Few minor nicks and faint surface scratches. Weight: 59.1 gDimensions: 8.9 cmLongshan and Dawenkou, located in the Shandong province area, between the cultural sphere of Hongshan in the North and that of the Liangzhu to the South, were two late Neolithic cultures which used jade items, primarily as status symbols and emblems of power. Compared to their neighbors and antecedents, the Dawenkou and Longshan cultures made less use of jade, which was worked mostly as small ornaments, tablet-shaped axes or ritual blades. The jades of these cultures, such as the notched rings exemplified by the present lot, represent a development of earlier shapes.Notched rings form a category of their own and are still poorly understood, though a line of development of this peculiar form can be traced to small Hongshan culture ornaments. Over time, the indentations carved on these small jades gradually developed into pointed projections, usually three in number. The latest Neolithic examples show an increase in the size of the discs and the addition of small, regular notches carved on the sections of the border comprised between the projections. These notches are a recurring feature on jades crafted during the transition from the late Neolithic to the Bronze Age (c. 2200-1900).As noted by Filippo Salviati, these regular notches may represent a faint memory of the outline of the feathered headdress worn by the Liangzhu anthropomorphic figures and were carved on jades reserved for the elite members of these late Neolithic and early Bronze Age societies.
