　　"Tianshouyu," an imperial ritual wine vessel of the late Shang dynasty, is covered with three layers of patterns. It is also one of China's Class A heritage relics. It was found amongst the ruins located at Shamao Hill and has been on tour in countries such as the U.S., Germany, and Japan. It was once used as the emblem of the Hubei Provincial Museum.

　　“天兽御”尊全身花纹分为不同的三层，是商代晚期宫廷盛典御酒礼器，属于国家一级文物。59年前，“天兽御”尊在位于武汉经开区纱帽山的遗址周边被发现，先后运往美国、德国、日本等地巡回展出，曾作为湖北省博物馆的馆徽。

　　The "Hanyang Man skull fossil" was discovered in 1997 at the Shamao River Bank. It dates to 10,000 to 50,000 years ago, making it the oldest human skull found in the Wuhan section of the Yangtze River.

　　汉阳人头盖骨化石于1997年，在位于武汉经开区的纱帽江滩被发现，年代距今约1万～5万年，是长江沿岸武汉区域发现的年份最远的人类头骨。
