The Chinese believe they are descendants of the Xia people—why is this mythology important to national identity? How does the unification process ensure the strength of a nation as large as China then and now?

Address what makes Erlitou such a significant site for archeologists and historians. Discuss the importance of society transitioning from hunter-gathering to agrarian.
