The Search for Ancient China by Corinne Debaine-Francfort
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as China opened its doors, archaeologists introduced new field methods that led to important discoveries and the establishment of scientific research bodies. Now, the splendours of ancient China can be revealed: from the famous terracotta army to the lavish tomb of the Marquis of Dai from the Han dynasty.
Corinne Debaine-Francfort is a resreacher at the CNRS specialised in the archaeology on Central Asia. Paul Bahn is the author or editor of numerous books, including the standard introduction to cave art, Images of the Ice Age, as well as The First Artists (with Michel Lorblanchet).
