I especially like the chimes mentioned in the book by Marquis Yi of Zeng. Its unearthing is really a great discovery in the history of Chinese music and world music. Moreover, the author tells these stories as if chatting with friends, very cordial. After reading this book, I feel that I have a deeper understanding of China's history and culture, and I also admire the efforts and dedication of those archaeologists even more.
