Four cities including Anyang, Xinxiang, Jiaozuo, Puyang and 14 counties of Haihe Basin are involved in the projects. Haihe Basin is one of the worst polluted water system in China and more than 80% have been polluted. Henan is the second biggest province in Haihe Basin and five cities in its north part: Anyang, Jiaozuo, Puyang, Xinxiang and Hebi. The main rivers of these five cities have been polluted by family or industry sewage. And the pollution dose impact the middle line engineering through Henan Province of South-to-North Water Diversion. The construction of these projects will improve the waste water management and water supply of these five cities and will make environment and public sanitation better and control the pollution of Haihe Basin. These projects will help to improve the surface and underground water quality of these five cities and downriver cities and the protection of water quality and the reduction of water disease will help to improve the living quality of poor people in city. According to subproject resettlement plan, in Henan wastewater management and water supply sector project financed by ADB resettlement impact are land acquisition and temporary land acquisition. 1.2 Monitoring and Evaluation In order to supervise the implementation of resettlement action and ensure resettlers keep at least same living level, the 1st Independent Monitoring and Evaluation (IM&E) of the project is carried out in July, 2005. We find existing or potential problems and give suggestions by checking land requisition and resettlement pace, capital, management and life & production changing before and after resettlement. In the 2nd Independent Monitoring and Evaluation carried out in December, 2005, our monitoring staff followed and checked the problems found in the first M&E, further checked land requisition and resettlement pace, capital, management, and gave related suggestions on the existing and potential problems in resettlement. And then, in the 3rd Independent Monitoring and Evaluation carried out in November, 2006, the implementation situation on the suggestions proposed in the 2nd time was investigated, the income restoration of 1 affected households was evaluated through tracking investigation, and further suggestions on the remaining problems were also proposed. The 4th Independent Monitoring and Evaluation started from July, 2007. Monitoring staff of NRCR, Bohai University went to investigate all the 19 projects in the 14 towns of the 4 cities. Monitoring team had done a tracking investigation on the resettlement implementation, resettlement funds and income restoration of affected households, checked the problems found in the 3rd time, and proposed relevant suggestions on the new problems. In January, 2008, the 5th Independent Monitoring and Evaluation on this project was started. The data of resettlement impacts, resettlement fund flow by the time of this period of Monitoring and Evaluation would be collected and compared with RAP; the actual compensation and resettlement schedule would be investigated according to the schedule in RAP; the transaction of land use license, resettlement information publicity, and public participation would be investigated; whether there are complains and appeals to the resettlement work and policy would be investigated; the baseline data of the affected households of the subprojects which have been adjusted would be prepared. In November 2008, the 6th Independent Monitoring and Evaluation started. Through the data which were collected by each subprojects, we would evaluate whether the schedules and the effects of each subprojects meet the requirements of the RAP on the basis of the 5th Independent Monitoring and Evaluation. The analysis should be done if the result is unconformity with RAP. The subprojects which have been adjusted would be done a tracking investigation. In December 2009, the 7th Independent Monitoring and Evaluation on this project started. Based on the 6th Monitoring, data/info of every subproject was collected, implementation progress for the Resettlement Plans was investigated and evaluated. This is the 8th Indupendent Monbitoring and Evaluation Report. According to the schedule of Independent Monitoring and Evaluation, it was the final one. Therefore, the data of resettlement impacts, resettlement fund flow by the time of this period of Monitoring and Evaluation would be collected and compared with RAP; the actual compensation and resettlement schedule would be investigated according to the schedule in RAP; the transaction of land use license, resettlement information publicity, and public participation would be investigated; whether there are complains and appeals to the resettlement work and policy would be investigated;and at last, it will explain the overall situation of immigrant revenue recovery by tables and chart. 2 2 Monitoring and Evaluation on Resettlement Executing Institution In order to ensure smooth implementation of the projects , implement the RAP well, strengthen the supervision and management of resettlement action and achieve the target of the resettlement, all levels of Henan set up Provincial, Municipal,

