The title of "Tufuzi" must be very familiar to everyone, but this is the name of changsha, and generally we all say tomb robbers. Tomb robbers are people who specialize in robbing tombs for a living, the reason why the Changsha generation called "Tufuzi" is because Tufuzi did not make a living from tomb robbery at the beginning, but relied on selling yellow mud for a living, in the process of digging yellow mud to dig up the artifacts of ancient people, found profitable, simply do not sell yellow mud, specifically to steal ancient tombs.
The Chinese nation has a history of thousands of years, and its rich and colorful culture has created a variety of rare treasures, which have been passed down to today with the process of history, and some have disappeared into history. Most of the treasures left behind are excavated from ancient tombs, and the ancients attached great importance to their own tombs, and they believed that people could continue to enjoy the glory and wealth of their lives after death, so they attached great importance to the specifications of tombs and so on. Ancient emperors had higher requirements for their own tombs, the specifications of the emperor's tombs were very large, and there were many funerary products, and those funerary products became our historical relics today.
Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the tomb robbers excavated the ancient tombs very much, which is also the main reason for the loss of many ancient cultural relics in Our country, in the Changsha area can have the title of "Tufuzi" for the tomb robbers, which shows that there are many tomb robberies in Changsha, and even "Changsha ancient tombs, ten tombs and nine empty" such a statement, in these ancient tombs, the most often stolen is the Han tomb.
The Han Dynasty respected Confucian culture, and thick burial became the main funeral rite of the Han Dynasty, so in the Han tomb, there will generally be a large number of funerary products, which also attracts the attention of tomb robbers and prisoners; secondly, most of the tombs of the Han Dynasty have mounds, or ancestral halls, the target is too obvious, of course, it is easy to be stolen; moreover, the Han Dynasty has a history of about two thousand years, and there are many tomb robbers in the past dynasties. For various reasons, the Han tomb has become the most stolen tomb in history.
But there are also some Han tombs that have survived, such as the famous "Mawangdui Han Tomb", the Mawangdui Han Tomb was first discovered by archaeologist Xia Nai, but in the following twenty years, China's archaeologists did not excavate it until 1971, in the process of construction, often encountered landslides, after reporting, Mawangdui Han Tomb can be seen again.
It is said that the workers at that time drilled in with steel bars, and as a result, they spewed out choking gas from the air holes, and someone used fire to ignite the eruption, but unexpectedly a blue flame rose, and this mysterious blue flame made everyone feel uneasy, and the people talked about it.
After receiving the news, the relevant personnel of the museum immediately realized that this was an ancient tomb, inspected it, and applied to the state to excavate it, in the process of excavation, the expert found a circular robbery hole, extending down 17 meters, presumably this is the traces of the excavation of the "Tufuzi".
In the Han tomb excavated a lot of precious cultural relics, the owner of this tomb group must have been very rich before he died, because the specifications of this tomb are very large, in addition to precious utensils, but also found a mysterious "broken black box", at that time people did not care about this box, thinking that it was just an ordinary box, who did not expect that the "Tufuzi" excavated the Han tomb, but also found such a mysterious black box.
After opening, experts found that the black box contained lost ancient books, there were twenty-eight books in the box, and there were more than 200,000 words recorded on it, which was enough to fill some gaps in China's history, which can be called a national treasure level of cultural relics, it is a witness to the history of that period, no wonder archaeologists say: lost for two thousand years.
