Nancy Hope, from the University of Kansas, returns to Lincoln to lead us on an exploration of ancient China’s three most notable achievements without leaving Lincoln. We’ll take a close look at the famous Terracotta Army of 8,000 life-sized statues buried to protect China’s first emperor; the Great Wall of China, which could span the distance from Wichita to Washington, D.C., and the Grand Canal, the longest man-made waterway in the world, to learn what conditions made these feats possible, their reputation throughout the ages and the influence they have on China and the world today.
