Ancient Chinese artifact text recognition is fundamental to heritage digitization, and benchmarks for ancient texts are essential for evaluating current model capabilities. However, existing benchmarks suffer from ''fragmentation'', manifested in limited temporal coverage, limited medium diversity, and incomplete script types. Therefore, we present Ancient-Bench, a comprehensive benchmark of 2,700 images for ancient Chinese artifact text recognition, featuring three dimensions: Multi-millennial (spanning 3,000 years of character evolution), Multi-medium (covering nine artifact categories), and
