An historical overview of ancient China—from the Neolithic period (approx. 6,000–2000 BCE) to the end of the Han dynasty (220 CE)—this packet explores the rise of ancient Chinese civilization and how belief systems and cultural values are reflected in surviving examples of its material culture.
This 30-minute video tour of the Asian Art Museum’s collection galleries
highlights ceramics, jades, bronzes, paintings, and Buddhist arts
representing some six thousand years of Chinese culture and tradition. Filmed
in former museum location (prior to 2003) in Golden Gate Park.
