Dingzhou: the Story of an Unfortunate Tomb
DINGZHOU: THE STORY OF AN UNFORTUNATE TOMB Paul van Els, Leiden University Abstract In 1973, Chinese archaeologists excavated a tomb of considerable dimensions near Dingzhou. This tomb, which dates to the Former Han dynasty, yielded a rich array of funerary furnishings, including jadeware, goldware, bronzeware, lacquerware and a large cache of inscribed bamboo strips, with significant potential for study. Sadly, though, the tomb and its contents were struck by several disastrous events (robbery, fire, earthquake). These disasters severely affected the quantity and quality of the find and may have tempered scholarly enthusiasm for Dingzhou, which remains little-known to date. This paper, the first English-language specialized study of the topic, provides an overall account of the Dingzhou discovery; it draws attention to fundamental issues regarding the tomb (e.g. its date) and the manuscripts (e.g. their transcription); and it explores the significance of the tomb and its contents, and their potential importance for the study of early imperial Chinese history, philosophy, literature and culture. Introductory Remarks In 1973, a team of Chinese archaeologists excavated a Former Han dynasty tomb near Dingzhou ᅮᎲ in Hebei Province ⊇࣫ⳕ.1 In eight months of excavation, from May to December, the team revealed a tomb of considerable dimensions and brought to light a rich array of funerary furnishings, including several manu- scripts, with significant potential for the study of early imperial Chinese history, philosophy, literature and culture. Sadly, the discovery did not achieve its full potential. In the three decades that have passed since, studies of the Dingzhou find have come to influence our understanding of a few philosophical texts (e.g. -
49232-001: Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Air Quality Improvement Program
Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei Air Quality Improvement–Hebei Policy Reforms Program (RRP PRC 49232) SECTOR ASSESSMENT: ENVIRONMENT (AIR POLLUTION) Sector Road Map A. Sector Performance, Problems, and Opportunities 1. Air pollution problems in the PRC. Decades of unsustainable economic growth in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) have resulted in severe degradation of the air, water and soil quality throughout the country. In 2014, 74 of PRC’s prefecture-level and higher level cities recorded annual concentrations of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exceeding the national standard of 35 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m3) by 83%, with 7 of the 10 most polluted cities in the PRC located in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region.1 High levels of air pollution are among the first environmental problems that the PRC’s leadership has addressed with an unprecedented scale of reforms and actions which include the first “Action Plan of Pollution Prevention and Control” (hereinafter CAAP) outlining targets to be achieved in 2013–2015 in key regions, a new vision for the PRC’s urbanization which emphasizes improved ecological environment in cities, and a new environmental protection law unleashing long-needed reforms in the government performance assessment system. 2. Air quality and emissions in Hebei Province. Hebei province (Hebei) surrounds Beijing and Tianjin Municipalities, bordering Bohai bay to the east. Despite its advantageous geographical position, Hebei’s resources driven and heavy industry based economy has made the province lag behind other coastal provinces like Jiansgu and Zhejiang in terms of gross domestic product (GDP) and overall economic performance. In 2014, Hebei’s GDP totaled CNY2.94 trillion with a per capita GDP of CNY39,846. -
An Analysis of Spatio-Temporal Urbanization Patterns in Northwest China
land Article An Analysis of Spatio-Temporal Urbanization Patterns in Northwest China Haifen Lei 1,2, Jennifer Koch 2 and Hui Shi 1,* 1 School of Environmental and Municipal Engineering, Xi’an University of Architecture and Technology, Xi’an 710055, China; [email protected] 2 Department of Geography and Environmental Sustainability, The University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK 73019, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 6 September 2020; Accepted: 19 October 2020; Published: 27 October 2020 Abstract: Chinese metropolitan areas have been experiencing urbanization over the past decades, impacting biodiversity, carbon emissions, urban heat islands, and food security. Yet, systematic research on spatio-temporal urbanization patterns and drivers along the urban–rural gradient is rarely reported for northwest China. Here, we use land-use data from 1980 to 2015 to explore land-use change, urbanization intensity, and drivers in northwest China. Our results display direct and indirect effects of urban expansion on farmland loss, but also spatio-temporal heterogeneity in the urbanization patterns. While the earlier years were dominated by infill and land conversion close to city centers, the later years displayed sprawling urbanization following the constraints of terrain and administrative boundaries at the cost of farmland. Our regression analysis of spatial variables found a strong relationship with urban planning factors. The spatial analysis of urbanization patterns revealed indirect land-use change on former farmland. Furthermore, we found that regional geography and historic sites considerably influenced land conversion. Overall, our findings indicate the need for sustainable planning strategies that synthesize approaches to farmland and historic site protection and consideration of regionally specific landscape characteristics. -
Internal Ex-Post Evaluation for Technical Cooperation Project
