The Manzi Cave in the Bashu region is widely distributed in the Min River. Fujiang, JialingJiang, Tuojiang River basin, now the people call him Manzi Cave. I've seen a lot of senior experts, folk scholars, talking about what these holes are all about. 1. Some people say it is a tomb.
2. Some people say it is a house.
3. Some people say that it is a strategic material reserve.
……
Can make up countless dreams.
I will only explain the following explanations:
The Eastern Han people regarded death as life, built cliff tombs on the mountain, the three kingdoms and two Jin wars at the end of the Han Dynasty, the population of Shudi decreased, li Shi, the emperor of Sichuan during the Sixteen Kingdoms period, introduced barbarians into Shu, and the barbarians did not civilize to take the Han Dynasty cliff tomb as their residence, and hundreds of years later, they arrived in the Tang Dynasty. Barbarians and Han Chinese intermarriage developed, became a civilized famous ethnic group, forgot the history of ancestors living in the cliff tomb, but also know that there were people living there, so from the Tang Dynasty it was called Barbarian Cave!
Man, as long as the inheritance of written culture is missing, as long as two or three generations (about a hundred years) can forget their ancestors completely! For example, today's Ryukyuan people, if they are not independent, will definitely quickly forget that they were originally members of the Chinese character cultural circle!
