Chinese knotting, also known as zhongguo jie (Chinese: 中國結; pinyin: Zhōngguó jié), is a Chinese folk art with ties to Buddhism and Taoism.   A Chinese knot is made from a single length of cord that is woven into different shapes, with each shape having a symbolic meaning.  Archaeological studies indicate that the art of tying knots dates back to prehistoric times.  Discoveries include 100,000-year-old bone needles used for sewing and bodkins used to untie knots.   Due to the delicate nature of the medium, little evidence of prehistoric Chinese knotting exists today.  #Chineseknotting #china #chinese #knotting #tradition #Chinesetraditionalculture #中国结 Chinese Knotting, Tying Knots, Chinese Folk Art, Chinese Knot, Tie Knots, 100 000, Different Shapes, Buddhism, Folk Art
