Hello Terry & Will Thanks for confirming my doubts about the phoenix. Although I had my suspicions I am also disappointed as I had travelled 100s of km to Anyang to visit the Yinxu Ruins. Yin is the last capital of Shang Dynasty and Yinxu the excavated ruins. The phoenix I show is actually on display in the tomb of Fu Hao. Just hope the tomb is not a hoax too ! I did not see any sign in the display case to say that items on display are replicas but must add that my understanding of Chinese is not that good. I will post pictures of the whole display which include jade dove, deer, tiger, hairpin, beads, etc. Sallie All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users |
