Talk:Jade burial suit

Untitled

Can someone actually explain what the point was of these suits? was it because they were rich enough to afford it, or was it meant to provide some eternal protection, etc? Hellfire83 09:52, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

The ancient Chinese believed that jade had magical properties; supposedly, jade could prevent the body from decaying, hence the jade suits.--Confuzion 00:08, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

I've added the information into the article as I think its pretty important. Hellfire83 13:08, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Dried dragon sperm?

Is it correct the Chinese believed jade to be dried dragon sperm? Drutt 12:59, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

This Is For An ANTH 420 Class for College Credit, But I Made Some Changes

I made some changes regarding the layout of the article. The article before was organized weird and didn't feel good to read. I also removed some sentence or changed them slightly because they were opinionated or didn't proved any real information. I separated the History section into Site History and Cultural History because I felt that having both in one section seemed too much. DinoTron02 (talk) 18:57, 6 May 2023 (UTC)
