520 _a"This book sets out the history of the city of Beijing, charting the course of its development from its early roots before 2000 B.C.E. to its contemporary position as capital of the People's Republic of China. It outlines the establishment of the earliest cities on or near the modern site in the years before 1000 B.C.E., its status as a regional centre from the Zhou to the Tang dynasties, and its emergence - for the first time - as capital of the whole of China after the Mongol conquest, when it was partly destroyed and subsequently rebuilt as the 'Great Capital' of Khubilai Khan.
