Book Details

First Sentence

"Although only dimly perceived before the advent of modern archaeology, the Shang kingdom, which ruled over the North China Plain in the late second millennium B.C.E. (ca. 1700-ca. 1045 B.C.E.), is now recognized as the progenitor of many basic features of Chinese religious culture."
