no, offense, man. you know, i had college in Wuhan and i do like the place and the people very much. but, i have to say out the serious doubt of the genus of the bronze sword in the pic 1. that should be categorized as Yue culture.

that's 越王勾践剑，discovered in jinzhou city, hubei province.
越王勾践剑通高55.7厘米，宽4.6厘米，柄长8.4厘米，重875克。1965年冬天，在湖北省荆州市附近的望山楚墓群中，出土了一把锋利无比的宝剑。专家通过对剑身八个鸟篆铭文的解读，证明此剑就是传说中的越王勾践剑。让人惊奇的是，这把青铜宝剑穿越了两千多年的历史长河，但剑身丝毫不见锈斑。它千年不锈的原因是什么呢？
