Archeology found that the owners of tombs No. 19 and 26 were both women. Judging from the arrangement and scale of the three large tombs, they should be the tombs of Duke Rui and his two wives.
In 2006, after several months of excavation and cleaning of Zhongjiang's tomb, a total of 571 pieces of jade of various types were unearthed, extending from the neck of the tomb owner to his knees. The funerary objects were as rich as the monarch, and even surpassed the monarch in some aspects.
, the pieces of jade that can be called rare treasures continue to challenge the imagination of archaeologists and historians.
A set of bronze vessels used by Jiang during his lifetime, including a Shang-style square tripod and a hollowed-out ring with short legs, are unearthed for the first time in China; a set of jade pendants includes a human and dragon sculpture, and the human hair bundle has 5 millimeters per millimeter.
Each root is never intertwined, and it can be called a representative work of the superb jade craftsmanship in the middle Western Zhou Dynasty.
The jade handle is composed of 189 agate beads, 16 jade shells, 16 jade silkworms, 48 jade turtles, 8 jade beads, and 4 glass beads. It is the most complex and luxurious two-week jade handle known in my country.
This was also the first time that the Rui Kingdom was found and the general scope of the Bin Kingdom was determined. North of Hancheng, the Yellow River exited the Shanxi-Shaanxi Grand Canyon from the Yumen Gate, and suddenly expanded from less than a hundred meters wide to several kilometers. The soil of the Loess Plateau
It often collapses downward with the swing of the water flow.
According to data from the Yellow River Hydrology Department, over the past 100 years since the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty alone, the Yellow River bed has expanded by more than 100 meters toward the city of Han. Archaeologists have also discovered tombs in the gully south of Liangdai Village, but they have been washed away by the river.
, there are not many left, and it is estimated that at least 70 tombs have been washed away in the past two to three thousand years.
It is recorded in "Historical Records" that the ancients picked up bronze vessels with the inscription "Rui" on the banks of the Yellow River. Although the tomb is missing, where is the capital of Rui State?
Han Kongque had read an analysis report provided by Bai Xiaoyi. Some experts had speculated that the capital of the Rui Kingdom was built on the bank of the Yellow River. As the banks of the Yellow River collapsed, it disappeared into the surging Yellow River.
However, in September 2009, the Hancheng archaeological team conducted an investigation in the northwest direction of the Liangdai Village site. In an area of 300 acres about 2 kilometers away from the tomb area, they found the foundations of large ancient buildings, and they were "
"Typical standard", architectural ruins of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
In addition, many pottery sherds and other practical utensils from the Western Zhou Dynasty were discovered, as well as strips of stone with obvious traces of dripping water. A small river originating from Liangshan flows through this place, with sufficient water supply. This may be where the capital of Rui State is located.
According to archaeological discoveries over the past few years, Rui State has a history of about 400 years, of which the city in Han lasted for about 200 years. This corrects the geographical location of Rui State recorded in historical records.
The discovery of the Rui State Cemetery in Liang Dai Village is the first time that the remains of the Rui State have been excavated in my country. The unearthed systematic bronzes, especially the discovery of the bronzes with inscriptions of "Rui Gong" and "Rui Prince", have made the cultural connotation of the Rui State more important. , lineage, land status and other major issues are easily solved, and their mysterious veil is unveiled.
According to archaeologists in Shaanxi and Western Shaanxi, determining the location of Rui State also provides a basis for finding the capital of Liang State that has been famous for thousands of years but has not been seen before.
According to the records of "(Qin Dynasty)": "In the first year of De (Qin Dynasty), Liang Bo and Rui Bo came to the court", "In the first year of Cheng Dynasty, Liang Bo and Rui Bo came to the court", which shows that the two countries have close relations and are not far apart.
In 2010, the archaeological team went to Tao Canal, more than 30 kilometers south of the village, to investigate and look for traces of the capital of the Liang Kingdom. There, they found two tombs that were "bigger than Ruihuan Cemetery", but they were both gone.
It has been visited by tomb robbers.
But Han Kongque believed that this should be the tomb of the king of Liang State, and the once huge capital of Liang State was nearby.
Seeing everyone thoughtful, Han Peacock smiled and stopped talking. Now that the house belonged to him, Han Peacock started looking around as the owner.
After looking through all the places he was interested in and having a good idea, Han Kongque carefully observed the layout of the house. After everything was clear to him, Han Kongque returned to the living room, which was already busy.
Got up.
Qin Mingyue lay down in front of the small bronze tripod with the word "Bing Jiang" engraved on it, looking at it without blinking. When Han Kongque came over, Qin Mingyue immediately said: "How much do you think the bronze tripod from the Western Zhou Dynasty is worth?"
"This is not necessarily true. If it is this Bin Jiang Ding, it should be no problem to sell it for thirty to fifty million. However, it is impossible to sell this kind of thing without having time to collect it." Han Kongque said with a smile.
"Why do you need this thing? It can't be used as food or water. If you leave it at home, you will be afraid of thieves." Qin Mingyue held the Jiangding Ding in both hands and said.
