Research Methodologies


Scientific Analysis

Materials testing, spectroscopy, dating techniques, and chemical composition studies


Historical Research

Examination of primary texts, archival documents, and historical records


Comparative Studies

Cross-cultural analysis and chronological style comparisons


Digital Reconstruction

3D modeling, virtual restoration, and archaeological visualization


JACAC publishes articles employing rigorous research methodologies that advance our understanding of ancient Chinese arts and crafts. Scientific analysis includes spectroscopic techniques, X-ray fluorescence, radiocarbon dating, and microscopic examination to determine material composition, age, and production techniques. Historical research studies contemporaneous texts, imperial records, and archaeological documentation to establish provenance and cultural context. Comparative studies examine stylistic evolution across regions and periods, as well as influences from neighboring cultures. Digital reconstruction utilizes cutting-edge technology to visualize artifacts in their original state, simulate production processes, and recreate historical contexts. These complementary approaches provide comprehensive insights into the creation, use, significance, and preservation of ancient Chinese artistic and craft traditions.
