Open Class--PTW 1.27f
The two sites are virtually identical so this doesn't help in choosing a save file for the Open class. The only other piece of information is the minimap. Since the northern site is more central, I expect it will have more neighbors. The higher production of the capital will be needed more there then.
As mentioned by others, the treasure chests will be more valuable at the second, more corrupt site. I will, therefore, take the units at the southern site.
As far as using the chests, grabbing land is always the first priority so I'm planning to use them to help build settlers. Shields will be harder to come by than food so a granary is not as good.
A palace jump definitely sounds like a good idea. Setting up two good disperse cores and building to the modern era will be important for getting the ship. Trading will be crucial.
Research will start at max towards Pottery, then zero or min towards Republic.
Good luck to all!

Confucius himself had a simple moral and political teaching: to love others; to honor one's parents; to do what is right instead of what is of advantage; to practice "reciprocity," i.e. "don't do to others what you would not want yourself"; to rule by moral example (dé) instead of by force and violence; and so forth. Confucius thought that a ruler who had to resort to force had already failed as a ruler -- "Your job is to govern, not to kill" (Analects XII:19). [from http://www.friesian.com/confuci.htm]
