Chapter 1,717 We are close to each other in life and forced to die together.
Now that he knew that the stall owner's family had a large number of unearthed cultural relics, Chen Wenzhe naturally did not want these cultural relics to be scattered.
Therefore, if the things in the ancient tomb are really complete, he really doesn't mind paying tens of billions to buy them.
But it’s really unclear how many things are buried in an ancient tomb.
He could only infer based on the tomb specifications of the Western Zhou Dynasty that such necessary things were indispensable.
"If I want to buy it, I'll just buy the whole set. It's just some bronzes and sarcophagi and coffins. It's definitely not going to work. At least the pottery, jades, and gold that were buried with it must be there."
Chen Wenzhe didn't want to be too calculating, so he just said what he had in mind.
The stall owner was obviously taken aback. He really didn't expect Chen Wenzhe to be so greedy.
It's not that he doesn't have other things in his house, but there are some small items that they don't want to sell.
If the bronzes weren't too eye-catching, and if the sarcophagus and coffin weren't hidden at all, how could these family treasures have caused so much trouble?
Therefore, the small and valuable cultural relics were well hidden by their family and have never been discovered.
The "cemetery" system uses clan patriarchal relationships such as concubines, elders and children, and kinship to cover up class relationships.
That is what is recorded in "Zhou Li: Chun Guan Zongbo": "The burials of the former kings are in the middle, with Zhaomu on the right and left. All the princes are on the right and behind, and the ministers, ministers, and scholars are in front, each according to their clan. Everyone who died in the war
This is the realm of human signs. Those who have no merit will be ranked second. The degree of the title is based on the number of trees."
The national tomb is a national cemetery. It is in charge of the tomb attendants and the tombs are arranged according to the patriarchal relationship.
However, it seems that it cannot be hidden now.
Especially in the aristocratic cemeteries of Wei, Yan, Guo and other countries with the surname Ji, the owners of large tombs belong to the same class as the owners of small and medium-sized tombs.
In the Douji Terrace Cemetery in Baoji, Western Shaanxi, there is no family cemetery consisting of 36 Western Zhou tombs.
The fact that their family was able to produce the complete Nine Cauldrons and Eight Gui naturally means that at least one of the top tombs has not been robbed.
In Xin Village, Nanhejun County, there is no Weiguo cemetery from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the early Eastern Zhou Dynasty with an area of about 150,000 square meters.
However, those treasures can certainly make our lives worse, and even bring us no faults in life, so they are worth continuing to preserve.
Seeing that it was the stall owner who was speaking, Qiu Yanqing also calmed down.
The rulers of the Western Zhou Dynasty made the people practice family burials and continue to maintain kinship relationships. On the surface, they made us "people of the same clan, we are close to each other in life and death", which was used to weaken the faults of people of the same clan;
Chen Wenzhe wanted to take advantage of others' danger, but I also wanted to miss out on some treasures.
The stall owner was a bit embarrassed. His family had kept these treasures for more than a hundred years, so he naturally wanted to keep some as souvenirs.
The 234 tombs discovered in the Guoguo Cemetery in Xiacunling, Nanhe SMX City are all arranged in a north-south direction, with almost no overlapping remains. It is obvious that certain planning was carried out.
Therefore, the "cemetery" system serves the fundamental interests of the nobility.
We continue to practice the system of family burial based on blood relationship.
During the Western Zhou Dynasty, class differentiation had already appeared within the Zhou clan.
For example, Zheng Xuan of the Eastern Han Dynasty's Annotation "Zhou Li·Zhu Shu" records that "the descendants will be kings according to their descendants, and they will be ranked according to their superiority and inferiority." This is the most fundamental principle in the "cemetery" system.
However, regardless of this situation, it represents a small batch of large-scale, supporting small batches of precious cultural relics. "Zhou Li·Chun Guan Zongbo" said: "The tomb master is in charge of the area of Fanbang's tomb, and he is responsible for it. Order.
When it comes to national burials in the country, we should control the prohibitions; adjust the position, control the degree, and ensure that everyone has no private territory. Anyone who fights for the cemetery will be subject to prison proceedings. Command his subordinates, patrol the tomb carefully, and live in the room to guard it. "
Even if I have no choice but to do so, I still want to keep some of the most precious, or the most difficult to hide treasures.
In reality, that method should reflect the political, economic, military and social organizational forms of the time, and its purpose is not to facilitate the ruler's rule.
For example, cemeteries such as Baoji Fighting Terrace in Western Shaanxi, Zhangjiapo in Chang'an, Fengxi, and Guo are not "cemeteries" in nature.
It is even the cemetery of a small family. If the situation here is simpler and involves several bad situations, we will analyze it later.
Zheng Xuan of the Han Dynasty explained: "The cemeteries in every country are the burial places of all people."
Judging from their arrangement, the cemetery can be divided into groups of 2 to 6 tombs.
Another example is the 41 tombs of the nobles of the Yan Kingdom on the Liuli River Loess Slope in Fangshan, the capital city. The 41 tombs that have never been excavated can be divided into 6 groups, which belong to the same clan and belong to the same family.
The cemetery is the cemetery of the royal family, kings and other nobles. It is managed by family members. The cemetery is planned, the cemetery area is specified, and the map is drawn.
Previously, the engraving positions were arranged according to the patriarchal hierarchy.
Yes, it should be easy for that family. If it has been preserved for hundreds of years, we will continue to preserve it.
According to the judgment of some experts, there is probably a very close blood relationship between each group, and they may be from the same family within the same small family.
Chen Wenzhe had seen the grave pit in the photo provided by the stall owner, but he couldn't easily identify it. It was also a cemetery.
It is obvious that the ruler's regulations on the burial order of the deceased were precisely to consolidate and weaken the mutual position between the living nobles at all levels.
The "cemetery" system implemented within the nobility clearly applied the patriarchal hierarchical relationship.
According to documentary records, it should be a "cemetery".
Even for those kinds of ancient tombs, there is no way to prove what kind of things can be unearthed and what system they were buried in.
8 small tombs, 29 medium and large tombs, 28 large tombs, 2 chariot and horse pits and 12 horse pits were found here.
The 48 Western Zhou Dynasty tombs discovered in Zhangjiapo, west of Jinxi, Chang'an, can also be divided into three groups. The bad images in each group form a unit, but it is difficult to separate them completely.
If you are looking for someone to take action now, if you encounter factors that are irresistible.
This cemetery is divided into three groups: north, south, and middle. There are no differences between small, medium, and large tombs in each group.
Other than that, I would say that if we talk about the bronze carriage alone, it is definitely possible that it is one or two pieces.
Since it has not been robbed, the cultural relics unearthed in the ancient tombs are definitely not what they are now.
At most, we cannot know it clearly from the burial system of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
It must be that I don't have such a small batch of treasures, and I am willing to sell them all.
According to the records in "Zhou Li·Zhu", the clan burial cemeteries of that period were clearly divided into two types: "cemeteries" and "state tombs".
You know, it was a group of ancient tombs. Whether such an ancient tomb group has ever been discovered before, it cannot be proved without detailed information.
It is obvious that in the cemeteries of the nobles of the Yan State and the cemeteries of the Guo State described below, small tombs are the main body, with medium and large tombs occasionally in the background, indicating that they are both "cemeteries".
The burial system of the Western Zhou Dynasty is a continuation of the Shang Dynasty.
According to analysis, there was indeed a standardized burial system based on blood relations during the Western Zhou Dynasty.
There is a relatively small tomb in this group, perhaps the tomb of a clan leader or patriarch.
