The image is a photograph of a wooden plaque with the word "Foreword" written in bold letters at the top. Below the word, there is a list of the primordial Neolithic civilizations on the northern grassland of China. The list is written in black text on a white background. The plaque is mounted on a wooden wall with a gold-colored handle on the right side. The text is in a traditional Chinese font and is centered on the plaque. The background is dark, making the text stand out.
