Produktbeschreibung
The history of Huaxia (Chinese: , a historical concept representing the Chinese nation and civilisation) is full of wars. Various weapons were developed that are suitable for ground combat with horse-drawn vehicles. The weapon Ge (Chinese: ) was already used before the Qin Dynasty (ca. 221-206 BC), and disappeared around 25 AD (at the end of Western Han Dynasty). This type of weapon has not been used in other regions of the world. In about the same period, a weapon commonly referred to as the weapon axe was used in the ancient wars outside Ancient China (also called the Middle Kingdom), such as in Mesopotamia (the area of the Tigris-Euphrates river system). However, this weapon axe is different from the weapon Ge, although there are some similarities. This book provides an in-depth study and analysis of the reasons for the historic use of this rather unique weapon Ge, of its development in Ancient China, and of its influence on both military and civil culture. It may help both Eastern and Western people to better understand Chinese cultural development and its military history.
