It is worth remembering that the whole world is dependent on the empire, inventions and art are born in China.


Chinese history is so ancient, it merges with the legends.

Three Emperors mythical creators and inventors: carpenter, farmer, doctor etc...

Then another 5 establish China as it becomes in 9 kingdoms that gave birth to the first dynasty, which appears to have been a mystery authenticated recently and still subject to controversy


Xia Dynasty would have seen the development of metallurgy and hydrology (2000-1550 BC ..) and already a union of people in China into one entity and the development of culture which is reflected by many objects invaluable in Jade, Bronze and Turquoise.

Then comes the establishment of the Shang (1550-1045)

That‘s where I got the first traces of Chinese writing authenticated but some believe it would be very old,original in thought that it transmits:

Indeed, very simple

and then become  a system,accurate and very aesthetic ideogram which is accompanied by a search that lead to art prints and calligraphy, among others.

 


The Zhu (1045-256) and Qins (221-207), are the scene of the development of agriculture, trade, currency (standard silk), and the development of the Great Wall of China .

 


We know well the last two periods that I present here: the Han (202 BC-220 AD) are very famous and a period represented in ancient China, as we remember the countless pottery

found in silhouette in the royal tombs .

They are also leaders who promote the mathematical sciences.

And development of Arts and Culture China continues until the Ming (1368-1644), replacing the Yuans, more contemporary that everyone knows by its vessels and its cultures, which inspired so many accomplishments by our artisans Loan example of china, our arms with powder etc.



The list is long and the masterpieces are numerous, countless treasures, those belonging to the History of Antiquity and Man, those that reflect the past of a country that has never ceased to awaken.
