Acupuncture: The History of Acupuncture in China - 0 views

  •  
    Acupuncture has a clearly recorded history of about 2,000 years, but some authorities claim that it has been practiced in China for some 4,000 years. The Chinese believe that the practice of acupuncture began during the Stone Age when stone knives or sharp edged tools, described by the character 'Bian', were used to puncture and drain abscesses. I found this website really helpful

Confucianism - ReligionFacts - 16 views

  •  
    Confucianism is a way of life taught by Confucius in the 6th-5th century BC. Sometimes viewed as a philosophy, sometimes as a religion, Confucianism is perhaps best understood as an all-encompassing humanism that neither denies nor slights Heaven. Confucianism has been followed by the Chinese for more than two millennia. (This site helped me with some of my Inquiry questions)

    The Great Wall of China was built by the ancient Chinese to keep out invaders from other parts of Asia. Emperor Shi Huangdi, Chinas's first Emperor, ordered that the building begin more than 2000 years ago. He wanted all the smaller walls that had been built earlier to be joined together to form one Great Wall. this website discusses the year, the emperor and how long it has been around for. this website is great for anyone reaserching about the Great Wall of China.

The Invention of Paper - 0 views

  •  
    The Invention of Paper Written communication has been the center of civilization for centuries. Most of our important records are on paper. Although writing has been around for a long time, paper hasn't. In fact, putting thoughts down in written form wasn't always easy or practical.

China - Gunpowder - 8 views

  •  
    These inventions impacted war in many ways, and one of them was the ground. Before cannons, there weren't any hole making weapons but when cannons came along the ground started getting big holes in it. When you fire a cannon ball and it hits the earth, it will explode, and when it explodes it will make a very big hole that will cause many things.

An Introduction to Confucianism - 4 views

  •  
    Confucianism has been the chief cultural influence of China for centuries. The teachings of Confucius were never intended to be a religion. It has no revelatory sacred writings, no priesthood, no doctrine of an afterlife, and frowned on asceticism and monasticism.

Chinese Religions - 0 views

  •  
    Bob Whyte surveys the many strands of religion in China. The article first appeared in SACU's China Now magazine. It has often been said that the Chinese are not deeply religious. It is true that they have shown a comparative indifference to metaphysical speculation; Chinese culture was perhaps the first to develop an intellectual scepticism concerning the gods.
