Master Archaeologist

Chapter 184 Are you also worthy of the posthumous posthumous "Wen"?

Chapter 184 Are you also worthy of the posthumous posthumous "Wen"?
"Fuck!"

An exclamation came from Ling An's mouth.

Chen Han and the others, who were used to him always yelling, were too lazy to react.

Only Zhuang Yunpeng, who was standing next to him, bumped Ling An's shoulder wordlessly.

"Why, have you discovered another "rare treasure"?"

Can't blame them for not caring.

Rather, in the past two hours, everyone has heard "Fuck" seven or eight times and "this is a rare treasure" more than ten times from Ling An's mouth!

For this newcomer of the Guangzhou Institute of Archeology, it is not easy to encounter a heavyweight tomb!
Every cultural relic he unearthed with his own hands is a rare treasure and a heavyweight cultural relic in his mouth.

"No." Ling An shook his head again and again, stretched out his hand from the coffin, and took out a pair of jade.

"This time it is really a rare treasure!"

Everyone looked at his hands.

This is a double-walled bibi with grain patterns. The so-called grain pattern means that there are a bunch of round patterns similar to "millet" on the body of the bibi.

"Quick, measure the size!" Director Fu said hastily.

Zhuang Yunpeng immediately took out the soft ruler that he carried with him, and while measuring, reported: "The overall length is 12.4 cm, the overall height is 7.6 cm, the diameter of the wall is 6.2 cm, and the aperture is 2.0 cm."

This double bibimb is composed of two round jade bibimbs with a diameter of 6.2 cm, and the joints are also hollowed out and decorated with cloud patterns. It is obviously carved out of one piece with a large piece of jade.

Its jade is still made of sapphire, but the yellow flowers are severely albino, and some of them have been corroded, and there are still some traces of entanglement on the surface.

It is estimated that at the time of burial, it was wrapped in silk before being put into the coffin.

"This double bib is under the tomb owner's shoes. It should be placed on the sole of the foot." Ling An said excitedly.

The double wall he found seemed to be a signal.

Next, Chen Han, Zhuang Yunpeng, Director Fu, and Professor Li all surrounded the jade clothes one after another, and discovered the exquisitely carved and glamorous jade wares!

Chen Han and Professor Li found a jade ornament on the top and both sides of the hood.

Among them, the one on the left is a blue and white jade carved beast head ring.

On the right is a jade dragon with a tiger head and a golden hook.

On the left side of Professor Fu's side, he also found an openwork phoenix-shaped tablet.

In addition, an openwork dragon-pattern jade bi and a openwork dragon-phoenix heavy-ring jade pei were covered on the mask.

These jade discs and jade pendants are far superior to the ten jade discs covering the jade clothes in terms of craftsmanship and fineness.

If we say that the ten pieces of jade that cover the jade clothes are mass-produced currency.

These jade wares carefully wrapped in silk and placed in the coffin are out-of-print models carefully hand-carved by the masters one by one.

Each piece of texture and carving is unique!
Playing with a jade pendant in his hand, Chen Han exclaimed: "This is really a world made of jade. It feels like the owner of the tomb can't wait to make all the coffins out of jade."

"It's not just jade."

Professor Li shook his head.

After extracting and collecting all the jade pieces from the hood of the jade garment, the situation under the hood of the tomb owner was revealed.

Under the hood, a silken pearl pillow is upholstered.

The silk capsule has been decayed, but judging from the remains, the pillow is about 30 centimeters long and 10 centimeters wide, and its height is unknown.

The pearls used as pillow cores are all small beads with a diameter of 1 to 3 mm, and very few are as large as 1 mm.

And even though the silk sacs were decayed, these pearls were not completely scattered, and still maintained the shape of a pillow.

"Pearl." Chen Han nodded suddenly.

The coastal waters of Guangdong 2000 years ago and the coastal waters of Guangdong today are completely different things.

