Drawing on the large-scale archeological finds of recent decades, and relying upon visual, typological, inscriptional, and technological analysis, the papers in this symposium look to provide updated information for Chinese archaic bronzes in the Minneapolis Institute of Art (Mia) and other US collections. By discussing the ritual, political, and social aspects of these bronze objects, the fresh studies will provide a unique window into ancient Chinese history and culture of the Bronze Age.
