The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

After careful cleaning, the silver crown ornaments and the bones of the owner of the tomb were completely exposed, and the bones were in good condition. Perhaps the coffin used at the time blocked the erosion of the bones over the past few hundred years.

Many of this human bones were crushed and crushed by the collapsed earth and rocks above. In Zhang Nan's words: "Unlucky enough, let the tank crush."

The joke is a joke. There are many masters on this trip. Judging from the bones of the tomb owner, the tomb owner is a male, and his height is about 1.8 meters.

There are also experts who have studied the relatively tall technology of judging age from bones. After careful inspection, they believe that the tomb owner is most likely to be between 25 and 30 years old, and the oldest will not be more than 35 years old.

As for the cause of death...

I'm sorry, all of them were crushed and fractured, and there were no traces of knife and axe wounds on the surface of the bones. Even if this guy was chopped 18 times two thousand years ago, it is still difficult to judge how he died.

As for whether it is a disease, only the gods can know: Except for a few malignant diseases, it rarely affects the bones. It is even harder to tell from a bone skeleton 2000 years ago, let alone a small cold. An era that can easily kill people!

It is impossible to determine the identity of the tomb owner from the bones, but this silver crown can show that this guy is also a king in size, even a Zuo Xian king, I don’t know who it is—the Huns have no name or surname, Shan Yu. There are a lot of them, let alone a king.

A very distinctive crown ornament, at first glance it seems to be a bit of ancient Egypt, consisting of a crown ornament and three strips of band ornaments.

The crown is like a round lid with a silver eagle on the top. The eagle is embossed with feather-like patterns, spreading its wings, and the eagle eyes are inlaid with two small green stones, which look like turquoise.

There are 3 wolves and 3 sheep embossed on the top of the crown. The eagle looks at the wolf and eats the sheep: the wolf and the sheep are lying opposite each other, the wolf’s limbs are bent forward and bite the back of the sheep, and the sheep’s horns are rolled back and the front limbs Bend forward, with his hind limbs turned upside down and fell on the wolf's neck.

The crown band is composed of three semicircular silver bars. The front two are connected by tenon riveting between the top and bottom. The front and rear ends of the back one are connected to the front part of the crown band by a tenon riveting structure.

The main part of each crown is decorated with rope patterns, and there are embossed tigers, lying horses, and argali at both ends. Nong Bosheng estimated that there should have been fabrics such as leather or silk between the crown band and the crown. Now only the gray-black silver crown band and the crown are left, and the other objects have long been gone.

In addition to the crown ornaments, there are many gold and silver wares worn by the owner of the tomb. In particular, except for the silver crown ornament on his head, all other objects on his body are of gold texture.

The belt is decorated with gold plates, using the pattern of a tiger bullfighting. Three tigers face three bulls, which can weigh half a catty.

There are also many gold tigers, golden wolves, and golden eagles decorated with gold pieces on clothes, which are rough in shape and much thinner than the belt gold trim.

Probably because of the large number of people, this Charlie also joined the fun at close range, no longer worrying.

After the whole tomb was dug down to the bottom of the tomb, I finally found an object that could determine the specific time of the tomb, a 13 cm diameter bronze mirror made in China.

Russian experts did not have much research on the Chinese bronze mirror, so I have to listen to the introduction of Nong Bosheng and others: This has a great effect on the dating of tombs.

Nongbosheng introduced it in Russian, because it was mixed with a lot of Chinese-specific nouns, even Irina did not do simultaneous translation.

I can’t translate, those specific nouns are not in Russian or English, and she doesn’t know what these words refer to.

"Brother, this bronze mirror is very valuable?"

Seeing how several experts attach great importance to the small bronze mirror, Charlie, who understands Chinese but does not understand Russian, had to ask Zhang Nan.

Zhang Nan doesn't understand Russian, but he knows why Nong Bosheng and others value this mirror.

"This is a type of the four-shen game mirror in the Han dynasty. It is called a regular mirror. Some people call it a game mirror.

If it is in the antique market in China, this bronze mirror is a relatively fine product, and it is also relatively common in the archaeological world.

The neat and rigorous layout on the back of the mirror and the mysterious symbols resembling the English "LTV" letters actually originated from a gambling game in the pre-Qin and Han dynasties of China BC.

There are rules in gambling, so those lines are called Bojun lines. When a mirror is made, some weird and magical animal decorations and inscriptions to pray for auspiciousness are sometimes added.

In the Western world, because there are three symbols that resemble T, L, and V in this pattern, those Western scholars call this kind of mirror "TLV" pattern.

