gunpowder, the decimal system, the waterwheel, the sundial, astronomy,
porcelain china, lacquer paint, pottery wheel, fireworks, paper money,
compass, seismograph, tangrams, medicines, dominoes, jump rope,
kites, tea ceremony, folding umbrella, ink, calligraphy, animal harness,
playing cards, printing, abacus, wallpaper, the crossbow, ice cream, and