The results show that under the condition of natural precipitation, water deficit in Henan Province is 240.5mm and falls to 76.3 mm after manual irrigation. The deficit period is concentrated mostly in March ~ June, accounting for more than 65% of annual water deficit. Spatially water deficit is gradually decreasing from north to south, and agricultural irrigation water productivity is relatively high in central China and relatively low in the south and north. Thereby, the region with full irrigation (the south) and the region with large crop water deficit (the north) have a relatively low irrigation water productivity; a certain degree of water deficit (in central China) is conductive to improvement of crop irrigation water productivity. And then the adaptability between regional agricultural water and water resource characteristic shall not be balanced simply based on the degree of crop water deficit, instead, it shall be closely combined with irrigation water productivity.

  • Settlement Patterns, Chiefdom Variability, and the Development of Early States in North China
    JOURNAL OF ANTHROPOLOGICAL ARCHAEOLOGY 15, 237±288 (1996) ARTICLE NO. 0010 Settlement Patterns, Chiefdom Variability, and the Development of Early States in North China LI LIU School of Archaeology, La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia Received June 12, 1995; revision received May 17, 1996; accepted May 26, 1996 In the third millennium B.C., the Longshan culture in the Central Plains of northern China was the crucial matrix in which the ®rst states evolved from the basis of earlier Neolithic societies. By adopting the theoretical concept of the chiefdom and by employing the methods of settlement archaeology, especially regional settlement hierarchy and rank-size analysis, this paper introduces a new approach to research on the Longshan culture and to inquiring about the development of the early states in China. Three models of regional settlement pattern correlating to different types of chiefdom systems are identi®ed. These are: (1) the centripetal regional system in circumscribed regions representing the most complex chiefdom organizations, (2) the centrifugal regional system in semi-circumscribed regions indicating less integrated chiefdom organization, and (3) the decentral- ized regional system in noncircumscribed regions implying competing and the least complex chief- dom organizations. Both external and internal factors, including geographical condition, climatic ¯uctuation, Yellow River's changing course, population movement, and intergroup con¯ict, played important roles in the development of complex societies in the Longshan culture. As in many cultures in other parts of the world, the early states in China emerged from a system of competing chiefdoms, which was characterized by intensive intergroup con¯ict and frequent shifting of political centers.

    Shang Beyond Anyang *2. AN JINHUAI (Henan Institute of Cultural Objects, Zhengzhou) THE SHANG CITY AT ZHENGZHOU AND RELATED PROBLEMS ABSTRACT: The Zhengzhou Shang dynasty site is the location of an early Shang city, vast in area and abundant in archaeological remains, which was discovered by Chinese archaeologists in the middle and lower Yellow River basin during the early fifties. Within the site there is a Shang dynasty rammed-earth wall extending north-south in a rectangular shape and having a circumference of 6960 meters. These are the earliest Shang wall remains discovered to date. Based on the stratigraphy and vessel types discovered in the course of excavating the four sides of the wall, it is certain that this wall is slightly later than the late Erlitou period, and that construction on it began before the lower strata of the Shang Erligang period, the "Yin Ruins" at Anyang. The discovery of the Zhengzhou Shang site was definitely not accidental. It represents an important stage in the development of ancient Chinese rammed-earth wall architecture. The method of construction places it in a contin­ uous line of development from the rammed-earth wall of the Henan area middle and late Longshan culture and the late Erlitou rammed-earth platform foundation to the rammed-earth foundations of the palaces of the Yin Ruins at Anyang. The grand scale of the Zhengzhou Shang wall, and the fact that inside and outside the wall were found palace foundations and work­ shops for the production of bronze, bone, and ceramic articles as well as numerous widespread storage pits, wells, ditches, house foundations, and tombs, and that many bronze, jade, primitive porcelain, pottery, stone, bone, and clamshell artifacts have been excavated here, including also some carved ivory pieces, pottery sculpture, and inscribed bones and pottery, lead us to conclude that the Zhengzhou Shang site was one of the early Shang capitals.

