Yes, it certainly did. In fact, the current country called China is made up of pieces from encounters between the earliest identifiable Chinese (Han) people and other civilizations. For example, the "Great Wall" was built to protect China from the Mongol empire, but it didn't work and the Mongols promptly conquered much of China. These various ethnic groups are very visible in China today, and are a source of considerable concern to the Chinese leadership.

China is one of the oldest civilization. There is no doubt that there were stone age people in Ancient China. They started to move around looking for food and other needs.
All of the River Valley Civilizations (Ancient Egypt, Sumeria, the Indus River Valley Civilization, and Ancient China) were ABSOLUTE MONARCHIES. They were all ruled by kings (or kings by other names like "pharaohs" or "emperors") who exercised total and complete authority over their subjects. In Ancient Egypt and Ancient China, the monarch was also seen as a god.

The land in Ancient China was not to much different then it is now, and other civilizations looked up to the "Chinese" because at the time China was the first largest country in the world. Currently China is the fourth largest country.

Ancient China made many contributions to civilization. The study of math, fishing reels, mechanical clocks and many other things were discovered or invented by people in ancient China.
yes the Chinese were isolated from other civilizations.
Yes and no. China did invent daggers, but so did every other civilization that figured out how to sharpen a rock. If a civilization was able to utilize metal, it created daggers. The Far East, Middle East, Africa, Europe and (arguably) the Americas all invented daggers.
The people of the Harappan civilization were unique compared to those of most other ancient civilization. They were monotheistic, they traded with Mesopotamia, and mummified the dead.

The geography of Ancient China shaped the way the civilization and culture developed. The large land was isolated from much of the rest of the world by dry deserts to the north and west, the Pacific Ocean to the east, and impassable mountains to the south. This enabled the Chinese to develop independently from other world civilizations.
The Gobi desert and the Himalayas.
The discovery shows that China was not a civilization that is isolated from other humans.
