[edit] Important Distinction of a Museum vs a location

Sanxingdui is a museum and artefact site in China - however it's not a city on any map. It's a museum outside of a small-medium sized city in Sichuan, China. Phreakster 1998 15:29, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Not really ,the name of the museum is based on a local name called Sanxingdui.So the name of the museum is Sanxingdui,not the contrary.--Ksyrie 19:30, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, I think we are in agreement. The point was that Sanxingdui is not a modern city. It may be a museum at this time, and at one time was an ancient city. At this time - it's an archeological site and major tourist draw to the province. However, it's location is on outside of Guanghan, a small city in the sichuan province. Further, in the modern day, when the site was discovered - it was beneath rural farmland. Phreakster 1998 03:39, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
