About the Item
Treasures of the Jin State. Gems From Excavations of Cemetery of Marquis of Jin in Shanxi Province by Shanxi Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau. Publisher Shanxi Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau 2002. 1st Ed hardcover no dust jacket as issued. The Jin Kingdom dates back roughly 3,000 years ago, but questions remain about the kingdom's emergence. It was not until the late 20th century, when Qucun village relics were discovered, that the place was called the birthplace of the Jin Kingdom. Construction of the museum, which is located on the site where the relics were found, began in August 2009. It covers an area of 14.66 hectares, is supported by an investment of 198 million yuan($31.8 million)and is divided into three exhibition halls that feature the history of the Jin State, a chronology of the unearthing of the relics and details about how the relics are protected. Archeologists began exploring the area in the 1950s when relics and graves related to the Jin Kingdom were discovered. Copper relics, burial accessories and sacrificial pits were discovered from the 1950s to the 1980s. In Chinese and English.
