schema:abstract ""Bronzes are considered the most important vessels in recording a nation's history. The National Museum of China is famous for its collection of ancient Chinese bronzes. The bronze Houmuwu cauldron of the Shang Dynasty is the heaviest bronze vessel ever found in China, and is considered a national treasure. The bronze Dayu cauldron with a 29I-character inscription shows the magnificent atmosphere of the Zhou people, who placed great emphasis on a diversity of rituals and regulations. The square bronze 'four sheep' wine vessel, the plate made by Ji Zibai from the Guo State, the bronze wine container belonging to Marquis Yi of the Zeng State and Luan Shu's bronze wine container, and the bronze rhinoceros-shaped wine vessel with cloud patterns in gold and silver are not only reflections of ancient casting technology, but also the essence of the art of Chinese civilization, placing them among the nation's treasures. The bronze Zilong cauldron from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties is robust and majestic, and is a perfect match for the bronze cauldrons from Houmuwu and Dayu. The bronze Zhabo cauldron, the bronze Shishan plate, the bronze She kettle, and the bronze cauldron belonging to the King of Chu of the two Zhou Dynasties are rich in value for researchers, and are rare historical materials in scholarly circles."-- From foreword [pages v-vi]."@en
