Gargoyle has posted the U. Texas site.
Here is a book with lotsa maps, "The Atlas of Early Man," used copies through Amazon for as little as $7.43.

Ancient China - where civilization started. Maps and tables

The Tang Dynasty map is especially interesting, showing that early Turks were to the West, who took many ideas to western Asia and eventually to Europe.

(Most histories of 'civilization' ignore the importance and contributions of the Eastern civilizations. Also search for India prehistory, etc., and find out about its cultural history. Of course these sites only have the bare bones, but there is some scholarly material as well.)
