Description

Explore one of the earliest urban centers in prehistoric China with this detailed study of the Liangzhu Culture. Spanning from 3,300 to 2,300 BC, this era represented the peak of prehistoric social and cultural development in the Yangtze Delta. Centered near present-day Hangzhou City, the Liangzhu civilization left behind a lasting impact on contemporary and succeeding cultures. This book provides an in-depth look at the archaeological ruins and the sophisticated achievements of this ancient society. Learn about the famous fine jade-crafting industry that defines the culture's artistry. The text also covers the construction of enormous, well-structured earthen palatial compounds and the recently discovered hydraulic system that supported this early urban center. Whether you are a student of Asian history or a reader interested in Neolithic China, this work offers a clear window into a civilization that remains a significant mystery in the West while being deeply recognized in China.
