The 56-year-old man is skilled in the craft of restoring cultural relics. In the past 40 years, he has restored more than 6,000 cultural relic items and was deeply involved in the excavation of all the eight “sacrificial pits” found at Sanxingdui Ruins site. After the completion of the field work in the Sanxingdui Ruins site, sorting, protection and restoration of newly unearthed cultural relics have become the most important work in the current research. “There are probably tens of thousands of relics waiting to be restored, and I can't finish the job in my generation. It needs to be done from generation to generation,” Guo Hanzhong said, “Repairing cultural relics needs experience.
