| Descripción: | This paper discusses the pattern of Qijia jue production in the Western Zhou dynasty at the predynastic capital site of Zhouyuan, from the aspects of manufacturing technology and technological organisation. The Qijia workshop exemplifies the use of natural resources in the local environment, in an operation based on principles of production efficiency, from raw material procurement to final manufacture. The reconstruction of manufacturing technology shows that jue production did not require much technological investment or complicated facilities, and that it could have been carried out under a "holistic" organisation of technology, where each working group was responsible for the full range of manufacturing steps from preforming to final refining. |
