Item Details
Description
The Dian Kingdom (滇國) was an ancient kingdom established by the Dian people, an ancient group of indigenous non-Chinese metalworking tribes that inhabited around the Dian Lake plateau of central northern Yunnan, China from the late Spring and Autumn period until the Eastern Han dynasty. The Dian were gradually displaced and assimilated into Han Chinese culture as the Han dynasty expanded towards what is now Yunnan. The Han annexation of the Dian Kingdom in 109 BC eventually led to the establishment of the Yizhou commandery.
