It shows the golden age of early Chinese culture, crafts and science, a time of great prosperity during the Chinese Bronze Age. Discovered in 1899, Yinxu is one of the oldest and largest archeological sites in China and is one of the historical capitals of China and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
