Lectures give structure to archaeological finds

China Daily  

Ancient chime bells on display at the Chinese Archaeological Museum in Beijing, as part of an exhibition on the origins of Chinese civilization. A lecture series hosted by Chinese Archaeological Museum has offered a unique window into major discoveries and the latest research on the origins and early development of Chinese civilization. A warm welcome to everyone visiting the Chinese Archaeological Museum," museum director Liu Guoxiang told the attendees of a lecture on Liangzhu culture on Dec 21. The museum's "Tracing the Origins of Chinese Civilization" lecture series began in June 2024, featuring distinguished experts who were invited to speak every Saturday on the third floor of the museum. Concerning how Liangzhu culture came to an end and how its iconic yucong spread across China, Wang explains that environmental research suggests frequent flooding in the late Liangzhu period may have disrupted rice cultivation, leading to population migration to surrounding areas.
