Chapter 1431 The Origin of Yangtze River Civilization

The reason why the Zilong Ding received attention was not only because of its size, but also because of the two wonderful inscriptions - "Zilong".

It must be the word "dragon" that arouses people's great interest.

It is made of double hooks, much like a dragon standing upright with its tail curled to the right, with its mouth open and round eyes, extremely dynamic!

The ancestors of the Shang Dynasty evolved the "true dragon" into a "child dragon" with amazing artistic creativity, which is amazing!

This is also the unique charm of this "Zilong Ding", which is different from other Shang Dynasty bronze tripods!
As for, who did it belong to in the first place? What is the real meaning of "Zilong"?
There is no unified definite answer, because the truth of history has been buried in the long river of history.

Without seeing the real tripod, even Chen Wenzhe didn't know its specific origin.

However, now Chen Wenzhe really wanted to see the real Zilong cauldron.

Because through it, Chen Wenzhe must be able to see where it was unearthed.

For example, the world's largest bronze plate in the hall outside, if he looked back carefully, he would be able to know its origin and finally pinpoint the place where it was unearthed.

In China, even if he can't excavate the ancient tomb, it's good to know the location and protect it.

If there is a danger, it is better to do a protective excavation.

It's just that there are too many treasures like Zilong Ding in China.

Leaving aside the aforementioned Houmuwu Ding, Siyang Square Zun, Maogong Ding, and Lianhe Fanghu, there are many others, such as bronze standing figures from the Shang Dynasty.

Few people have heard of this treasure, but it is definitely the top national treasure.

The bronze standing figure was found in the Sanxingdui site in Sichuan City, and it is the highest and most complete bronze figure in the world.

It is known as the king of bronze statues in the world and is collected by Sanxingdui Museum.

Others include the well-known Goujian sword of the king of Yue-the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Chime Bells of Marquis Yi of Zeng - Warring States Period.

Bronze chariots and horses from the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang - from the Qin Dynasty.

In particular, the bronze chariot and horses were excavated in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang in 1980. They are the earliest, largest and best preserved bronze chariots and horses.

It represents the highest art of smelting and carving in the Qin Dynasty, and now it is housed in the Museum of Terracotta Warriors and Horses.

Then there are Chongbao, Changxin Palace Lantern and Ma Tafeiyan, which we have all heard of.

The Changxin Palace Lantern was unearthed in 1968 from the tomb of Douwan (the Sixth King of the Western Han Dynasty). It is lightweight, practical, yet gorgeous.

Different from other bulky and complex bronze vessels, the ingenious design and exquisite workmanship of Changxin Palace Lantern make it the first lamp in China.

The Horse Tafeiyan was unearthed in 1969 in the Leitai Han Tomb in Wuwei, Gansu Province.

Horse Stepping on Flying Swallow" is the highest representative of the ancient foundry industry in my country.

It is impressive how the ancient craftsmen found the right position on the swallow to support the whole horse and make it stable in its current position.

The cultural relic is now stored in the Gansu Provincial Museum. In 1985, "horse stepping on flying swallows" became a symbol of my country's tourism industry.

And like Zilong Ding, there are also many bronze wares with countless mysteries all over them.

Not to mention anything else, but the bronze standing statue mentioned just now carries countless mysteries.

...

It is even said that all the bronzes unearthed from the Sanxingdui site are full of mysteries.

Chen Wenzhe looked at the bronze wares in front of him. All the bronze wares he mentioned just now had to be imitated one-to-one here.

This is not easy. Putting aside so many national treasure-level bronzes, they can still be put together. It must have taken a lot of effort.

And the ones mentioned above are still fragmented and not in series.

What caught Chen Wenzhe's fancy the most was a series of bronze wares, such as the same thing as the bronze figure in front of him.

Turning in a different direction, there is the Bronze Sacred Tree over there.

These are very famous bronze wares, and they all come from the Sanxingdui site.

Of course, these of his are also imitations, but this imitation is too good.

No matter who imitates a bronze ware of this level, it is not easy to imitate it to the level at hand.

"How much did you spend?" Chen Wenzhe turned his head and looked at Li Jinli.

Li Jinli chuckled, and said very proudly: "I didn't spend money, I got it in exchange, because you can't buy such a fine product even if you spend money."

Chen Wenzhe was naturally aware of this, so he didn't avert his eyes, he just wanted to see how Li Jinli did it.

"It's not difficult. We can't give away hundreds of thousands of porcelains for nothing, right? Even if it's salvage porcelain, we only pay the cost price of salvage, which many museums can't afford."

Li Jinli said while waving his hands, leading Chen Wenzhe to move forward.

Bypassing the bronze standing statue and the bronze sacred tree, there are more bronze wares in the back, and they are all kinds of, even some strange shapes, which look very weird.

High crown, tuxedo, bronze animal face, don't these look strange?
Human heads, human faces, human masks, kneeling portraits, these are quite normal.

The subsequent dragon-shaped decorations, dragon column-shaped vessels, tiger-shaped vessels, spears, rings, Qi-shaped square holes, dragon and tiger statues, sheep statues, ampoules, lids, plates, etc., are quite satisfactory.

After that, it's obviously not a style.

However, the bronze ware that appeared later was even more spectacular.

Chen Wenzhe could tell that the previous things were not from the same period as the current ones, nor should they have been unearthed in the same place.

However, they are all unearthed from Sanxingdui.

These bronze wares include large bronze standing figures, kneeling figures, human heads, human masks, animal masks, and animal faces.

Others include altars, sacred trees, and sun-shaped utensils.

These are considered normal things, in line with our aesthetics.

But the next thing is a bit different, the eye shaper and eye bubbles, no matter how you look at it, it feels weird.

Fortunately, the latter ones are still normal, such as copper bells, copper ornaments, copper spears, and copper Qi-shaped square holes.

Then there are some beasts, such as birds, snakes, chickens, monsters, buffalo heads, deer, catfish and so on.

These things look like sacrificial offerings at first glance, and they must have come from the sacrificial pit.

As for this kind of sacrificial pit, the Sanxingdui Research Institute has announced that the dating of the sacrificial pit is 3200 to 3000 years ago.

For a long time, we have been incomparably miraculous and shocked by the strange shapes and exquisite shapes of various cultural relics in Sanxingdui.

Where did they come from?Why is it so hot?Why can you always see "blind boxes" in the Sanxingdui site?
What is Sanxingdui?The Sanxingdui ancient site covers an area of ​​12 square kilometers and has a history of 5000 to 3000 years ago.

Sanxingdui is the ancient city, ancient country, and ancient Shu cultural site with the largest scope, the longest duration, and the richest cultural connotation discovered so far in Southwest China.

The best-preserved east, west and south city walls and the inner city wall of Moon Bay.

The Sanxingdui ancient site is known as one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of mankind in the 20th century.

His appearance shows that the Yangtze River Basin, like the Yellow River Basin, belongs to the mother body of Chinese civilization, and is known as the "source of Yangtze River civilization".
