questions below.

The Great Wall of China

Walls and wall building have played a very

important role in Chinese culture. These people,

from the dim mists of prehistory have been wall-

conscious; from the Neolithic period – when

ramparts of pounded earth were used - to the

Communist Revolution, walls were an essential

part of any village. Not only towns and villages;

the houses and the temples within them were

somehow walled, and the houses also had no

windows overlooking the street, thus giving the

feeling of wandering around a huge maze. The

name for “city” in Chinese (ch’eng) means wall,

and over these walled cities, villages, houses and

temples presides the god of walls and mounts,

whose duties were, and still are, to protect and be

responsible for the welfare of the inhabitants.

Thus a great and extremely laborious task such as

constructing a wall, which was supposed to run

throughout the country, must not have seemed

such an absurdity.

However, it is indeed a common mistake to

perceive the Great Wall as a single architectural

structure, and it would also be erroneous to

assume that it was built during a single dynasty.

For the building of the wall spanned the various

dynasties, and each of these dynasties somehow

contributed to the refurbishing and the

construction of a wall, whose foundations had

been laid many centuries ago. It was during the

fourth and third century B.C. that each warring

state started building walls to protect their

kingdoms, both against one another and against

the northern nomads. Especially three of these

states: the Ch’in, the Chao and the Yen,

corresponding respectively to the modern

provinces of Shensi, Shanzi and Hopei, over and

above building walls that surrounded their

kingdoms, also laid the foundations on which

Ch’in Shih Huang Di would build his first

continuous Great Wall.

The role that the Great Wall played in the growth

of Chinese economy was an important one.

Throughout the centuries many settlements were

established along the new border. The garrison

troops were instructed to reclaim wasteland and to

plant crops on it, roads and canals were built, to

mention just a few of the works carried out. All

these undertakings greatly helped to increase the

country’s trade and cultural exchanges with many

remote areas and also with the southern, central

and western parts of Asia – the formation of the

Silk Route. Builders, garrisons, artisans, farmers

and peasants left behind a trail of objects,

including inscribed tablets, household articles,

and written work, which have become extremely

valuable archaeological evidence to the study of

defense institutions of the Great Wall and the

everyday life of these people who lived and died

along the wall.
