About the book >.>.> The Dianchi type bronze culture was distributed around Dianchi area today, fanning out to Lunan and Luxi in the east, Yuanjiang in the south, Anning and Lufeng in the west, and Qujing and Zhaotong in the north. This large expanse was once the domain of the Dian, an ancient kingdom built by ethnic tribes of the southwest that existed from the mid 5th century BC to the 1st century AD. It was a branch of the ancient Yue people and traditionally named as the Dian tribe. In the Western Han dynasty, during the reign of Emperor Wudi, the Dian kingdom was absorbed as a prefecture of the Han Empire.

Soft Cover. Condizione: New. First Edition. Catalogue of a magnificent collection of bronze age art from the ancient Dian culture, which thrived in what is now China's Yunnan Province, some some 2,500 years ago. Recent activities by Chinese archaeologists in this region have uncovered a wealth of artefacts, many of which have never previously been published. Objects, very distinct from the bronze age art of ancient central China, exhibit what appears to be a meeting of southeast Asia's so-called Donson Culture, the epicenter of the great bronze kettledrums of antiquity, with the lively and realistic animal art of the northern steppes. Scenes depicted in three dimensional bronze and gold sculpture range from images of daily home life -- weaving, sewing and entertainment -- to violent depictions of the hunt, and brutal warfare. Includes also objects of wood, lacquer, musical instruments and ornaments of jade and other precious stones -- thus providing the viewer with an comprehensive vision of life during those times. Essays and detailed descriptions of each object in bilingual Chinese and English. 207 pp., over 180 colour plates, 38 line drawings, map. A new/unread copy. Size: 30 x 23 cm.…
