The Archaeological Heritage of the Lenggong Valley are four sites related to early man outside Africa.
Palaeolithic workshops and tools have been preserved, abandoned due to meteorite impact and volcanic ash. One human fossil skeleton from that period has been found – known as Perak Man.
The sites are located in two clusters around the town of Lenggong, which lies in the Malay Peninsula. They include:
• Bukit Bunuh and Kota Tampan (where also the archeological museum and field station are located)
• the limestone outcrop with the cave Gua Harimau
• the open-air workshop site at Bukit Jawa
• the limestone massif Bukit Kepala Gajah containing the caves Gua Gunung Runtuh,
Gua Teluk Kelawar and Gua Kajang
