Museum treasure 11~Painted Pottery Dou-saucer,1.Shandong Museum, China #253075759
Description
The octagonal star shaped painted pottery beans collected by Shandong Museum belong to the pottery relics of the Dawenkou Culture period of the Neolithic Age in ancient China, dating back to about 5000 years. This painted pottery bean embodies the high level of painted pottery art of Dawenkou Culture in terms of pattern composition and painting. It is an extremely valuable primitive art treasure. The octagonal star pattern on the pottery beans can better show the original charm of the pottery beans. It is either a star or the symbolization of some conceptual form, which makes people puzzled but linger in their minds. Painted pottery is an important specimen for us to study the history, culture, art and economy of ancient society. Octagonal star pattern, like many ancient mysteries, needs further interpretation.
