After the excavation of the Mawangdui Han Tomb, it has attracted the attention of the world, and the archaeological community has also obtained more valuable information. At the same time, the owner of the Mawangdui Han Tomb is also known to the world, she is Mrs. Xin Chai, but with the passage of time, the controversy about the Mawangdui Han Tomb has also begun to arise, of which the name of Mrs. Xin Chai is the focus of the controversy. Some historians believe that Mrs. Xin Chai's name is a complete misreading, and her name should be "avoided", so what is the truth, and why is there such a misreading?
At present, archaeologists have let people see the original appearance of Mrs. Xin Chai through restoration, and mrs. Xin Chai's noble temperament has also been admired by the world, and at the same time, people have also learned how the living conditions of aristocratic women were in that era. But at the same time, many scholars believe that Mrs. Xin Chai's name is actually wrong, because archaeologists determined the name of the tomb owner through a seal. The inscription on the excavated seal should be "concubine avoidance", but due to the misreading at that time, "concubine avoidance" was regarded as "concubine Xinchai". In fact, there are only two words on the unearthed seal, that is, "concubine avoidance", so The name of Lady Xin Chai should be "avoid" instead of "Xin Chai".
After this statement was produced, it also caused a great shock at that time, after all, people have recognized the name of Mrs. Xin Chai, and both the media and the museum recognize her name as Mrs. Xin Chai, so the name "avoid" is bound to cause a commotion. In fact, this phenomenon does not need to be exaggerated, because posterity in the archaeological research of cultural relics, there will often be errors, because in the archaeological process of incomplete information, it is easy to cause misreading, some even serious errors, but after the continuous improvement of the data, these problems will be solved, will also give more reasonable answers and basis. The misreading of Mrs. Xin Chai can be seen as the result of the continuous improvement of archaeological work, and it is only the wrong name that has caused too much damage or loss.
More importantly, the excavation of Mrs. Xin Chai's mausoleum has brought more information to the archaeological community in China, which has played an incomparable role in the advancement of archaeological work, and has also made the progress of archaeological work faster, showing the wisdom of the ancients to the world. Moreover, many film and television works about Mrs. Xin Chai have also been launched, enriching people's horizons and giving the world a more in-depth understanding of the life and humanistic atmosphere of the Han Dynasty, and these important contributions are more meaningful than the determination of Mrs. Xin Chai's name.
