On the same day, Shenyang Museum and Xinle Site Museum jointly exhibited national first-class cultural relics, China's earliest wood carving - carbonized wood carving artwork, commonly known as "sunbird", the cultural relics have rarely been publicly exhibited in the past, this time only for one week. According to reports, this wood carving artwork was charred due to a fire at the site of the house that year, and was preserved underground for more than 7,000 years without disturbance, and has been preserved to this day, which is a treasure that can be encountered and unattainable in archaeological history. At the same time, the fine cultural relics of the Zhengjiawazi Bronze Shortsword Tomb unearthed by archaeological excavations in 1965 and never exhibited for more than half a century were collectively staged for the first time, showing the world the style of the Northeast bronze shortsword culture. The epitaph of Cao Xueqin's ancestor Cao Fu was exhibited for the first time.
According to reports, the vast majority of cultural relics in Shenyang Museum come from the excavation results of the Shenyang Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology for more than 70 years. According to the degree of rarity, it is proposed that the Liao Dynasty gold mask, white glazed black color plum bottle and white glazed brown color plum bottle are the "three treasures of the town hall" of the museum. Among them, the pattern on the white glazed black color plum bottle is the first case of the autumn bowl on the utensils, which can be called the only product in the sea.
In order to make the cultural relics "alive", Shenyang Museum has worked hard to achieve "seeable, audible, touchable and interactive". In the exhibition design, a number of immersive experience cultural equipment technology is adopted, and the screenless suspension display technology and spatial positioning technology, alpha display technology, 1:1 real-person ratio holographic display technology and historical figure resurrection technology are widely used to show the living conditions of people in the historical period for the audience, so that cultural relics can interact with the audience.
