The "giant of the East" There is no parallel in human history for the bronze-making culture that flourished in China over 3,000 years ago. Particularly noteworthy are the bronzes that have been unearthed at Anyang in the Yellow River basin. The style and manufacturing techniques of Shang bronzes spread far and wide--to modern-day Shandong in the east, Shanxi and Shaanxi in the west, Liaoning in the north, and Guangdong in the south.
三千多年前，中國的青銅文明在世界歷史中獨佔鰲頭，尤其是黃河流域的安陽殷墟出土文物，其製作技術及風格輻射廣遠，東到山東、西達晉陝，北到遼寧、南達廣東。
