不断裂的文明史：对中国国家认同的五千年考古学解读

This book presents an archaeological interpretation of the history of Chinese civilization. Tracing back from recent history to the distant past, it explores the breadth of Chinese civilization. With archaeological remains and cultural relics as starting points and the cultural dimension from material perspectives, it presents a panoramic view of China’s civilizational continuity, together with its ideological and cultural characteristics. Featuring a wealth of illustrations (including photos of cultural relics and sites, archaeological surveys, etc.) and texts written in easy-to-understand language, it offers an engaging read without sacrificing academic quality. The main components of “civilization” are addressed: capital archaeology, mausoleum archaeology, ritual wares and architecture archaeology, as well as written language. The book offers a unique resource for archaeology majors and scholars, as well as general readers who are interested in Chinese archaeology and history.
