Eight Hundred Years of the Yan Kingdom
by Peng Hua
About This Novel
This book uses the "double evidence method" and combines handed down documents, unearthed documents and archaeological data to discuss the history and culture of the Yan Kingdom for more than 800 years (from the middle of the 11th century BC to 222 BC), and comprehensively reveals the various connotations of the "Yan Kingdom's history and culture". Vertically, the "archaeological culture" of the Yan land (before the Western Zhou Dynasty enfeoffed Yan) and the history of the Yan state itself (founding, development, prosperity, decline and destruction) are all described in detail; horizontally, the Yan state's economy, politics, ancient tribes and ancient countries, ideological culture, social life, and historical figures are all described and discussed in detail, making the Yan state two or three thousand years ago vividly appear on the page.
