7. Da Ke Ding, from Shanghai Museum

In the seventh episode, Da Ke Ding, a 2,000-year-old bronze tripod, is presented by Yiyang Qianxi, a member of the popular Chinese boy band, TF Boys. Unearthed from Fufeng county in Shaanxi province in the late 1800s, the cauldron dates back to the Western Zhou Dynasty (c. 11th century-771 BC), and weighs more than 200 kg. It is inscribed with 290 characters that document the merits and achievements of a royal chef named Ke.

Excavated around the same period, Da Ke Ding, with other two tripods, Da Yu Ding and Mao Gong Ding, used to be known as the "Three Treasures within the Four Seas" because of their sizes, inscriptions and the way they were crafted.
