Abstract
In the Xinglongwa site in Aohan Banner, Inner Mongolia, it is estimated that its culture dates to approximately 6000-5000 BCE. However, after extensive archeological pursuits over a 4-year period in that area, a human skull unearthed at the Xinglongwa culture site, evidencing dental treatment was found dating back to 8,000 years, which may represent the earliest known evidence of dental treatment in the world.
