Pictograms, through which earliest mankind endeavoured to communicate, achieved their richest profusion in China, and gave rise to the world s most complex-and, many would argue, most artistic-written language. Early Stone Age dwellers along the Yellow River left cryptic records with their images of men, dragons, deer, sun and moon, inscribed on bone and pottery. Symbolism still lies at the core of China s ancient heritage, in which certain animals, plants and inanimate objects have long been regarded as directly linked with particular human conditions, or seen to ordain the outcome of individual endeavours. This book surveys some of the best recognised examples - not least of which are the dozen animal signs that comprise the twelve-year cycle of the Chinese Zodiac.
