This week's episode focuses on the origins of the Yangshao culture. We go over its discovery in the 1920s and early theories it gave rise too. How those changed over time after the discovery of its earliest period, the Banpo phase and its type site. We talk about their homes, pottery, crafts, burial practices, social organization, lifestyles, and their spread east and west along the Wei River Valley. We also cover the theories that they had a proto writing system and that they were speakers of Sino-Tibetan.
