This book contains eleven articles in English and German which were presented to an international symposium in 2003. The papers discuss various aspects of the early history of the area now called Guangdong. They deal with material and textual evidence collected from Chinese sources. It is shown that Guangdong maintained strong relations with both the North and the maritime world and that, at the same time, it also maintained distinct cultural features of its own.From the table of contents (11 contributions):F.
