The Phùng Nguyên culture of Vietnam (c. 2,000 - 1,500 BCE) is a name given to a culture of the Bronze Age in Vietnam during the Hong Bang Dynasty which takes its name from an archeological site in Phùng Nguyên, eighteen kilometers (eleven miles) east of Việt Trì discovered in 1958.
It is during this period that rice cultivation is introduced into the Red River region from southern China.
The most typical artifacts are pediform adzes of polished stone.
