Supplied note: "'Treasures from a Lost Civilization: Ancient Chinese Art
from Sichuan' - In a major collaboration between the State of Washington
and the People's Republic of China, the Seattle Art Museum presents an
exhibition that features a stunning archaeological discovery of a lost
world. These works give voice to ancient China, but they present more
questions than they answer. This web site is a virtual way for visitors to
explore the questions online and post their own theories."

Description: This site includes a catalogue of artefacts, a video of
excavation at Sanxingdui, interviews with archaeologists and online
discussion groups on a series of related topics.

Site contents: Artefacts from Sanxingdui, Zhou and Han sites in Sichuan
province.
