According to the traditional chronology based upon calculations by Liu Xin, the Xia ruled between 2205 BC and 1766 BC; however, according to the chronology based upon the Bamboo Annals, it is between 1989 BC and 1558 BC. The Xia Shang Zhou Chronology Project concluded with 2070 BC and 1600 BC. Although there are some scholars who have debated over whether the dynasty really existed, archaeological evidence points toward its existence. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xia_dynasty May 22 09, 8:41 PM
