The Great Wall of China demarcates the agricultural civilization and the nomadic civilization in the Chinese history, and also protects the agricultural nationalities as a defense in the north. The course of the Great Wall is determined by a variety of factors, including the climate change, one of the external causes. The analysis of global climate change indicates that meteorological fluctuation resonate with the route of the Great Wall in different historical times.
