The Discovery that Rewrote Chinese History

Sanxingdui and Jinsha hold some of the greatest archaeological mysteries in China. Who were the people that created these bronze masks, golden scepters, and jade artifacts? And why did their civilization vanish? In this episode, we explore Sanxingdui, Jinsha, and the Sichuan Museum, uncovering the secrets of the ancient Shu kingdom. From stunning bronze work to lost history, this journey into Sichuan’s past is one you won’t forget.
