My system is not decent

This nine-story demon tower is composed of a tomb passage, a tomb gate, a corridor, an east room, a west room, a middle room and a south room.

This "cross-shaped" tomb layout actually followed the precedent of early high-level tombs in Tubo.

For example, it has been recorded in the literature that the tomb of Songtsan Gampo was "made of a square grid" and "there is no seat for a temple built inside the tomb, and its exterior is sealed like a mountain".

As for Xuewei Tomb No. [-], the middle room is a wooden coffin room, plus three stone rooms in the east, west, and south, and the north tomb passage, which is more suitable.

Looking at the burial objects, as early as 2018, the robbery of the 3.15 hot water tombs shocked the whole country, involving as many as 646 cultural relics.

Since 2019, rescue excavations have been carried out for the first and second floors that have been excavated.

This excavation has made new progress and discoveries, and more funerary objects that can reflect the cultural exchanges between China and the West come into view.

The first is all kinds of silk fabrics, the most representative of which is the Bharapo script brocade.

This is a Persian tapestry from the 8th century, which is unique in the world and has a strong exotic style.

This provides an excellent testimony for us to understand the spread of Central Asian patterns to the East.

Between the pure white glaze, a sapphire-like dragon and phoenix suddenly appear, which is naturally beautiful.

In addition, there are a large number of gold and silver wares, and many gold and silver wares like to be inlaid with turquoise, which also reflects the Tibetan people's special love for turquoise;

The high temperature makes the color bright and clean, which is deeper and more elegant than the three-color blue, and has a luster similar to sapphire. Therefore, this high-temperature blue glaze is also called sapphire blue glaze.

At this time, the blue glaze still uses cobalt oxide as the colorant, while the glaze has already used high-temperature lime alkali glaze.

This white glaze dish is 4.1 cm high, 15.9 cm in diameter and 5.3 cm in foot diameter.

The lotus leaf symbolizes harmony and happiness, so the lotus leaf-covered pot is a typical utensil of the Yuan Longquan Kiln, and it is also an auspicious utensil highly praised by the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty.

An underglaze red handle cup, 10cm high, 7.7cm in diameter, 3.8cm in foot diameter.

In the process of conquering the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Tubo annexed dozens of small states successively.

Therefore, Chen Wenzhe's attention was still focused on the two pieces of underglaze red porcelain.

The plate is open, shallow arc wall, circle foot.

The underglaze red is randomly applied to the blank space of the pattern to form a red ground and white flowers, which enhances the artistic effect of the pattern.

Rare things are precious, since there are more blue and white flowers of this kind, it is not too precious.

The mouth of the cup is skimmed, the belly is deep, the bottom is thin, and the bottom is supported by hollow bamboo-style high feet.

The bottom of the cup and the height are connected with the tenon and tenon, and can be rotated freely without being disengaged.

After looking through all the photos, Chen Wenzhe unexpectedly found a piece of sapphire-grade blue-glazed porcelain among them.

Yuhuchun vase is a common type of Jingzhen porcelain in the Yuan Dynasty. In addition to the red glaze, there are blue and white glazes, blue and white glazes, and peacock green glazes.

After Yuan unifies China, it is hoped that Han and Mongolia will live in harmony and develop together.

In the Yuan Dynasty, there seemed to be quite a lot of porcelain with this lotus leaf pattern.

The other one is a jade pot spring vase with red underglaze pattern and rabbit pattern. It is 20.5cm high, 6.3cm in diameter and 6.8cm in foot diameter.

The overall carving technique of this device is skilled, the blade is sharp and free, the lines are smooth and natural, and the image is lifelike.

These small states either had kinship relations with Tubo, or married with the Tubo royal family, and were deeply influenced by Tubo culture.

Such as Yangtong, Supi, Tuyuhun and so on.

This is a sapphire-glazed flat pot with dragon and phoenix patterns. It is glazed all over with white glaze, and the dragon and phoenix patterns in it are sapphire blue.

