In China, such an animal as a turtle was treated with respect. It was considered a symbol of longevity and endurance.
The Chinese used animals for divination: they tried to read the future by the lines on the shell.
Figures of four animals, according to the philosophy of Feng Shui, should be kept in every house: a phoenix, a dragon, a unicorn and a turtle.
Chinese warriors, going on a campaign, carried banners with images of a dragon and a turtle.
