UNITED NATIONS, June 10 (Xinhua) -- An exhibition highlighting China's ancient Shu civilization opened on Monday at the UN headquarters in New York, providing a rare international platform for a culture that flourished over three millennia ago.
Themed "Light of the Sun -- Ancient Shu Civilization and the World," the exhibition draws on artifacts and motifs from the renowned Sanxingdui and Jinsha archaeological sites in southwest China, which date back approximately 3,600 to 2,800 years.
The display marks the first time the ancient Shu civilization has been presented at the UN and serves as a featured event of the newly established International Day for Dialogue among Civilizations, observed annually on June 10.
