bronze daggers, bronze chisels, axes, knives, spears, mirrors and pottery were unearthed in Dalian during the Western Weekend and Spring and Autumn Period, which was the basis of the immigration tide at that time.
