Amazing National Treasures: Life of the Ancients (English Edition) – 16 Questions That Open Daily Life in Ancient China

What Did People Use for Hunting? What Were Those Pointed-Bottomed Bottles For? Did Bronze Wine Vessels Actually Hold Wine? — Real Artifacts, Clear Answers, for Young Readers
This book doesn‘t tell you the history of ancient China from beginning to end. It asks you 16 questions—and then answers each one through a real artifact. What did people use for hunting before there were metal tools? What were those narrow-mouthed, pointed-bottom bottles actually for? Did bronze wine vessels really hold wine, or something else? What did a “refrigerator” look like two thousand years ago? Did Tang dynasty nobles play the same sports we do? Each question opens a door into how ordinary people lived—what they ate, wore, used, and enjoyed—from the Stone Age to the Tang. The objects come from museums across China, and the pictures show you what they really look like. If you want young readers to discover ancient Chinese life through questions and real artifacts—rather than a textbook or a plain picture book—this is it.