  • Lauren Ledin Anyang, China Field School 2012 Early This Summer, I
    Lauren Ledin Anyang, China Field School 2012 Early this summer, I participated in a six-week field school in China. It was a combination of training in field survey and excavation, conducting experimental archaeology, and travel to relevant archaeological sites. The first week we stayed in Beijing. During a visit to the National Museum of China we saw artifacts from the time period which we were focusing on-- the Late Shang period. This proved to be very helpful in giving us a background of information and examples of artifacts dated earlier and later than the Late Shang period. Zhoukoudian, the site of the Peking man, was our next stop in Beijing Province. Later in the week, we attended an archaeological conference and were able to join in meeting and honoring Zheng Zhenxiang, the team leader of Fu Hao's tomb excavation in Anyang. We also managed to fit in a tour of The Forbidden City and a visit to the Great Wall. Other places we traveled to included Xi’an and the surrounding areas where we saw the Terracotta Army in Lishan, the Xi’an city wall, and also the beautiful mixing of cultures at the Xi’an Mosque. Within Henan Province we ventured to a Sanmenxia museum highlighting the Western Zhou State of Guo, to the Taihang Mountains in search of sandstone sources used as abrasives in jade carving, and to the Neolithic site of Xiao Dong Nan Xue Yi Zhi. Anyang City itself is home to the National Museum of Chinese Writing, the Yin Ruins, and the Royal Cemetery, all of which we visited.

    HISTORY, REORGANISATION AND CORPORATE STRUCTURE OUR HISTORY Our history can be traced back to 2004, when the School Sponsor was established with the personal funding from Chairman Hou (the founder of our Group, father of Mr. Hou and spouse of Ms. Jiang). In 2004, the School Sponsor entered into a cooperation agreement with Henan Agricultural University (河南 農業大學) with a view to establishing the predecessor of Shangqiu University known as Huayu College of Henan Agricultural University (河南農業大學華豫學院). In 2008, the School Sponsor entered into a cooperation agreement with Anyang Normal University (安陽師範學院) with respect to the predecessor of Anyang University known as College of Humanities and Management of Anyang Normal University (安 陽師範學院人文管理學院). These predecessors were subsequently converted into independent private universities, namely Shangqiu University and Anyang University, respectively. Shangqiu University and Anyang University are our PRC Operating Schools that were primarily responsible for our track record performance. Since Mr. Hou joined our Group in August 2012, Mr. Hou has assumed the executive management functions of our PRC Operating Schools with Chairman Hou assuming a primarily strategic supervisory role. During the Track Record Period, Mr. Hou, supported by our senior management team, has been primarily responsible for the day-to-day operations and executive management of our PRC Operating Schools.

Wang) bCollaborative Innovation Center of Water Resources Efficient Utilization and Support Engineering, Henan Province 450046, China cHenan Key Laboratory of Water Environment Simulation and Treatment, Henan Province 450046, China Received 7 November 2017; Accepted 4 February 2018 abstract Water is one of the essential resources to production and living. Agriculture, industry, and living are considered as the direct water consumption. This paper employs the concept of marginal product value to estimate the water consumption marginal benefits in Henan Province. We use data on agri- cultural water consumption, industrial water consumption, and domestic water consumption of 18 cities in Henan Province surveyed from 2006 to 2013 and considered the Cobb–Douglas production function. The results showed that, during the study period, except for the marginal benefit of agricul- ture in high developed area, the industrial and domestic water use increased, and the industrial and domestic water use benefits were much higher than agricultural. At the same time, the benefit of the developed area was higher than the developing area. The benefits of agricultural water consumption and industrial water consumption in high developed area have made great improvements gradually, while benefits in low developed area have made small changes; but the benefits of domestic water con- sumption presented the opposite trend.
