Book Synopsis Solving the Mysteries of Hongshan Dragons and Hooked Cloud Shape Ornaments by : J.G. Cheock
Book excerpt: What purpose did the Neolithic Hongshan Culture have for their iconic artifacts called the Pig Dragon, the C Dragon, and the Hooked Cloud Shape Ornaments? Why would they invest precious nephrite jade material and man hours to produce them? Seeking answers to these questions, this paper traces the path of their possible dispersion, marked by their distinctive stone tools.