Painted human-shaped wooden plaques, gold ornaments inlaid with turquoise, gold vases, gold ornaments for horse harnesses, richly patterned silk fabrics...

In fact, before the Yuan Dynasty, my country's porcelain was mainly white and celadon with plain colors.

According to the latest news, nearly a thousand cultural relics have been excavated after three years of rescue.

The decorative plaques of this cup are brightly colored and as beautiful as the sunset, which is a rare treasure.

The mouth of the bottle is curled, the neck is narrow, the belly is hanging down, and the feet are round.

The little rabbit looked back and watched, and finished the eyes with underglaze red.

As Tubo was a center of cultural exchange across the east and west, it is not surprising that various civilizational characteristics appeared in the Tuyuhun tombs under its influence.

The shape of the vessel is thick, round and simple, the patina is thick, and the simplicity reveals a rich and dignified temperament, which represents the style of that era.

Maybe through some things from the Yuan Dynasty, some secrets of the Western Regions can be discovered!
Of course, this Chen Wenzhe is not in a hurry, after all, he has no plans to travel west now.

After searching for a while, Chen Wenzhe found a photo of an egg white glaze printed cloud and dragon pattern plate.

The high temperature lime alkali glaze has the characteristics of stickiness and strong adhesion, which makes the glaze layer and the carcass tightly combined.

A hare is depicted on the upper abdomen, running among the flowers and plants.

Up to now, more than 1000 pieces of cultural relics such as gold and silver wares, bronze wares, iron wares, lacquered wood wares, leather wares, jade wares, glass wares and textiles have been unearthed.

Animal pattern ornaments are still one of the favorite themes of nomads.

Apply glaze red to the mouth of the bottle.

In 1980, a Yuan Dynasty stem cup with a red underglaze plastic sticker with a panchi pattern was also unearthed in Gao'an, Xijiang, from the Yuan Dynasty porcelain cellar. The cup foot can also be rotated.

The whole body is covered with green and white glaze, and 3 pieces of red spots in the glaze are applied on the body of the cup, and a small circle is placed side by side.

In addition, the craftsmanship of hammering gold pieces is not only popular in the northern grasslands, but also applicable in Tubo;

The whole body is covered with green and white glaze, and there are 4 dark engraved string patterns on the shoulders and the largest abdominal diameter.

It can be seen from this that turning the stem cup should be one of the era characteristics of the Yuan Dynasty stem cup.

Colored porcelain appeared relatively late, and people in the Tang Dynasty began to apply blue glaze on porcelain.

The Yuan Dynasty was the era with the most frequent and successful cultural exchanges between China and the West in history.

This kind of egg white glaze porcelain is the most, but the craftsmanship is definitely the top.

It can also be seen from this that the egg white glazed porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty is also unique.

The cup foot that can be rotated freely increases its enjoyment.

Continuing to look at the photos, there are many porcelains with lotus leaf patterns in the middle of the two underglaze red porcelains.

In 2018, a large number of exquisite relics were unearthed from Tomb No. [-] in Xuewei, some of which were crafted and decorated with rich ethnic styles such as Sassanian Persia in West Asia and Sogdia in Central Asia.

In the Yuan Dynasty, Jingzhen adopted a new production process, that is, "cobalt" was melted into the glaze as a coloring agent, and a beautiful sapphire-like cobalt blue glaze was fired.

With such rich and precious burial objects, people can't help guessing who is the owner of the tomb?
Among them is a seal that should have a camel, which may be the key to unlocking the information of the owner of the tomb.

But what can be speculated at present is that it should belong to a high-ranking Tuyuhun leader.

The carcass is white, with egg white glaze inside and outside.

Both the inner bottom and the inner wall are molded with cloud and dragon patterns.

This is the standard Shufu glaze, also known as "egg white glaze".

The main decoration method is moulding, and the subject matter is relatively simple. The common ones are dragon pattern, reed goose pattern or twining pattern.

Because of the pattern of these white-glazed porcelain, the word "Private Office" is often molded in the middle, so it is called "Private-glazed White Porcelain".
