Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates a lesser-studied form of ancient Chinese currency: model-insect money. These bronze castings, shaped like cicada and beetle larvae and adults, provide a unique glimpse into the evolution of Chinese currency and the cultural significance of insects in ancient China. The author traces the development of this currency from its origins in barter to its eventual use as a standardized medium of exchange. Along the way, the book explores the role of insects in Chinese mythology, art, and literature, shedding light on the deep connection between nature and society in ancient China. Ultimately, this book offers a valuable contribution to the study of Chinese numismatics and provides new insights into the cultural and economic history of ancient China. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
