China is one of the four ancient civilizations, with a long history and culture, and there have been many myths and legends, such as Nüwa supplementing the heavens, Kwa Father Day by Day and Fuxi Bagua. Because the history is too long, the truth of many things cannot be studied, and some ancient cattle people have been considered mythological figures by experts. Today's xiaobian told you about this big bull, because the combat effectiveness is too strong, it has been asserted by some experts, she does not exist at all, who is this person?
Woman Hao, the wife of Wu Ding, the monarch of the Shang Dynasty, is known as the first female military commander in the history of our country. According to the oracle bone records, women can fight good battles, almost invincible, personally led a large army to conquer many surrounding countries, experienced nearly a hundred large and small battles, are complete victories, which is very rare in history.
It is precisely because she is too strong that she has created many mythical war miracles, although there are some historical records, but many experts have questioned, is there really such a heroine in history? Is she a mythical figure? It wasn't until a cemetery was excavated that the truth of the matter surfaced.
In the 1980s, an ancient tomb was discovered in Anyang City, Henan Province, and it is also the only well-preserved Shang Dynasty royal tomb in Yin Ruins. According to archaeologists, this is a well-known cemetery that many experts have questioned as a mythical figure. A large number of bronzes have been excavated from the tomb, many of which are engraved with inscriptions, recording many deeds of women.
According to the inscription, the woman was ordered to fight on the battlefield many times, and made great contributions to the expansion of the territory of the Shang Dynasty. What is even more frightening is that she also holds the power of sacrifice and divination, which is very powerful for the Shang Dynasty, which was superstitious and ghostly at that time, and even the monarch Wu Ding was a little afraid of her.
In the tomb of the woman, two large copper cymbals were also found, each weighing nearly 20 kilograms, and according to the oracle bone records, it can be determined that they are the weapons used by the woman before her death. In the Shang Dynasty, the bronze cymbal was a symbol of royal power and military power, and we can imagine the cool and heroic posture of women galloping on the battlefield in those years.
The excavation of the tomb of Nühao confirmed that Nühao was a heroine of the Shang Dynasty, she did have a very strong fighting force, not a mythical figure that some experts think, which is simply a face punch.
Xiaobian believes that although some places of the ancients may be a little exaggerated, not all exaggerations are myths. Someone once joked that "Westerners like to think of myths as history, but we think of real history as myths." "Although this is a joke, it also contradicts some objective facts, what do you think?"
