Features: This book is based on the CCTV science exploration program "Tracing Jade." The "Exploring Jade Culture" science exploration activity, jointly organized by the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and CCTV, is China's first large-scale, comprehensive scientific investigation of the origin of the "Jade Road." From the perspective of world culture, the historical academia should give the Jade Road a significant place in history, so that future generations will know that in the vast desert, alongside the world-famous Silk Road, there is another equally renowned road that carried Western cultural exchanges, dating back even earlier—the Jade Road.
