Poster: Yellow Jade Horse

Source: en.qstheory.cn Updated: 2026-02-17

Look at this plump and adorable jade horse, which has galloped into the present day all the way from China's Warring States Period (475-221 BC)! Unearthed at the ancient ruins of the Lu State, the hometown of Confucius, it is currently housed in the Confucius Museum in Qufu City, Shandong Province. The horse stands poised on a rectangular base, with its head erect and ears pricked up, wide-eyed and gazing forward.
