Moreover, these jade objects are not just ornaments, but also symbols of their identity and status. And walking on the street, everyone has jade hanging on their bodies, which is simply a "jade feast".
In addition to the "jade madness", the "foodies" in the Liangzhu culture period are also a beautiful landscape. their economic baseIt is mainly rice farming, but there are also ancillary economic activities such as livestock raising, fishing, hunting and gathering.
