  • A Tricky Game: a Re-Evaluation of Liubo 六博 Based on Archaeological and Textual Evidence*
    A TRICKY GAME: A RE-EVALUATION OF LIUBO 六博 BASED ON ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND TEXTUAL EVIDENCE* ARMIN SELBITSCHKA 1 Introduction In the past, scholarship has barely acknowledged the entertaining qualities of the ancient Chinese board game liubo 六博. Instead, the main focus has been on its occult properties for close to a century.1 This is due to the idiosyncratic TLV pattern that adorns the surfaces of liubo game boards.2 Since the early 20th century, authors have disagreed on whether __________________________ * Work on this article has been facilitated by a short-term research grant of the “LMU-UCB Research in the Humanities” program at the University of California at Berkeley. I am grateful to Mark Csikszentmihalyi for his generous support and hospitality during four wonderful weeks at UC Berkeley in the spring of 2012. I am also indebted to Michael Loewe, Keith Knapp, Roel Sterckx, and the anonymous Oriens Extremus reviewer for their valuable comments on earlier drafts of this article. I am also grateful to Martin Hanke for his careful final editing.

  • “I Write Therefore I Am”: Scribes, Literacy, and Identity in Early China
    “I write therefore I am”: Scribes, Literacy, and Identity in Early China Armin Selbitschka NYU Shanghai [email protected] Accepted for publication in Harvard Journal of Asiatic Studies 78.2 (2018). In a recently published article on literacy and identity, Elizabeth Birr Moje and Alan Luke distinguish five “metaphors for identity in history and contemporary research.” More importantly, though, the authors reviewed a tremendous amount of sociological and social-psychological literature in order to demonstrate how scholarship has increasingly related different conceptions of identity and the self to literacy. Accordingly, “texts and the literate practices that accompany them not only reflect but may also produce the self. Moreover, some have also argued that texts can be used as tools for enacting identities in social settings.”1 In view of the fact that a significant number of Chinese individuals living during the fifth through first centuries BCE were buried with manuscripts, such arguments seem pertinent for early Chinese society as well. What does it say about the self-concept of a person when his or her ability to write and / or read assumed a prominent role in funerary rites? This is the main question this article is going to pursue. Research on literacy in the field of Early China studies has gained some momentum with the release of a volume edited by Li Feng and David Prager Branner,2 yet the issue of identity has so far not been raised in this context. This article will therefore first discuss evidence of literacy and the skill of writing that are found in Chinese literary and archaeological sources of the late pre- imperial and early imperial period.

  • Nanyue King Museum
    Nanyue King Museum [Introduction] – [Gold Seals ] – [Silverware ] – [Copperware ] – [Musical Instrument ] – [Weapons ] – [ Jade ware ] – [ Earthenware ] – [ Sacrificial Persons ] [Introduction] The Nanyue King Museum, formerly named Nanyue Tomb Museum, was set up at the site of the tomb of a Nanyue King, Zhao Mo by name, who styled himself “Emperor Wen ” and was the second king of the Nanyue Kingdom , being on the throne for 16 years in 137 – 122BC . The Nanyue Kingdom was a local state in South China in the period of China’s Western Han Dynasty . It lasted 93 years with 5 kings in succession and submitted to the Western Han in 111 BC . The tomb of Zhao Mo was discovered in 1983 ,20 meters under the Elephant Hill at Jiefangbei Road in Guangzhou . With an area of about 100 square meters. It is constructed with 750 blocks of red sandstones, with 7 chambers in all. This tomb is the most important Han Tomb so far discovered in South China – its size is the largest, the political and social status of its occupant is the highest and the number of historical relics unearthed is the greatest – and so is considered as one of the 5 major archaeological finds in modern China. Articles unearthed from the tomb, totaled over 1000 pieces or sets, fall mainly into 4categories: copperware, ironware, earthenware and jade ware. Among all the articles unearthed, the gold seal inscribed with the words “The Seal of Emperor Wen” is the most precious because it’s the first emperor’s seal so far discovered in China’s archaeological excavations. Now the tomb and the unearthed artifacts are all on display in the Nanyue King Museum.

