Abstract：The Paleo-Gaoliang River played an important role in the location-selection and development of Beijing City. Previous researchers did not come to an agreement on the definition for the name of Paleo-Gaoliang River. It is also rather unclear about the age and size of this river. Based on the field investigation for years and selection of several typical sections on the line of Paleo-Gaoliang River,by the method of 14C, OSL and thermoluminescence,as well as the method of geomorphology,archaeology and historical geography,the age of the paleochannel would be definite,which would recover the evolution and distribution character of the Paleo-Gaoliang River. Through the above analysis,it comes to the conclusions as follows: (1)It seems that the name of “Paleo-Gaoliang River”may be more suitable than “Sanhai River”,and the name of “Paleo-Gaoliang River” shows the paleochannel of Yongding River which passed Sanhai from Shijingshan to Yizhuang in the Middle-Late Holocene. (2)The upper limit age for the development of this river should be during 4000-5000 a BP, while the lower limit age should be from the end of Western Han Dynasty to the beginning of Eastern Han Dynasty. (3)The size of this river is smaller than that of Paleo-Qing River and Paleo-Lei River. (4)Paleo-Gaoliang River influenced the location-selection and relocation of the ancient Ji City,which was built on high ground between the Paleo-Gaoliang River and the Paleo-Lei River. Ancient Ji City located in the important position of Paleo-Gaoliang River.
