Xituanshan (Chinese: 西团山; pinyin: Xī tuánshān, Korean서단산; Hanja西團山, 9th-6th centuries BCE)[1] is a Late Bronze Age group of stone burials in Jilin, China. It was designated a Major National Historical and Cultural Site by the Chinese government in 2001.[2]

The site gave its name to a particular style of objects and architecture called the Xituanshan Culture, distributed throughout Jilin, Changchun and southern Heilongjiang.
