- Abstract:
- The copper mine in Zhongtiao mountain of Hedong was largely mined in Han dynasty, and on the basis of this, Hedong’s bronze casting flourished. The products of bronze were provided for not only locality but also Guanzhong and Hebei, which were favored by official departments and nobility. In the copper industrial chain of Han dynasty, Hedong mainly casted bronzes for daily life, and undertook responsibility of mining and smelting, providing the raw material to the production of cooper weapon in Henei and Henan. The phenomenon that Hedong took a significant position in bronze culture of Han dynasty is of historical inevitability. Firstly, it benefited from long-term mining in Pre-Qin period. Secondly, it benefited from introducing new technology of smelting copper mine in Eastern Zhou period.
