English summary on page 66 as follows: in recent years, some bronze articles had been found in Yunnan and its vicinity in Southwest China. Three groups were discovered: 1. Tien Lake group--typical was Shih-Chai-shan, Li-Chia-Shan burials...around Tien Lake 2.Erh Lake group--with Tapona and Wanchiapa sepulchres around Erh Lake 3. Szechwan group - with bronze items bearing the name of Pa-Shu bronze, most striking were pirogue coffins found at Tung Sun Pa and Pao Luon Yuan. Generally speaking, Southwest China's bronze shows much relevance with Dong Son bronze in North Vietnam. Some artefacts wwith Dongsonian style such as drums were also found. But Chinese artiles got their characteristics: they carry artistic traits of the animals in the meadows. Through them, one can see a close relationship with Dongsonian bronze items.
