China’s early history before Qin Dynasty (starting from 221 B.C.) may be different from previously thought, said Chinese historians as they decode bamboo slips over 2,000 years old.
The bamboo slips were collected by alumni of China’s top Tsinghua University from overseas, and returned to China in 2008.
Preserved in water when returned, there are 2,388 pieces of bamboo slips, the longest one being 46 centimeters in length.