Russian experts know about the "TLV" mirror, but these few people do not know that through archaeological excavations in these years, China has concluded that this type of bronze mirror pattern was popular in the early Eastern Han Dynasty from Wang Mang to the early Eastern Han Dynasty. .

Combining with the characteristics of the immortal decorations on the mirror, the curator Nong thinks that the mirror is very similar to the bronze mirror in the Wang Mang period, but some inscriptions that eulogize the virtues often in the Wang Mang period have been removed. It can basically be judged to be a mirror in the early Eastern Han Dynasty..."

Objects have their own characteristics of the time. If you figure it out, you can figure out the general age of the tombs.

Just because of this mirror, it can be preliminarily determined that the date of this tomb will never be earlier than the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the offline time is probably in the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

How did Zhang Nan know?

There are many powerful local tombs in the Eastern Han Dynasty in his hometown. The unearthed artifacts are worth a bit of money and some collection value, except for the jade that Zhang Nan discovered by chance.

He has no love for pottery, no matter whether you are a barn or a Han pot, you don't like it at all.

Of course, this is only a preliminary judgment. Some specimens, such as some low-value pottery fragments, will be more accurate at this time after the carbon-14 determination is carried out in the future, but everyone hopes that the age of the tomb can be roughly determined during the field archaeology stage. This is a sense of accomplishment.

...

The experts have a sense of accomplishment, but there is another question: Zhang Nan!

It was getting late, and even Zhang Nan started to feel hungry. This meeting was a little more than a little bit late. In order to dig things, this group of people ignored the meal and rest time after meals.

Most of the people returned to the camp, leaving behind a few archeological guys who could serve as food to pick up cultural relics.

When Zhang Nan and Charlize Theron were dining in a private tent, Nong Bosheng came to the door.

He was not polite, pulled a chair and sat down, and said, "A Nan, what do you say about the complete tomb of the king?"

It's not just the tomb. The tomb passage may be because this guy was more powerful at the beginning, or it may be the reason why the Huns were not so strict about the tomb level when they arrived.

It's not Shan Yu, it must be the king, no matter what kind of king he is, it is basically not wrong to call it the tomb of the king.

Zhang Nan was eating some beef tenderloin with hot pepper, and said after hearing this: "If you like me, I will get it back for you. Don't bother about those Russians."

The curator smiled, "I don't want it, it's not appropriate, I mean you are not interested."

"Furthermore, director of the farm, to be honest, I have an average appetite for the things dug out from the tomb.

Let's take a look again, there is just a king who doesn't know what it is called. If there are not many complete singles in the tomb, then move back.

If the cemetery of the boss does not even leave a complete large tomb for the Mongols, I am afraid that you will not look good on your face. "

Yes, since Zhang Nan stood on the armored vehicle and said bold words and wanted to plan it all out, it is not just a matter of digging, but also to take away all the digging!

But in the future, we will have to squeeze oil from Mongolia. If we don’t leave it at all, it’s not justified. We also need to save some face for the relevant departments of China.

I'll take the meat away, so I have to leave some bones.

"I'm also worried that you won't even leave a clay pot for the Mongols. That's good."

Nong Bosheng is relieved, no one here can restrain Zhang Nan, if he messes around, no one can help.

The curator doesn’t know that Zhang Nanyi really has no appetite for tombs. More importantly, he wants to spend 20 to 30 years on this land to scrape thousands, even hundreds of billions of dollars. Wealth and resources!

Grasping the resources here is tantamount to controlling the economic lifeline of this country. It makes no difference if there is less tomb of the king.

The resources came from this ghost place, and it was Huaxia who paid the bill, because the buyer of the resources could only be Huaxia. In this way, Zhang Nan became a big villain?

mistaken!

Money is nothing but paper. Goods such as refined copper mines are strategic resources. Zhang Nan is definitely a good man, at least he loves China.

The curator of agriculture was relieved, Zhang Nan asked here: "I said, you said that China has an eagle-shaped golden crown, which is from Inner Mongolia?"

"Yes, in 1972, it was discovered in a high-level Huns tomb in Alu Chaideng, Zhaomeng Hang, Jinqi. The Warring States period was almost three hundred years earlier than the silver crown found today."

Zhang Nan was a little dizzy when he heard it. This place name seemed to have never been heard before, but he didn't have much concept.

Suddenly, his mind brightened. He was from the south of the Yangtze River. Of course, this Yike Zhaomeng was not familiar with it. He never went to Inner Mongolia when he ran the supply and marketing meeting. The most familiarity with this place name is the degree that he has occasionally heard of.

