A few years ago a Chinese city wall was pulled down. The stone carvings in the rubble, which bear crosses and angels, have now been examined.
John Foster, Professor of Ecclesiastical History in the University of Glasgow, shows how these exciting discoveries give clues concerning Christianity in China 600 years ago and are a direct link with the famous travels of Marco Polo.
