Jade culture is a vital cultural gene of Chinese civilization. In the Liangzhu period, over five thousand years ago, a system of jade use had already emerged, marked by status and hierarchy through artifacts such as the cong (symbolizing divine power), the yue axe (symbolizing military and royal authority), as well as bi discs and jade headpieces. The ritual system embodied by these ceremonial jade artifacts inaugurated the Chinese tradition of rites embodied in material objects. Through an exploration of topics such as the role of jade artifacts in Chinese civilization, the distinctive characteristics of Liangzhu jade use, and the relationship between the Jade Age and the origins of Chinese civilization, this book illuminates the significant contributions of Liangzhu civilization to the development of Chinese civilization. 玉文化是中华文明的重要文化基因。在距今五千多年的良渚时代,已经形成以象征神权的玉琮、象征军权和王权的玉钺,以及玉璧、玉头饰等为载体,用以标志身份和等级的用玉体系。成组玉礼器体现的礼制,开启了中华文明器以藏礼的传统。 本书通过对玉器在中华文明中的地位、良渚用玉的典型性、玉器时代与中华文明起源等问题的探讨,展现了良渚文明对中华文明发展做出的重要贡献。
