Ancient Chinese Art. This paper takes a look at Chinese ancient art, in particular the art and cultures of Longshan and Yangshao. This paper will compare their histories and specifically, the differences in pottery techniques and styles. The Neolithic period began in China about 12,000 BC and lasted until about 2,000 BC. However, good evidence of Neolithic settlements exists from only about 5,000 BC. It is defined by a spread of settled agricultural communities and by farming tools and other items excavated at this time. These included several items used in farming such as a shovel, hoe, knife, sickle and grinding tools. Pottery was also present during this time period and has provided many clues into the culture of the time.
