    1 The earliest toilet in China appeared in the ruins of the clan tribe in Banpo Village, Xi'an 5,000 years ago, when the toilet was just a pit set up outside the house. Ancient cities in China began to have public toilets as early as the Xia and Shang periods. The earliest ancient Chinese document mentioning public toilets is the Zhou Li, which refers to public toilets built next to roads as "road toilets".

    In the Han Dynasty, the public toilets in the city were called "Du Toilets", and at that time the public toilets had begun to be managed by special personnel. The public toilet unearthed in the tomb of the Eastern Han Dynasty in Nanyang, China, the two toilet pits for men and women are side by side, one of them has a urine tank in front of the pit, and the other does not, and the shape is no different from the modern one.
