Hesitant about where the Zilong Ding was unearthed and who the owner is is a mystery, so there must be a lot of controversy about the Zilong Ding.

For example, its origin, until now, has not confirmed the origin of Zilong Ding.

There is also the year of its production, which is not easy to date.

A professor of history at Shendu University pointed out that through the analysis of morphology, the age of Zilong Ding should be late in the late Shang Dynasty, close to the end of the Shang Dynasty.

A researcher at the Maritime Museum pointed out in an article that Zilong Ding is a masterpiece of the early Western Zhou Dynasty.

"After King Wu conquered the merchants, the Zhou people took over the foundry industry and craft slaves of the merchants, so the bronzes cast in the early Western Zhou Dynasty will still retain the original model."

In this regard, some people pointed out that, in fact, the bronze wares of the early Western Zhou Dynasty and the bronze wares of the late Yin Ruins had many similarities.

There are both inheritance and certain differences between them.

Zilong Ding should be assigned to the period of Emperor Yi and Emperor Xin (Zhou) at the end of Shang Dynasty or the period of King Wu and King Cheng at the beginning of Zhou Dynasty.

Of course, in the opinion of some experts, this difference also has a transitional nature.

The chronology of the end of the Shang Dynasty is relatively recognized by scholars.In fact, even if it was cast in the early Western Zhou Dynasty, Zilong Ding can be regarded as the largest round tripod of that era.

Zilong Ding is the largest round bronze tripod discovered in the late Shang and early Zhou Dynasties.

Once the date is determined, it can truly correspond to the "square and one circle" of Simuwu Dafang Ding (the largest Fang Ding in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties).

There is no solution to the life experience of the largest "Shang Dynasty Yuanding" so far, an inscription with the word "dragon", and a thousand-year mystery.

When encountering such a meaningful imitation bronze tripod, Chen Wenzhe had to go back and have a look.

Even if he knew it was not a real tripod, he still wanted to see how it was imitated.

If you can't see the historical picture of the bronze tripod, it's good to have a look at the manufacturing process.

Unexpectedly, looking at it this way, I really saw some interesting things.

Because through this imitation, he saw the real one, and even saw the birth process of the bronze tripod.

It is good to see some historical fragments without seeing the real bronze tripod.

It was June 2004, and a big piece of news spread from Neon to China.

One of the largest "Shang Dynasty bronze round tripods" so far appeared in a private exhibition!
However, cultural relic experts know nothing about this great tripod, so its "mystery of life experience" has not been solved until today.

The birth of the giant tripod can be imagined as a sensation.

In June, a private exhibition of Chinese ancient cultural relics is being held in the Art Club of Neon Osaka.

The sponsor is a neon collector named Qianshi Weisi. Two days before the opening of the exhibition, two Chinese guests came to Qianshi Weisi's home.

The two entered the living room, and the first thing they saw was a huge bronze tripod placed in the room!
This bronze tripod is 103 centimeters high, 37 centimeters wide and 43 centimeters deep.

The neck of the utensil and the three-legged beast-face decoration are majestic and solemn, while the ears, which are about 22 cm higher than the bronze tripod body, add majesty to the whole tripod.

...

Such a majestic and huge bronze tripod is unique even among the bronze tripods unearthed in China over the years. How could it appear in the home of a neon man?
What surprised the two Chinese guests even more was that there was an inscription with two characters on the bronze tripod, which was interpreted as "Zilong"!
Therefore, this bronze tripod was called "Zilong Ding"!
These two Chinese guests are not ordinary people, they are the most famous bronze ware appraisal experts in China.

This time I went to Neon because of the rumors about this tripod.

The two experts who have seen countless heavy bronze vessels and personally excavated countless large bronze tripods agreed that this treasure tripod is a superb masterpiece in the late Shang Dynasty, and suggested that the national level find a way to bring the national treasure back home!

According to some international legal conventions, if a national treasure is to be returned to the motherland, relevant evidence must be submitted to prove that the item was lost overseas from the country through illegal means...

However, this one made it difficult for the experts!
It turned out that according to the neon collector Qian Shi Weisi, the land of Zilong Ding should be Hui County in Nanhe Province, China!

In the [-]s and [-]s, Neon launched a war of aggression against China. There was a Neon company called "Shanzhong Co., Ltd.", which was engaged in reselling Chinese cultural relics.

During that period, many cultural relics from the Shang and Zhou dynasties unearthed in Hui County, that box province were resold by this neon company to neon and overseas, resulting in a huge loss of Chinese cultural relics!

"Zilong Ding" was probably collected by neon collectors at that time.

However, the bad thing is that even if you know this information, you suffer from no substantive evidence!
Therefore, the hope of trying to recover the national treasure is very slim by following the path of legal recovery!

Huaxia can only start the second plan: buy!

In the tug-of-war of the purchase negotiations, Zilong Ding was exiled from Neon to Xiangjiang, and was collected by a Xiangjiang buyer for the second time.

This time, the Huaxia side is bound to win this nationally important weapon, and has sent many authoritative experts to negotiate with Xiangjiang buyers while authenticating it.

In April 2006, Zilong Ding was solicited by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage and the Ministry of Finance for joint project operation.

They spent a total of nearly 4800 million yuan, and finally let Zilong Ding return to the motherland, and it is now collected in the Huaxia National Museum.

Things have come to this point, and everything is going relatively smoothly.

However, the next series of mysteries about this giant cauldron have just begun...

Due to its huge size and exquisite shape, the Zilong Ding has never been seen before!

It and the stepmother Wufang Ding are called "Shang Dynasty Bronze Ware Double Wall"!
Undoubtedly, among the bronze tripods in my country, Zilong Ding belongs to the "top class" heavyweight master.

But there are many mysteries on this bronze ware, such as the truth about the "dragon".

Also, who is the owner of such a precious giant cauldron?
Why was it unearthed in Hui County instead of Yin Ruins in Anyang, the royal tomb of the Shang Dynasty?
But all experts who have appraised Zilongding are all shocked by its majestic kingly momentum!

Everyone believes that the owner of such a heavy bronze can only be the "King of Shang"!
However, the tombs of the kings in the late Shang Dynasty have already been known, in the Yin Ruins of Anyang, Nanhe!

And Hui County, which is not well known by people, why did the "King's Heavy Weapon" be unearthed?

The "mystery of life experience" of Zilongding has thus become a hot topic in the archaeological circle.

In fact, Hui County in Nanhe Province is not an ordinary place!
According to the "Huixian Excavation Report" written by the Huaxia Scientific Archeology Institute in 1956, it was mentioned:

"Hui County is in the interior of Yin, and due to its dense population, tombs can be seen everywhere. Now there are millennium ruins such as Liuli Pavilion, Guyu Village, Mengzhuang, and Xiuqiu."

That is to say, Hui County has been an important place in Gyeonggi since the Shang Dynasty, and many royal nobles of the Shang Dynasty lived there!

The ruins discovered in those years also included the tombs of the nobles of the Shang Dynasty, and it is very likely that there is the original hiding place of the "Zilong Ding".
