Subject:neolithic natural glass / jade sculpture from China
Posted By: Emilia Mon, Oct 19, 2020 IP: 2a02:a31c:35f:4300:2

Hi everybody!
I am looking for accessible and acclaimed sources of knowledge about neolithic sculptures from the chinese land. I see a lot of people collecting those sculptures but it's harder for me to find any scientific articles, catalogues or books that could provide me with proper basis for writing an essay for my seminary class (I study sinology in Warsaw). I think they are just amazing, especially natural glass and jade ones, but at this point I am not even able to stress the difference between the sculpture of Longshan, Hongshan, Yangshao... I need basically anything that will get me started. There are many passionate people on this forum, so I really hope you might help me!
Thanks :)

Hi Emilia,
One book I can highly recommend is the following :
Chinese jade from the Neolithic to the Qing by Jessica Rawson.
