My system is not decent

Chen Wenzhe liked the ancient tomb system very much, so he knew very well what the ancient tombs looked like.

Therefore, he must also be very clear about what funerary objects may exist in an ancient tomb.

For example, in the ancient tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty, there are many things that can exist, and those that must exist must be more precious.

But in the albums he saw, many precious and necessary funeral objects did not appear.

As for how many did not appear, it depends on the Western Zhou Dynasty, according to the regulations of the princes, what should be buried with the funerary objects.

The system of burial with tripods in the Western Zhou Dynasty stipulated that the emperor had nine tripods and the princes had seven tripods. This is generally correct.

According to the latest archaeological excavations, Jiuding was also used in the tombs of princes in the Spring and Autumn Period.

In addition to the necessities of tripod and gui, the second is human sacrifice. Of course, there is no human sacrifice for this.

In the tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty, people were often buried with human sacrifices, ranging from one person to as many as seven.

Most of the burials are placed on the second-floor platform, and some have funeral utensils.

No martyrs were found in the large tombs in Liulihe, the capital of the gods, but martyrs were found in several medium-sized tombs.

It can be seen that whether or not a person is used for burial does not entirely depend on the size of the tomb or the social status of the owner of the tomb.

Among the 7 to [-] medium and small tombs excavated in Zhangjiapo, about [-]% of the tombs were found with martyrs, all of which were early Western Zhou burials.

However, in the tombs of the late Western Zhou Dynasty here, there is no such phenomenon as the burial of useful people, which is a relatively obvious change.

Besides the burial objects, the burial objects in the Western Zhou tombs mainly include pottery, bronze ritual vessels, weapons, chariot and horse vessels, jade decorations, primitive porcelain and lacquerware, etc.

The burial objects in the large tombs and some medium-sized tombs are very rich, including a complete set of exquisitely crafted bronze ritual vessels.

The shapes of the utensils include tripod, 鬲, 甗, gu, jue, gou, zun, you, pot, thululus, pan, 匜, etc.

The combination takes the tripod as the core, and the number of tripods used marks the social status of the tomb owner.

The early bronze ritual vessels are not much different from those of the late Shang Dynasty in terms of shape and decoration.

In the late Western Zhou Dynasty, the number of wine vessels decreased greatly, while the number of food vessels increased.

The shapes and decorations of the tripod and gui have also undergone major changes.

A set of three chime bells was also found in the tombs of King Mu's period discovered in Pudu Village, Chang'an.

Most of the small tombs were buried with pottery, and the shapes of the utensils include gilts, pots, gui, zun, pots, beans, and bowls.

The tombs of the early and late Western Zhou Dynasty have obvious differences in the combination and shape of the funerary pottery.

The bronze ritual vessels in the mound tombs in the south are often full of local characteristics.

For example, the three legs of the tripod are pointed and cone-shaped, and the utensils are often in pairs.

In addition, there are some utensils whose uses are unknown.

Such as a pair of angular vessels unearthed from Yandun Mountain in Dantu, Jiangxi Province, and a pair of five-column vessels unearthed in Tunxi.

In the tombs in this area, there are usually more primitive porcelain buried with them, and there are also many changes in the types and shapes of the vessels.

In the tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty in the Central Plains, although there are also primitive porcelain buried with them, the number is very small, and the shape of the vessels is relatively simple, most of which are bean-shaped.

The unearthed jade decorations include wall, cong, gui, Zhang, handle-shaped ornaments, and animal statues such as fish, dragon, bird, and beast.

Others include agate, glass beads and other ornaments.

In Liulihe and other places, lacquerware from the Western Zhou Dynasty were also unearthed, but most of them were decayed and only traces remained. The shapes of the vessels that can be restored include beans, gus, zus, and scorpions.

Although Chen Wenzhe didn't speculate seriously, he just looked at the tomb and the unearthed bronzes in the photo, and he already knew that it was a combined burial site of the cemetery and the state tomb.

These cemeteries are a bit complex, and he sees a lot of potential in them.

Why do you say that?After all, he didn't see some other tombs, especially the small Bang Tomb, that is, the small burial pit.

This depends on the photos of the ruins of the ancient city. Since it is an ancient city, it is naturally impossible that there are only princes.

Therefore, Bang Tomb must exist.

That family has excavated the ruins of an ancient city, how could they abandon a large number of small tombs?

In addition to bronzes, there must be pottery, weapons, salvaged chariots and horses, jade ornaments, primitive porcelain and lacquerware, etc.

In addition, there must be many cultural relics unearthed in other tomb pits.

Since he had this inference, Chen Wenzhe would not make false claims with the stall owner, because with his current strength, there is no need!

Therefore, Chen Wenzhe directly pointed out the problems in the photos.

"Is there any signboard for other tombs? This should be a Han Dynasty tomb, right? Are there any Shang Dynasty tombs? Keep things and don't give birth."

"I know it can't be hidden. There is also a photo album here, which is the excavation photos of the ancient city ruins as a whole."

Chen Wenzhe took it over and inspected it carefully again. Sure enough, there were no artifacts unearthed this time, just some photos of the tomb.

These photos are also useful, because the first one is a Han Dynasty tomb.

Chen Wenzhe was able to recognize it at a glance, mainly because horizontal caves were generally used as tombs in the Han Dynasty, and tombs were built with bricks and stones.

This is in shape, imitating the houses in real life.

This is an epoch-making change in my country's ancient tomb system.

This change mainly began in the middle of the Western Han Dynasty, first occurred in the Yellow River Basin, and then spread to various places.

Among the noble tombs, the Mancheng Han Tombs in Beihe Province and the Jiulongshan Han Tombs in Qufu, Qilu Province can be regarded as representatives of the emerging horizontal cave-style tombs in the middle of the Western Han Dynasty.

They are huge caves dug in the cliff as tombs, so they are called "cliff tombs". The shape and structure completely imitate houses.

In the Yellow River Basin and the northern region, the general horizontal pit tombs are underground earth cave tombs, which are small in scale and simple in structure, and the owner of the tomb belongs to the lower class of landlords.

In ancient my country, the coffins and outer chambers were called together, and they all belonged to burial utensils.

Various horizontal pit tombs after the mid-Western Han Dynasty, especially brick-chambered tombs and stone-chambered tombs in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

These tombs themselves functioned as coffins, which can be called "brick coffins" and "stone coffins", while the burial utensils in the tombs have coffins but no coffins.

In the early and middle Western Han Dynasty, the joint burial of husband and wife still took the form of "joint burial at different points".

After the mid-Western Han Dynasty, the system changed. Outside the imperial mausoleum, couples were generally buried together in the same tomb.

The horizontal cave-style tomb provides convenience for joint burial in the same tomb.

Compared with the Warring States period, the burial objects in Han tombs decreased in bronze ware, while the proportion of lacquer ware further increased.

In order to store large amounts of food and drink, there are often many large pottery in the tomb.

In the early and mid-Western Han Dynasty, the practical utensils used during his lifetime should be buried with him.

After the mid-Western Han Dynasty, various pottery Ming vessels specially made for burial were added.

It includes models of warehouses, stoves, wells, mills, and pavilions, as well as idols such as pigs, dogs, and chickens.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were more types and quantities of artifacts.

The sleeping hall is located in the north of the cemetery, setting a precedent for the emperor's mausoleum.

The imperial mausoleums of the Western Han Dynasty, except for Emperor Wen's Ba Mausoleum, which is "hidden because of the mountain", all have square mounds with overturned buckets, which are located in the center of the cemetery.
