On the basis of the retrospect of the excavation and the research of the Erlitou site at Yanshi in Henan and the Xia Culture, this paper explores the causes of dispute between Chinese and foreign scholars on the study of early states in China, in terms of epistemology, archaeological paradigms, utilization of historical records, reasoning procedure and monothetic versus ideographic methods. It is argued that there occur not only the differences of academic traditions, but also the methodological backwardness caused by lack of international exchange. This article argues that the study of early states in China urgently needs updated theory and method.