Internal Ex-Post Evaluation for Technical Cooperation Project conducted by China Office: January, 2019 Country Name Project for Capacity Development on Mental Health Services for Reconstruction Support of People's Republic of China Sichuan Earthquake I. Project Outline In the disaster-affected area hit by the Sichuan Earthquake on May 12, 2008, reconstruction works were steadily being implemented with focus on infrastructure development. Programs on mental health and psychosocial support for those affected were also started right after the Earthquake by various governmental agencies and other organizations in and out of China. However, it was said that the average incidence rate of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the quake-affected area was estimated as more than 10% (at the time of ex-ante evaluation) and cases of secondary damage including suicide were continuously reported. This indicated that there had still been Background urgent needs of the metal health and psychological support. What still remained as challenges were: how to cope with the lack of mental health care workers, how to ensure the quality of care program, how to secure the sustainability of care provision system, and what to do with the lack of comprehensive coordination and management. It was confirmed that these challenges were aggravated over the time. It was also pointed out that the self-care of mental health care workers should be given full consideration as it was often the case that they themselves were the disaster victims. In the disaster-affected area hit by the Sichuan Earthquake (Sichuan Province, Gansu Province, and Shaanxi Province), the project aims to establish the appropriate and sustainable community-based psychosocial support system(1) through human resource development of mental health care workers in multi-sectoral areas (education, psychology, social work and medicine) as well as strengthening of collaboration and cooperation among sectors with focus on affected people, thereby having the concept of established support system well accepted in those project areas. -
Inscriptional Records of the Western Zhou
INSCRIPTIONAL RECORDS OF THE WESTERN ZHOU Robert Eno Fall 2012 Note to Readers The translations in these pages cannot be considered scholarly. They were originally prepared in early 1988, under stringent time pressures, specifically for teaching use that term. Although I modified them sporadically between that time and 2012, my final year of teaching, their purpose as course materials, used in a week-long classroom exercise for undergraduate students in an early China history survey, did not warrant the type of robust academic apparatus that a scholarly edition would have required. Since no broad anthology of translations of bronze inscriptions was generally available, I have, since the late 1990s, made updated versions of this resource available online for use by teachers and students generally. As freely available materials, they may still be of use. However, as specialists have been aware all along, there are many imperfections in these translations, and I want to make sure that readers are aware that there is now a scholarly alternative, published last month: A Source Book of Ancient Chinese Bronze Inscriptions, edited by Constance Cook and Paul Goldin (Berkeley: Society for the Study of Early China, 2016). The “Source Book” includes translations of over one hundred inscriptions, prepared by ten contributors. I have chosen not to revise the materials here in light of this new resource, even in the case of a few items in the “Source Book” that were contributed by me, because a piecemeal revision seemed unhelpful, and I am now too distant from research on Western Zhou bronzes to undertake a more extensive one. -
Originally, the Descendants of Hua Xia Were Not the Descendants of Yan Huang
E-Leader Brno 2019 Originally, the Descendants of Hua Xia were not the Descendants of Yan Huang Soleilmavis Liu, Activist Peacepink, Yantai, Shandong, China Many Chinese people claimed that they are descendants of Yan Huang, while claiming that they are descendants of Hua Xia. (Yan refers to Yan Di, Huang refers to Huang Di and Xia refers to the Xia Dynasty). Are these true or false? We will find out from Shanhaijing ’s records and modern archaeological discoveries. Abstract Shanhaijing (Classic of Mountains and Seas ) records many ancient groups of people in Neolithic China. The five biggest were: Yan Di, Huang Di, Zhuan Xu, Di Jun and Shao Hao. These were not only the names of groups, but also the names of individuals, who were regarded by many groups as common male ancestors. These groups first lived in the Pamirs Plateau, soon gathered in the north of the Tibetan Plateau and west of the Qinghai Lake and learned from each other advanced sciences and technologies, later spread out to other places of China and built their unique ancient cultures during the Neolithic Age. The Yan Di’s offspring spread out to the west of the Taklamakan Desert;The Huang Di’s offspring spread out to the north of the Chishui River, Tianshan Mountains and further northern and northeastern areas;The Di Jun’s and Shao Hao’s offspring spread out to the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, where the Di Jun’s offspring lived in the west of the Shao Hao’s territories, which were near the sea or in the Shandong Peninsula.Modern archaeological discoveries have revealed the authenticity of Shanhaijing ’s records. -

This study analyzed the industrialization development of Shandong peninsula city group and every city with the method of AHP. The conclusion indicted that the industrialization stage of Shandong peninsula city group is the advanced stage of industrial implementation phase, while the industrialization stage of Shandong province is the primary stage of industrial implementation phase. Jinan and Qingdao have been after industrialization stage, while Zibo, Dongying, Yantai and Weihai have been the advanced stage of industrial implementation phase, and Weifang and Rizhao have been the primary stage of industrial implementation phase. 1 INTRODUCTION Industrialization is defined to be a process that with the continuous development of modern industry, especially the development of manufacturing, the proportion of industrial value accounted for gross domestic product (GDP) keep increasing, and the industry have developed to be the pillar of the economy. World industrialization originated British industrial revolution in the 18th century. Industrialization process with characteristics of mechanized production changed mode of production and way of life, transferring labor, capital and other factors of production from countryside to city, driving the progress of the society. -