At that time, Guangdong's fishery had not yet been developed, and the coastal waters basically maintained the most primitive and richest seafood.

Lingnan is rich in pearls.

The so-called South Sea pearls refer to the pearls produced in Lingnan.

Panyu is close to the sea, so many sea mussels can be caught casually from the sea.

There are so many pearls in the South of the Five Ridges that they can supply the entire Western Han Dynasty, and they are even a little rich.

Therefore, pearls that are relatively rare and rare in the interior, and can only be discussed in single digits, in Zhao Hu's hands, are so extravagant that they can be used as pearl pillows.

This pearl pillow is even more high-grade than the jade pillow.

I am afraid that even the emperors of the Western Han Dynasty could not enjoy such a luxurious usage.

This is also the unique advantage of Lingnan.

In addition, many small beads were also found on the chest and abdomen of Yuyi.

Perhaps it was the pearl jacket covering the jade garment.

Zhu jackets are actually short garments decorated with beads, which are made of various colorful beads and silk.Usually worn as the outermost layer.

Because the beads were all scattered, Chen Han and the others had no way to recover the bead jacket, they could only extract these small beads one by one.

Among them, there are the most light blue small glass beads, which are scattered in pieces between the chest and abdomen, and there are three fabric belts stitched with decorative parts, which are clearly identifiable.

These blue glass beads were supposed to be strung together into three bead chains.

In addition, other decorations include light blue glass shells, flower-shaped gold bubbles, plain gold bubbles, plain silver bubbles, and plain steamed gold copper bubbles, which form two types of graphics.

Moreover, under the chest and abdomen, which is the position behind the waist of the owner of the tomb, there is also a string of jade pendants, which are composed of many exquisite openwork jade ornaments, small jade figures, gold beads, glass beads, etc. The ribbons are rotten, and some ornaments have been scattered and displaced.

If you want to reconstruct a complete jade pendant, you have to go through detailed repairs.

But just from the style and exquisiteness of these jade ornaments, it can be seen that they are much more high-end than the jade ornaments of the "Jing Xiang Ling" in the front room.

Delicacy and jade quality are not one or two points.

It is indeed the jade pendant worn by the king.

If it can be restored and strung together into a complete set of jade pendants, it will definitely be very, very beautiful, and it can become the treasure of the Nanyue King Museum in the future!
Finally, after cleaning up the jade pendants, jade huang, jade clothes, jade bi, and pearls, only the last item remained in the inner coffin.

Beauty!

The four pieces of jade figures are all kneeling, with flat tops and oval faces, and there are only slight differences in details.

A jade figure with hands hanging down and crossed.

A jade figure clasped its hands on its chest, with its feet curled backwards.

The upper body of a jade figure is disabled, leaving only the kneeling lower body.

The last piece of jade also has both hands hanging down and crossing the lapel.

For these four pieces of jade, the facial features and two ears are carved with thin lines, and the two sleeves and the back skirt are also drawn with simple lines.

Among them are still the jade men with the upper heads, and the facial features are slightly different, some have rather large ears, and some have oblate or oval faces.

The backs of the heads of the two beauties are drawn with lightly engraved line patterns, and there are lines on the backs that outline the clothes.

As for the two male jade men, their hair is also combed in a bun, which is somewhat similar to the "hairstyle" of the terracotta warriors and horses in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, which is different from the style of the Western Han Dynasty.

"It's really extravagant to have a real person buried with him, and a jade man to be buried with him." Chen Han muttered softly.

Both living people and dummy people are used.

Moreover, the burial was very generous, and a large amount of jade was used to accompany him, which cost astronomical sums.

Such a monarch was given the posthumous title of "Wen". This made the Emperor Wen of Han, who had been frugal all his life, and was very frugal in matters after his death, only willing to be buried lightly instead of digging up mountains and mausoleums, how should he deal with himself?

This posthumous title of "Wen" should humiliate this truly benevolent and literary emperor!
