The development of jade culture;

Chinese jade culture has a long history of 10 thousand years of germination and development. It also has infinite vitality. The emblem of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games is an outstanding work that combines the ancient jade cultural tradition with the humanistic value of the contemporary Olympic Games, and it is also a powerful witness to the ancient and young Chinese jade culture.

The identification of ancient jade is divided into information such as age, function, jade material, shape and decoration, inscription, name, value and price, among which the first item is the identification of age (year). According to insiders, time (age) identification can be divided into two categories: macro time (age) identification and micro time (age) identification.

The age ratio of macro-era identification can be regarded as the lowest scale, while the micro-era identification can only be regarded as the minimum scale, and the accurate micro-ratio can be implemented to the minimum scale of year, month and even day.

The macroscopic dating criteria based on "Ji" or "Ten Ji" can be divided into three stages: Shenyu-Wang Yu-Yumin. These three stages are the largest and longest cut-off level in the macro-chronological identification of ancient jade, and they are the basic concepts of the times that we must first grasp when identifying ancient jade.

Hetian jade is closely related to the occurrence and development of Chinese civilization and has a deep origin. According to the latest research by archaeologists in China, it is pointed out that there is a jade age between the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age in China, which is the origin of Chinese civilization.

As early as the Neolithic Age, the ancestors at the foot of Kunlun Mountain discovered Hetian jade, which was transported to the East and West as a treasure and a medium of friendship, forming the oldest transportation channel of Hetian jade in China, the predecessor of the Silk Road.
