About this book

The Golden Age of Chinese Archaeology: Celebrated Discoveries from The People`s Republic of China by Yang, Xiaoneng. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780300081329.

Chinese archaeological discoveries of the last fifty years have transformed previous notions of the origins of Chinese civilization and art. This book presents an astonishing range of findings--more than 200 works of art in jade, stone, ivory, bone, pottery, bronze, lacquer, bamboo, gold, and silver from the period 5000 B.C. to 900 A.D.--that show how culture flowered not only in the Yellow River Valley but throughout ancient China. The book is 584 pages with 48 B&W + 372 color illustrations and the book size is 9 5/8 x 12 1/8.
