This book provides the reader with the latest archaeological
discoveries of Liangzhu culture for its sophisticated jade
artifacts. The structure and contents systematically present that
large-scale ritual vessels such as jade cong and bi were originally
regarded as the embodiment of Zhou and Han dynasties have been
proved as burial accessories of Liangzhu culture. This confirmation
urges archaeologists to renew an earlier interpretation of societal
development dimension in Liangzhu culture. The book discussed the
compatibilities between types and function of Liangzhu jades
vividly displayed. It provides archaeological researchers and
students by gaining an in-depth perspective of aesthetic
appreciation of jade while understanding of the spiritual world of
people in Liangzhu as well as the transition between the functions
of power and belief.
