Ancient Monuments: Christmas and Malden Island – British & US Nuclear Tests (1957-1962)
Meanwhile, it would seem that the numerous stone temples, wells, tombs, living spaces, walled enclosures and even paved roads (leading into the sea) are a product of the spreading of Polynesian (Oceania) culture throughout the area – with between 100-200 individuals settling on the island after travelling in boats some three to four thousand miles! Competing theories include the idea that these structures were built by exploring Chinese people!

Ruins in Northwest China Confirmed as 3,000-Year-Old Settlement! (14.3.2023)
Copper ore leftovers, stove relics, and pottery were found in the northeast of the city. Archaeologists believed the venue had been used during the early to mid-Western Zhou Dynasty.
Dou Haifeng, vice dean of the School of Cultural Heritage at Northwest University, heading the excavation project, noted that the findings could provide valuable evidence for studies in the settlement layout, the composition of residents, and social change in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties.

China: Nation Steps Up Fight to Safeguard Cultural Relics! (7.8.2022)
The Cultural Revolution (1966-1976) is presented by the bias West as one giant wave of manic (physical) destruction throughout the entirety of China! This fits in well with the racialisation of the Chinese people – who are presented in Western media ‘as not quite human at all’! The ‘Cultural Revolution’ attacked one very important element of world imperialist domination – and that was the attitude of ‘bourgeois’ White dominance that lived on in China through elements of its institutions corrupted by the rhetoric of the right-wing ‘Nationalist’ government (defeated elements of which had invaded and took refuge on the island of Taiwan), and the survival of feudalistic and imperialistic tendencies! Yes, in some areas ‘old’ physical objects were attacked by over zealous youths (who mistook material objects for the ethereal ideas that produced them or that had become associated with them), but this was not everywhere, and neither was this behaviour continuous! The ‘Cultural Revolution’ possessed many progressive and positive elements that benefitted the people of China! Today, the ‘Cultural Revolution’ continuous with the preservation of of ancient artefacts as the racist bourgeois (and ‘imperialistic’) attitudes have been thoroughly defeated! There is nothing to fear from the material past and everything to learn!
