    The ancient Chinese civilization dates back over 4,000 years and is the oldest continuous civilization. During this long history, the Chinese developed important technologies and advanced human knowledge. A key period was the Qin Dynasty starting in 221 BC, when Qin Shihuangdi unified China and established central control. He standardized laws and administration across China. King Qin also took the title of emperor, helping establish China as an empire. Silk production and weaving were important industries during this time, as silk became a defining material of Chinese textiles.

    TIME PERIOD

    The Chinese civilization is the oldest civilization still in


    existence today, and extends back through history in an
    unbroken chain over nearly four thousand years. Throughout
    these thousands of years of history, the Chinese people have
    been instrumental in developing technologies and advancing
    the knowledge of mankind . The ancient China era was c.
    1600–221 BC. The imperial era was 221 BC – 1912 AD, from
    China's unification under Qin rule till the end of the Qing
    Dynasty, the Republic of China era from 1912, and the modern
    China era from 1949.
    THE QIN DYNASTY

    By 221 B.C., a man by the name of Qin had overthrown all remaining
    members of the Zhou Dynasty, and all other opposition, allowing him to
    place himself as the ruler of China. The Qin Dynasty would only last about
    11 years. Yet, during these short years, this dynasty would make changes
    that would affect the history of China for thousands of years. So influential
    was Qin, that the name of the nation, China, is a derivative of his name.

    In order to show his importance and power, Qin added a new name to his
    own. He began calling himself Qin Shihuangdi, which means Qin, the first
    emperor of China.
    Qin Shihuangdi again reorganized the affairs of China. Instead of a system
    of noblemen, Qin wanted everything to be under his direct authority and
    control. He established a strict set of written laws that were recognized
    throughout China, and set up military control in each region of China so
    that local noblemen could not rebel against the emperor.

    MATERIALS

    To understand ancient Chinese


    textiles, we first need to
    understand their material. Few
    textile cultures are as defined
    by the material as the Chinese.

    That's because Chinese textiles Making of textiles

    are famously made of silk. Silk


    is lightweight, strong, and
    naturally beautiful. It can be
    woven, spun, dyed, and worked
    in a variety of ways. Silk is

    silk worms.
