Pre-Qin musical instruments excavated in Northeast China include Xiaohexi pottery drums from the Neolithic period,Shuiquan Village mouth reeds and Xiajia(Xia Family)Hamlet special chimes from the Xia Shang period,and bronze short sword tomb chimes from the Warring States period,which were distributed in different cultural periods.From view of the instrumental morphology,Xinglongwa bone flute and stone ocarina can play many basic music pieces,and the sound of Xiajia Hamlet stone chime is more stable,but the sound of the Warring States musical bell excavated in Sanguan Suburb is not as good as that of the Central Plains,as well as the technique.The musical instruments cater to the ritual system of the Central Plains,and the ritual function of the stone chime of Xiajia Hamlet is obvious,while the musical culture traces of the mutual influence and integration of the Northeast and Central Plains cultures can be seen in the Xiaohexi ceramic drums and other musical instruments.
