Molding Historic Rock Carving

Three Gorges Dam Yangtze River, China | 2001

A Chinese Archaeology institute invited RCI to China to take molds of a poem carved into the rock about 300 years ago. The carving was located in the area that was to be flooded by the Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze river. RCI was the only international organization included in the massive undertaking to preserve ancient artifacts found in the cradle of Chinese civilization.
