Neolithic agricultural communities appear in China's cool and temperate Huang He Basin, the earliest circa 6080.
Banpo, near present Xi'an in central China, located in a fertile, alluvial lowland at the foot of the Qing Ling Shan along the Wei, a tributary of the Huang He, is settled about this time.
The major switch from hunting-gathering methods of food collection to an agricultural way of life in the north of China, especially the fertile region watered by the Huang He, and also along the southeastern coast, is apparently independent of the Near Eastern Neolithic revolution.