But this league will be renamed in a few years. Too many teenagers have no impression of the specific name, but the new name is basically known to all Huaxia people: Ordos.

Few people have heard of Ordos cashmere sweaters, and many people know the famous Ordos ghost town, a classic sample of real estate development in some parts of China.

Hearing this, Zhang Nan turned his mind again, and then said: "I have no impression, it seems that I don't have a name."

Nong Bosheng smiled and said: "It is not named because we are all from the south of the Yangtze River. It is normal for you to have no impression. Besides, things are hidden in the vault of the Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology of the Autonomous Region. Basically, they will not be exhibited publicly. Except for the photos on the data, not many people know what it looks like, let alone people who have seen the real thing."

"How about that thing, I mean, in terms of craftsmanship, it compares with this one I found today."

"It's a lot higher, that would be a Huns craftsman. No, it should be said that the goldsmiths controlled by the Huns seem to have higher skills than those three hundred years later.

The shape is almost the same, that is, the craftsmanship is much more superb. It is said that the eagle on the crown, the silver eagle found today is a whole piece, with two eyes embedded in turquoise.

That piece is a golden eagle with two pieces of turquoise inlaid on the head and neck of the eagle, and a lace gold piece is tied between the head and neck.

These techniques are trivial. The superb craftsmanship is that gold wire is inserted into the nose of the eagle, which can be connected to the abdomen through the neck, and the head and neck of the eagle can be shaken.

Moreover, the tail of the eagle is inserted into the body of the eagle after being made separately, and it is connected with gold wire like the head, and it will swing left and right as soon as it moves.

I remember that the embossed crown on the top should be 4 wolves and 4 sheep. This one is three to three. There may also be a hierarchy here, but what is going on..."

Zhang Nan interrupted, "Probably only ghosts know."

Nong Bosheng nodded. As long as the history of the Huns is not recorded in the Chinese history books, the world is really only known to ghosts.

At this point, Nong Bosheng is not a pity, or is happy to say: "From the current known archaeological materials, the eagle-shaped golden crown ornament from Inner Mongolia before today is the only crown ornament of northern ethnic minorities in the pre-Qin and Han Dynasties that can be confirmed. specimen.

\'Grassland Treasure\', how do the northern archaeological circles call it, it is still the only \'Hu Guan\' found in China so far.

Now that there is one more top, it can be regarded as the only one in that world. "

After hearing this, Zhang Nan said: "We only dug a head, the big head is still behind, I guess it is very possible to dig it out.

There is no way, here is the core area of ​​the Xiongnu activities. Take it home if it's a big deal, it's ours if you take it back. "

"Yes, you are free, just don't pull up our old guys, or we can't even give it to us."

Speaking of this, Nongbo rose up and said to Charlize Theron: "Charlie, you eat slowly, I will go to the meeting first."

The girl answered politely: "Goodbye, Director of Agriculture."

Zhang Nan listened to the conversation between the two and corrected Cha Li: "What should you say: Oh~www.readwn.com~You are busy, you are busy."

"grammar?"

"We always say that in this situation in our hometown. It is very procedure and written words to say goodbye just now, and acquaintances would not say anything..."

Nong Bosheng ignored the conversation between the two behind him. These two are two super quick treasures: absolutely super, if not super, can you run Menggu Gao with such great momentum?

...

Lunch is Chinese food, this is full of food and drink, the girl's house went to lie down in the field toilet again, let people guard it outside.

No way, several toilets were dug in the camp, but men and women were the only ones here before.

As soon as he came back, Charlie yawned and said, "Brother, when will the team arrive?"

"I didn’t tell you, the fastest at 8 or 9 o’clock in the evening, don’t talk about the high speed here, from the big provincial capital to here, except for the first few dozen kilometers of roads, most of them are on the grasslands. With the terrain open, it will take three or four hours to soak in this section.

But they will open faster in front, and they should be able to use a decent bathroom at night. "

Zhang Nan knows why she asked, the field toilet, on that condition.

"Oh."

Charlie was helpless and yawned again by the way.

It will be around two o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhang Nan doesn't bother to calculate what time it is in Los Angeles. Seeing her sleepy state after her mental head passes, she doesn't expect her to suffer jet lag in the evening.

"I'm going to a busy meeting, you will sleep in my bed, and I will call you when dinner is late."

"Oh."

The girl was also not a hero, so she walked into the room and began to take off her clothes and get ready to go to bed.

Zhang Nan is really in trouble, and he started to move the big rocks on the top of the tomb of Wang Zhaojun, who was suspected of being Wang Zhaojun.
