Extended data:

The ancient human fossils found in Guling Cave, Hufu Town, Yixing show that the ancestors of Yixing lived in this land as early as 10,000 years ago. Around 7000 years, the primitive agriculture and handicraft industry in Yixing have developed to a certain level, creating a "camel pier culture" with local characteristics.

Five thousand years ago, Liangzhu culture, characterized by jade making and primitive religion, achieved great development in the local area. During the Shang Dynasty, there was a "Guangfulin culture" represented by geometric printed pottery and primitive celadon.

From the Western Zhou Dynasty to the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Yixing belonged to the State of Wu.

In the fourth year of Zhou Yuanwang (473 BC), Gou Jian, King of Yue, sent troops to destroy Wu, and Yixing was transferred to Yue. In the 30th year of King Xian of Zhou Dynasty (355 BC), the State of Chu rose up and destroyed Yue, and Yixing was returned to the State of Chu.

After Qin unified China, the county system was popularized. In 22 1 year BC, Yixing was officially established as Yangxian county.
