Scenery of Chengcheng Mountain
In August 2019, the launch ceremony of Kunlun Qiu (Jiecheng Mountain), the holy land of Chinese civilization, was held in Beijing. Hua Renkui, a researcher at the Northeast Institute of Geography of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Jin Ronghua, professor of the Chinese Culture University in Taiwan, joined hands with scholars on both sides of the Straits, such as Scholars on both sides of the Strait, to conduct field research and painstaking research in Yangcheng County, Jincheng City, Shanxi Province, for 17 years, and to compare and corroborate the multi-level wenwang, diwang, and fame of Kunlun Qiu, and came up with the above exposition to explore the beginning of Chinese civilization.
As early as the beginning of the 21st century, researchers at the Northeast Institute of Geography of the Chinese Academy of Sciences interpreted the 1:35,000-scale map of Yangcheng in the Atlas of Shanxi Province, and found that the geographical landform of Yancheng Mountain in Yangcheng County resembled a dragon-shaped mountain lying in the northwest of Wangwu Mountain and facing north and west. Its head, eyes, horns, whiskers, neck, body, feet, claws, and tail come to life. Therefore, the 1:50,000 scale topographic map and the US satellite remote sensing image were used for verification, and the academic view of "ancient Kunlun Hill is Yangcheng Jiecheng Mountain" was demonstrated, so that the ancient historical and cultural context of Jiecheng Mountain was gradually clarified.
In December 2020, the 2020 Cultural Annual Conference of Kunlun Qiu (Jiecheng Mountain), the holy land of Chinese civilization, was held in Jincheng. Experts and scholars from more than 20 research institutions and more than 10 provinces and cities, including the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the Chinese Pre-Qin History Society, the Institute of Ethnic Literature, and the Institute of Geology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, gathered together to study kunlun qiu culture and explore the origin of Chinese civilization. Experts and scholars gave speeches from the perspectives of archaeology, ancient book records, folklore deduction, topography and geomorphology, etc., and most scholars believe that 8,000-6,000 years ago, there were indeed ancient human beings living in The Jiancheng Mountain; the Shang Tang culture and the Fuxi culture have extensive and profound historical origins; and the Kunlun Qiu (Jiecheng Mountain) culture is an indispensable part of China's excellent traditional culture. These have broadened the development ideas and provided strong support for the research and exploration of Kunlun Qiu (Jiecheng Mountain) culture and the integrated development of culture and tourism.
At the meeting, Yao Xun, deputy secretary of the Jincheng City CPC Committee and secretary of the Yangcheng County CPC Committee, said that Kunlun Qiu (Jiecheng Mountain) is an ancient famous mountain that contains too many codes for the origin of Chinese civilization, and it is a major historical topic to reveal the cultural connotation of Kunlun Qiu (Jiecheng Mountain). It is hoped that experts and scholars can guide the way for the cultural research of Kunlun Qiu (Jiecheng Mountain) and find the roots and cast the soul for the Chinese cultural vein.
To this day, the upper and lower levels of the Jiecheng Mountain can still be seen in the Fuxi era to observe the heavens, the six peaks and gui tables that give the time to push the calendar, the cave niches inhabited by ancient humans, the prototype of the mountain that created the script, the flint stones that make fire, and the tianlong and earth dragon that deduce taiji gossip. With the continuous deepening of archaeological excavation, cultural research and tourism development of Jiecheng Mountain, the mystery of Jiecheng Mountain will be further unveiled, and the wonders of Jiecheng Mountain will be more displayed in front of the world.
In-depth research on Thermos culture
Ancient cultural resources are historical and cultural heritage worth cherishing, and are the unique local cultural business cards of Yangcheng, with unparalleled cultural charm. In addition to ancient cultural resources, Shang Tang culture is also a strong stroke in the history of Yangcheng, combined with the existing historical documents and the clear context of the remains, as well as the continuous archaeological discoveries, over the years, domestic history, cultural relics experts and scholars have carried out in-depth investigation and research.
In 2012, the first National Shang Tang Culture Academic Seminar organized by the Pre-Qin History Society of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences was held in Yangcheng. Experts and scholars from all over the country and Taiwan, after extensive research and demonstration, generally believe that Yangcheng is the center of ShangTang culture, and the famous historical event of "Tang Prayer Sanglin" occurred on the mountain of Jiancheng more than 3,000 years ago.
Since then, with the joint participation and promotion of experts and scholars on both sides of the Straits, the research on SenseTime culture has been continuously and deeply carried out, and new progress and discoveries have been continuously made.
At the 2018 National Fourth Yangcheng Shangtang Culture Academic Symposium, the view that "Shangtang Capital City is in the Yangcheng Wangqu Area" attracted great attention from the experts and scholars attending the meeting.
At the seminar, Li Jianmin, a researcher at the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, accurately identified a stone chime found near Mount Chengcheng. He believes that the stone chime is between beating and grinding, a relic of the early Shang Dynasty, and belongs to the Shang Tang Festival Heavenly Prayer Rain Ceremony Heavy Instrument, which provides important physical evidence for the Shang Tang Analysis City Mountain Sanglin Prayer Rain. The Tang Temple in Yangcheng is the largest and most densely distributed in the country, and there are almost all Tang Temples in the territory of Ancient Yangcheng, reaching more than 380 at the most, reflecting the close relationship between Yangcheng and Shangtang Capital.
The 3rd National SenseTime Academic culture seminar
The Qing Tongzhi edition of the Yangcheng County Chronicle records that Yangcheng "Shang, the domain of Jizhou, is said to be the interior of Qi, known as Sanglin, where Tang prayed for rain." This sentence contains three meanings: the Yangcheng area belonged to the Jizhou area in the Shang Dynasty; according to legend, Yangcheng was the land of Gyeonggi in the Shang Tang period; Yangcheng was called Sanglin at that time, and it was the place where the Shang Tang prayer rain occurred.
In the Chengtang Temple in Zhongzhai Village, Xihe Township, Yangcheng County, there is a stele rebuilt into a Tang Temple stele in the 39th year of the Ming Wanli Calendar, and the inscription records: "But Yuyang City is a secret city, and it is particularly en,000, so its territory is creating temples, painting statues, and enjoying its retribution at four o'clock in the spring and autumn." The general meaning is "only our Yangcheng area is close to the Shang tang bodu, and the favor of the shang tang king is particularly much", indicating that before the Ming Dynasty, the close relationship between the shang and tang and Yangcheng has been unanimously recognized by the government and the people.
In addition, the folk songs and drums, palace ruins, geographical features, and ancient place name information left in Yangcheng can fully prove that the shangtang capital is in Yangcheng.
