Sebuah tembikar Tiongkok kuno, mirip dengan benda-benda yang ditemukan di situs Lajia dan mengingatkan pada benda-benda dari budaya Qijia.
Lajia (Hanzi : 喇家 ; Pinyin : Lǎjiā ) adalah sebuah situs arkeologi pra-sejarah di dekat hulu Sungai Kuning dan perbatasan antara provinsi Tiongkok Gansu dan Qinghai . Diidentifikasikan antara 2000 dan 2001, situs Lajia menduduki wilayah lahan yang luas dan sangat berkaitan dengan budaya Qijia .[ 2] Para arkeolog meyakini bahwa situs tersebut hancur akibat bencana alam , termasuk banjir dan gempa bumi yang menewaskan sebagian besar penduduk,[ 2] namun sebab kehancuran situs tersebut masih kontroversial dan diperdebatkan.[ 3]
Artefak-artefak penting ditemukan di situs Lajia, yang meliputi tembikar, artefak budaya dan mi tertua di dunia.[ 4]
