Discovered in 1996, the Jiaojie site is located in a karst cave at Acheng (Haerbin municipality, Heilongjiang province, 183 m a.s.l.). Un to now, it represents the oldest palaeolithic site in the province as well as the northermost one in China (45°21'07.7" N-127°05'16.8" E). The deposit is divided into 6 layers. The S. kirchbergensis teeth come from the 6th layer composed by reddish yellow clay with breccia. Uranium-series dating performed on the S. kirchbergensis teeth gave an age of 175 ka BP.
