Xi’an’s Tang Dynasty monuments are the most famous of all, and beyond that, the city is committed to recreating the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. Nowadays, in Xi’an, it is no longer an unattainable dream to travel back in time to the Tang Dynasty.

    FOOD FROM THE SEA: SALMON CYCLE 3-5 (LESSON 7-9) Elder Quote: “Salmon was put up in many ways: smoked or air-dried, and cut up in little pieces and stuffed in a seal or sea lion stomach which had been dried, it was also salted. There is a little fish that you find under the rocks, we ate them while hunting. You find a rock which you can turnover and you generally will find a fish under it. They would smoke and dry the salmon after it came up the streams to spawn, it is not fat and it had to stop eating. The bright salmon are fat molds and turns rancid. But the ones from the streams have lost most of the fat, you smoke or dry them they get hard as a board.” Bobby A. Stamp (Born in 1926 to a French Canadian father and Dorothy Vlasoff from Nuchek. He moved to Chenega at the age of seven where he lived a subsistence lifestyle and was taught cultural values and lore by the village Elders. He died in 2005.)

  • Supplied Through the Parthians) from the 1St Century BC, Even Though the Romans Thought Silk Was Obtained from Trees
    Chinese Silk in the Roman Empire Trade with the Roman Empire followed soon, confirmed by the Roman craze for Chinese silk (supplied through the Parthians) from the 1st century BC, even though the Romans thought silk was obtained from trees: The Seres (Chinese), are famous for the woolen substance obtained from their forests; after a soaking in water they comb off the white down of the leaves... So manifold is the labor employed, and so distant is the region of the globe drawn upon, to enable the Roman maiden to flaunt transparent clothing in public. -(Pliny the Elder (23- 79, The Natural History) The Senate issued, in vain, several edicts to prohibit the wearing of silk, on economic and moral grounds: the importation of Chinese silk caused a huge outflow of gold, and silk clothes were considered to be decadent and immoral: I can see clothes of silk, if materials that do not hide the body, nor even one's decency, can be called clothes... Wretched flocks of maids labour so that the adulteress may be visible through her thin dress, so that her husband has no more acquaintance than any outsider or foreigner with his wife's body. -(Seneca the Younger (c. 3 BCE- 65 CE, Declamations Vol. I) The Roman historian Florus also describes the visit of numerous envoys, included Seres (perhaps the Chinese), to the first Roman Emperor Augustus, who reigned between 27 BCE and 14 CE: Even the rest of the nations of the world which were not subject to the imperial sway were sensible of its grandeur, and looked with reverence to the Roman people, the great conqueror of nations.
