Life in the City: An Anyang Neighborhood

This interactive experience explores daily life in the ancient city of Anyang, the final capital of China's Shang dynasty. Over the last two decades, archaeologists have begun to explore Anyang's urban landscape. Excavations on the south side of the city, near the modern neighborhood of Liujiazhuang, have revealed an impressive network of roads and canals, remains of a large pottery factory, foundations for a courtyard building, and numerous sacrifical burials and tombs.
