From animal sacrifices to unearthed jade sets, how ancient Chinese emperors paid tribute to Heaven

Описание: Baoji City, 170 kilometers west of Xi’an, the hometown of terracotta warriors in NW China’s Shaanxi, boasts an 8,000-year history of civilization.

Both He Zun, or a ritual wine container named “He”, a symbol of the civilization of the Zhou and Qin Dynasties (1046 BC - 206 BC), and the Xizhou Dynasty Bronze Ware, renowned for being the first plate in China, were unearthed here.

And in 2020, a site that had hosted sacrificial ceremonies for 600 years finally came to light thanks to the discovery of a jade human figurine.
