The Digui tribe originated from the Xiongnu and later merged into the Xianbei tribe.
In order to stabilize the rule of Han areas, Emperor Taiwu of Wei vigorously promoted the integration of Xianbei and Han.
Li Xian's great-grandfather Li Fu lived in the era of Emperor Taiwu of Wei (408-452).
During this period, many Xianbei people changed their surnames to Han surnames, which was the main reason why Li Fu changed his surname.
In 439, Li Fu was killed in the Northern Wei Dynasty's war to unify the north. Li Xian's ancestor must have settled down before that and changed his surname from Tuoba to Li.
The surname Li becomes a complicated message here.
What is interesting is that at that time, the northern ethnic minority Xijiasi also claimed to be descendants of Li Ling.
Today's archaeologists roughly organize this story into something like this: Wujie, Wuji, the predecessor of the Jurchens, the Jurchen tribe, also known as Privet.
The Wujii people were located to the east of Huhanxie Chanyu's sphere of influence.
At that time, it should be in the lower reaches of HLJ, Songhua River, and Mudanjiang river basins.
When Wujiu Commandery Chanyu was defeated and beheaded by Huhanxie Chanyu, Li Ling's son Tuoba escaped from the disintegrated Wujiu tribe.
Later, he "restored the Wujiu Commandery as Chanyu", and the time of failure is estimated to be in the second year of Wufeng, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty (56 BC).
Later, the descendants of Li Ling's son may have become Tuoba Tuiyin who fled into the Daxingan Mountains where Gaxian Cave is located.
Because Tuoba Tuiyin had a Han-Hungarian aristocratic background and extraordinary abilities, he won the respect of the Xianbei people.
After being elected in Gaxian Cave, he became the tribal leader of the Xianbei people and married a Xianbei woman. The descendants he gave birth to were named Tuoba.
At the same time, Li Ling was named Queen of Youxiao by the Xiongnu Chanyu, and assumed the leadership of the Jiankun area that had been surrendered by the Xiongnu at that time.
This shows that Xiugas clearly has the characteristics of being mixed with the yellow race.
From then on, the descendants of Yongas's sons and Tuoba's sons all took the surnames of their first two maternal ancestors as their surnames.
History is so "mixed" here that it's dizzying.
Li Xian must have the blood of the fusion of Han people and Huns.
This place in Guyuan can also be said to be the best proof of the integration of local ethnic groups and cultures at that time.
Traveling through time, the cultural relics unearthed from Li Xian's tomb have become a prestigious art treasure house on the Silk Road because of their commonality, connectivity, exchange and integration of multi-ethnic cultures.
These unearthed cultural relics contain both foreign elements from the West and the endless love and endless yearning for the civilization of the Central Plains of my country by ethnic minorities in our border areas. They have naturally become our common history.
As Guyuan, which "controls Wuyuan on the left, leads Lanhui on the right, supports eight counties, and is the key point of Wansan Town", its geographical location is very important and special.
Since ancient times, it has been the throat and important town from Guanzhong to the Western Regions beyond the Great Wall.
The northern route of the eastern section of the ancient Silk Road must pass through here. Qingshui River Valley and Mapingchuan connect Zhongwei and Yinchuan.
The First Emperor's western tour shocked the north, the Han Dynasty guarded the north to resist the Xiongnu, and the Ming Dynasty's nine-border stronghold guarded the inside and outside of the Great Wall. These are important nodes and fortresses.
Culture is enriched by exchanges and colorful by blending.
Judging from the map, Xia Ning's two-pointed terrain looks very much like a pot-bellied and profound traveler.
The Silk Road in its body is like a dense collection of blood vessels, which together form the beauty of fusion, enriching itself and conveying the spirit to others.
When the Silk Road became a vast space over time, it not only recorded our past, but also revealed our present and future.
Chen Wenzhe doesn't know what the future will be like, but he can definitely know what the past was like.
The ancient Silk Road was obviously a treasure trove for him.
Groups of tomb robbers in the country would never let go of this treasure house, so he was able to discover the cellars hidden by the tomb robbers.
If it turned out that so many treasures were discovered, Chen Wenzhe would definitely turn into a tomb robber and go to rob them.
But now that he has ascended, he can only go for archeology.
For example, that gilt silver pot is of extremely high value for the study of ancient culture, or the fusion of ancient Chinese and Western cultures.
However, the real market value is not necessarily high. After all, it is just a silver pot with an exotic style.
However, it actually came from a cellar and was seen by Chen Wenzhe, so its value cannot simply be measured by market price.
This thing itself is very famous, and with a legendary experience, it will naturally become a treasure that can attract the attention of the world.
Once it was stolen and hidden, and the other time it was discovered by Chen Wenzhe. These are two legendary experiences!
The things in the cellar are different from those unearthed from the ancient tombs, and they are also different from the ones discovered by Chen Wenzhe.
In archeology, hoarded remains are a special kind of remains that are different from residential sites, handicraft workshop sites, military sites and religious sites.
It is a way for people to deliberately hide valuable treasures and artifacts during emergencies.
It was dug and buried in a very hasty situation.
There are cellars built with bricks and stones, and some are directly buried in pits.
Whether in a cellar or a pit, buried treasures and artifacts are often placed in metal or ceramic jars.
The location of the cellars is hidden, and most of them have left their residences, while some are buried on the spot within their residences.
Since the remains in the cellar are small and leave no traces on the ground, they are discovered by accident.
The original stratigraphic superimposition relationship on the cellar body is easily destroyed, making it difficult to determine the burial age.
Most of the buried relics were the most valuable at that time.
Some of the rich kiln treasures have become sensational new archaeological discoveries.
For example, in the winter of 1967, a Song Dynasty hoard was discovered in Xisai Mountain, Huangshi, Beihu.
In the rectangular (6.85x3-2.85x1.44 meters) kiln, more than 220,000 kilograms of copper coins were buried.
From the "Banliang" of the Western Han Dynasty to the "Chunhu Yuanbao" of the 12th year of Chunhu (1252) of Emperor Lizong of the Southern Song Dynasty, more than 99% are coins of the Song Dynasty, which is the largest hoard discovered so far.
According to documentary records, in the twenty-sixth year of Wanli of the Ming Dynasty (1598), the seventh year of Chongzhen (1634), the eighth year of Qianlong (1743), five times in 1944 and 1955, hoards of copper coins and silver collars were discovered in Xisai Mountain.
The discovery in 1967 was the sixth time, and it is estimated that it was probably a coin stored in the Xisaishan military warehouse after Chunyou of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Another example is the Tang Dynasty cache discovered in Hejia Village, Chang'an City, in October 1970. It is located in Xinghuafang, Chang'an, Tang Dynasty, and contains more than 1,000 relics.
These treasures are divided into two pottery urns, mainly gold and silver vessels (271 pieces).
Others include gold and jade ornaments, silver collars, silver cakes, silver plates, copper coins, Roman gold coins, Sasanian silver coins, as well as a small amount of agate, crystal, glassware, amber, cinnabar and other medicinal stones, gold and silver utensils and ornaments.
These things all have the same characteristic, that is, they are exquisite. They can be called the most important gold and silver artefacts of the Tang Dynasty discovered in recent years.
The relics in this cellar must be from the middle to late Tang Dynasty, but the specific age of burial is difficult to guess.