    Art Around the Belly: Tracing the Cultural Significance and Artistic Value of Belt Hooks in Ancient China by Kara Kaifang Ma A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Kara Kaifang Ma 2014 ! Art Around the Belly: Tracing the Cultural Significance and Artistic Value of Belt Hooks in Ancient China Kara Kaifang Ma Master of Arts Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto 2014 Abstract The belt hook was used to fasten garments in ancient China long before the existence of belt buckles or plaques. Its use first appeared more than five thousand years ago and can be prevalently observed in paintings, on statuettes, and even on the famous Terracotta Army. Although it was such a common personal ornament, little has been written on this subject. My thesis will explore, through excavation data, coupled by my research on the extensive collection of belt hooks at the Royal Ontario Museum, how the examination of these ancient Chinese ornaments can not only reveal the status and wealth of its wearer, but also the cultural complexities and social advancements of that time. ! ! ! !ii Acknowledgments I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Chen Shen, my supervisor and mentor, who’s expertise and passion for his field has led me to pursue a career in East Asian Studies. Thank you for always pushing me to do better, the completion of my Master’s would not have been possible without your continuing support, guidance, and encouragement.

  • Power Animals and Symbols of Political Authority in Ancient Chinese Jades and Bronzes
    Securing the Harmony between the High and the Low: Power Animals and Symbols of Political Authority in Ancient Chinese Jades and Bronzes RUI OLIVEIRA LOPES introduction One of the issues that has given rise to lengthy discussions among art historians is that of the iconographic significance of Chinese Neolithic jade objects and the symbolic value the decorations on bronze vessels might have had during the Shang (c. 1600 –1045 b.c.) and Zhou (1045–256 b.c.) dynasties. Some historians propose that the representations of real and imaginary animals that often decorated bronze vessels bore no specific meaning. The basis of their argument is that there is no reference to them among the oracle bones of the Shang dynasty or any other contem- poraneous written source.1 They therefore suggest that these were simply decorative elements that had undergone a renovation of style in line with an updating of past ornamental designs, or through stylistic influence resulting from contact with other peoples from western and southern China ( Bagley 1993; Loehr 1953). Others, basing their arguments on the Chinese Classics and other documents of the Eastern Zhou and Han periods, perceive in the jades and bronzes representations of celestial beings who played key roles in communicating with ancestral spirits (Allan 1991, 1993; Chang 1981; Kesner 1991). The transfer of knowledge that determined the continuity of funerary practices, ritual procedures, artistic techniques, and the transmission of the meanings of iconographic representations was certainly subject to some change, but would have been kept in the collective memory and passed on from generation to generation until it was recorded in the most important documents regarding the insti- tutions of Chinese culture.

  • A Pair of Steppe Earrings
    One A Pair of Steppe Earrings The earrings shown in plate 1a were buried with a woman who died in the second century BC.1 She was a member of the elite in one of the cultures possibly belonging to the Xiongnu political alliance, which, at its greatest extent, controlled a large empire to the north of China.2 Made of worked gold with inlays of semiprecious stones and oval pieces of openwork carved jade, the earrings showcase the arts and aesthetics of the many cul- tures of the empires of both the Xiongnu and the Chinese. The relationship between the Xiongnu and the Chinese, long neighbors in East Asia, is cen- tral to understanding the early history of the eastern Silk Road but is often simply characterized as one of conflict. These earrings tell a more complex story—of diplomatic endeavors, trade, intermarriages, and technical and cul- tural dialogues. They come from a time when these cultures were renegotiat- ing their interrelationships and territories. That process was one of the cata- lysts for the expansion of long-distance Eurasian trade, the Silk Road. The earrings also reflect the story of the encounter between the peoples—and other objects or “things”—along the ecological boundary of Inner and Outer Eurasia, stretching across the length of the Silk Road.3 But we must not for- For places mentioned in this chapter see Map 2 in the color maps insert. 1.
