Gaoling Village / 高岭村
Gaoling Village / 高岭村 is the clay-source place in No.213 景德镇往事:千年“世界瓷都”的前世今生 that gives Kaolin / 高岭土 its international technical name. The episode treats this etymology as more reliable than the local story that “China” comes from Jingdezhen’s older name Changnan.
The village matters because clay from Gaoling helped Jingdezhen potters move beyond porcelain stone alone. In the source, that shift into Porcelain Stone-Clay Binary Formula / 瓷石瓷土二元配方 increased firing stability and made larger, more demanding forms possible inside the Jingdezhen Porcelain Production System / 景德镇瓷业生产系统.
