National Geographic Investigates: Ancient Civilizations
Ancient China

Archaeology Unlocks the Secrets of China's past. In 1974, farmers uncovered the terracotta army of China's first emperor, Qin Shi Huangdo. Satellite technology revealed about 8000 soliders at the tomb complex. Only 1000 have so far been excavated.
In 1976, archaeologists uncovered a Shang Dynasty tomb in the Henan province. They recovered artifacts bearing the name Fu Hao. Could this be the same person whose name is found on oracle bones unearthed elsewhere in China?
Bodies encased in suits of jade and a pristinely preserved mummy are among the other treasures from China's tombs that continue to provide us with clues to her rich complex past.
Ancient China includes an interview with Dr. Zhichun Jing, University of British Columbia, and working archaeologist at Anyang, the last capital of the Shang Dynasty.
