Description

Based on recent archaeological and textual sources, this book presents new insights on Quanzhou, an overseas trading port in Southeast Asia. The impact of the Song imperial clan and their local elites on the development of maritime trade and Quanzhou's position in the region are considered. The economic importance of metals, coins, paper money, and changes in the political economy are discussed. A qualitative and quantitative analysis of archaeological data and materials is provided, centering on the significance of commodities from China, their origins, distribution, and the use of foreign labor.
