Ancient China
Date and Time: Friday, June 16, 2023
10 – 11 a.m.
Location: Online Zoom Course
Maximum Enrollment: 200 | Course Fee: $20
Participants are introduced to selected objects found in
ancient Chinese tombs as a way of surveying history from the
late Neolithic era (3000 BC) to the Tang Dynasty (618–907).
These objects reveal the contents of ancient tombs and shed
light on similar types of items used for daily life. In addition,
these tomb goods—ritual vessels, figurines, and musical
instruments—represent exemplary workmanship in jade,
bronze, and ceramics. Working methods with these materials
are also explored.
