Yangshao Culture 90 Years Anniversary
November 2011. Artists and musicians from ArtsNordica network participated at the 90 Years Celebration of the Yangshao Culture discovery in Henan province, China.
Artsnordica has for the first time been involved in a major event outside of Yunnan, in China. This time it was Henan Province which is China's largest province, with 100 million inhabitants. 1921 archaeological excavations were made here which showed that a major culture existed here before China became China, around 5000-7000 years ago. The excavation was led by a Swede, Johan Gunnar Andersson, and counts as the birth of modern archeology in China.
