The Simagou site covers an area of 30,000 square metres and consists of 13 pit houses. More than 1,300 objects, mostly stone axes and shovels, were also unearthed, reports Xinhua news agency.
"Most objects were chipped stone tools, meaning stoneware production was the main activity at that time. And the large quantity of animal bones and stoneware show that people made their living by hunting and collecting food," said Hu Xiaonong, head of the archaeological team.
Experts have said that the site had distinctive features of Yumin culture but was more advanced than similar relics discovered earlier.
Yumin culture, a civilisation between the Paleolithic Age and Neolithic Age, was first found in 2014 in the middle part of Mongolia.
