Description and Table of Contents
Description
A much welcomed general introduction, in English, presenting up-to-date material on Chinese archaeology and art, written by a number of leading Chinese archaeologists. The chapters present new material and ideas on debate and practice, theoretical and methodological approaches, the origins of the Chinese civilisation, ritual and sacrifice, social structures and belief systems. Includes a chapter on important discoveries between 1991 and 1995. Surprisingly few illustrations.
