“That Honan was the locus of manufacture for wares of the splashed black-glazed variety is suggested by the number of examples excavated in that province (for a reference to wares of this type excavated in Hsi-p’ing-hsien, Honan, see Sekai Tōji Zenshū, IX, 191; for a blue-glazed jar—similar in glaze and in the shape and disposition of its spots to the Palace Museum jar mentioned earlier—excavated at Pan-ch’iao, Mi-yang-hsien, Honan, see Wen Wu, 1954/9, Plate 59).”

Then there was a militiaman, Liu Hsiao-mo, of the Yangcheng brigade in Shahotien of Piyang county. He took a small boat and res- cued many people.”
