Its centre is located near nowadays Hangzhou city and is considered one of the earliest urban centres in prehistoric China, called by archaeologists the Liangzhu Site Complex. Although it remains a mystery for many in the west, Liangzhu is well known in China for its fine jade crafting industry; its enormous, well-structured earthen compound and recently discovered hydraulic system; and its far-flung impact on contemporary and succeeding cultures. With six chapters contributed by frontline archaeologists, Liangzhu Culture contextualises Liangzhu in broad socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds and provides new, first-hand data to help explain the development and structure of this early urban centre. Among its many insights, the volume reveals how elites used jade as a means of acquiring social power, and how Liangzhu and its centre stand in comparison to other prehistoric urban centres in the world. This book, the first of its kind published in English language, will be a useful guide to students at all levels interested in material cultures and social structures in prehistoric China and beyond"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Situating the Liangzhu culture in late Neolithic China: an introduction -- The Liangzhu City: new discoveries and research -- Power and belief: reading the Liangzhu jade and society -- A controlled fine craft: jade production techniques in the Liangzhu Culture -- From the 'Songze Style' to the 'Liangzhu Mode' -- Shamanistic, historic and virtuous jade: continuity and change in early Chinese jade traditions. 650 0 $a Liangzhu culture. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2004005325 651 0 $a Yangtze River Delta (China) $x Antiquities. 651 0 $a Hangzhou Shi (China) $x Antiquities. 650 0 $a Jade art objects $z Yangtze River Delta $z Yangtze River Delta $x History. 650 0 $a Social archaeology $z Yangtze River Delta. $z Yangtze River Delta. 650 0 $a Urban archaeology $z Yangtze River Delta. $z Yangtze River Delta. 650 7 $a Urban archaeology. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1162367 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1162367 650 7 $a Social archaeology. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1122274 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1122274 650 7 $a Jade art objects. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/981069 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/981069 650 7 $a Antiquities. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/810745 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/810745 650 7 $a Liangzhu culture. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1201604 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1201604 651 7 $a China $z Yangtze River Delta. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1258218 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1258218 651 7 $a China $z Hangzhou Shi. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1212688 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1212688 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 $a Liu, Bin, $d 1961- $e editor. $4 http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2018131046 700 1 $a Qin, Ling, $d 1975- $e editor. $4 http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2018156781 700 1 $a Zhuang, Yijie, $e editor. $4 http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nb2017000893 776 08 $i Ebook version : $z 9781351365802 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317021241.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A8640EFE323411EC8B1165C359ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
