At a press briefing on the 2nd, the State Administration of Cultural Heritage
said that during the 15th Five-Year Plan period China will prioritise
digital/intelligent archaeology and multidisciplinary collaboration with natural
and social sciences, strengthen archaeological science laboratories, and
accelerate R&D and application of key archaeological technologies. The plan also
calls for building key archaeology institutions, implementing a national
archaeology talent revitalisation programme, supporting university
field-training bases, promoting industry‑academia‑research joint training, and
cultivating frontier interdisciplinary disciplines to improve the archaeology
discipline development framework.