Liu Xu smiled and said: "It would make sense if I exchanged it for a lot of waste paper, or directly exchanged it for a string of numbers from the bank?"
"That's right, if you don't lack money to spend, it's better to keep things in your hands. The longer the antiques are kept, the more valuable they will be." Qin Mingyue figured it out as soon as she thought about it.
"Brother Han is extraordinary every time he takes action." Lin Youshan said.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "This is purely luck, and today's luck is not mine, but my wife's. If she hadn't discovered the Jade Pig Dragon in the antique city, I would never have come here."
Liu Xu said: "I just discovered the Jade Pig Dragon, but I didn't expect that I could find so many treasures through the Jade Pig Dragon. However, where did these things come from? They couldn't really be stolen from tombs, right?
"
Han Kongque said with a smile: "When I just entered the door, I saw the shovel behind the door. Although it has been deformed and modified, if you look carefully, you can still see that it is a Luoyang shovel.
Shovel, just for tomb robbers."
"Is that why you speculated that the owner of this family might have something good in his hands?" Qin Mingyue said.
Han Kongque shook his head and said: "Such a layout may be the layout of a con man. What really gave me an idea was the clay Buddha body. Although the statue was seriously damaged, it was obvious that it was
It's an old thing, and I definitely wouldn't have put it here in the first place."
"Then you can't be sure that the owner here has ever robbed a tomb!" Liu Xu said.
Han Kongque said: "The tomb robbing industry is generally divided into two factions, the north and the south. In the early years, the southern faction had a well-known senior named Zhang. There are legends that he was hiding in Yangcheng. By combining all kinds of intelligence, I can determine what is here.
Most of them should be genuine, even if I didn't identify them carefully, they shouldn't be much different."
"You mean the southern sect's eyes are wide open?" Zhao Dayou looked at Han Peacock in surprise.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "I said, but it's him. If he wasn't such a famous senior, how could I understand him so clearly?"
"That boy Zhang Cheng's grandfather is Tianyan Zhang? It's impossible, right?" Zhao Dayou said in surprise.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "Nothing is impossible in this world. Judging from the things here today, the possibility that Zhang Cheng's grandfather is a clairvoyant is still very high."
"Is Tianyan Zhang famous?" Liu Xu asked.
Han Kongque said: "It is very famous, especially in the 1980s, when domestic cultural relic smuggling was very rampant. In many places, almost every household was engaged in the tomb robbing industry. In that era when there were so many tomb robbers, there were not many people who could make a name for themselves.
, and this Tianyan Zhang is one of the most famous figures."
"Being called the Eye of the Sky, it seems that he is very good at finding cemeteries? However, such a person should be severely punished." Liu Xu said.
Han Kongque said: "The first citron will die first, and the first bird will be shot. Some people understand this truth, but more people don't. Obviously, this man who knows how to protect himself with clear eyes, although he is very good at finding the dragon's acupoints."
Strong, but never do anything outrageous.
Just like the Jade Dragon Pig and Binjiang Tripod we harvested this time, these things are obviously a pair, but after entering the ancient tomb, he only took out half of them, and they did not leave any traces. Even the archaeologists from that year
None of the personnel found any trace of the tomb being stolen. From this, we can also see how cautious he was."
"It's impossible for such a cautious person to get such a famous name as Tianyanzhang, right?" Yang Kun said.
Han Kongque said: "That's true. In the beginning, his reputation as a clairvoyant was only spread within a small area. The only people who knew him were his fellow villagers and friends. Others didn't know how powerful he really was.
The reason why he became famous later was entirely because he did a very sensational event. Since more than 20 years have passed since the incident, the specific reason is no longer clear. I just know that a group of people offended this clairvoyant person. Maybe
He was so offended, and this Heavenly Eye Zhang also played a cruel trick.
Legend has it that the group of people gathered together and formed a small village. The village was built on a dragon vein. Although the people living in the village did not become generals or generals, they all lived long lives, so the village was
It was a very famous longevity village back then.
But such a treasured land of Feng Shui was completely destroyed by God's Eye. Since then, the geology there has undergone fundamental changes. It used to be good weather every year, but then there was no harvest every year, and the elderly in the village began to die one after another.
Now, let alone the longevity village, that village has become a famous short-lived village.
More than ten years later, that is, two thousand years later, a capable man appeared in that village and asked people to investigate the events of that year. Only then did they learn some of the original story. Their village had indeed suffered great damage. The most obvious thing was that
It is the diversion of underground water sources.
Since the land in small mountain villages is relatively high, if the groundwater is diverted, it will be a trivial matter for the land in their village to dry up. The most serious thing is that without enough water sources, there will not be enough vegetation. In this way, every time it rains, not to mention saving rainwater, but also
The land in the village was washed away by the rain, and soil erosion was serious at will. If this vicious cycle continues, it is no wonder that the small mountain village is not unlucky."
"What does this have to do with the dragon veins? It's impossible that if the dragon veins are destroyed, there will be drought every year, right? This may also be due to weather and environmental protection." Qin Mingyue asked. r1152
