Do you know? We often say that there is no harm in buying and selling, this sentence is also used in the tomb robbery industry, it is precisely because cultural relics have been auctioned at high prices, which makes the tomb robbery industry prosperous for a long time, so that the tomb robbers destroy the integrity of each ancient tomb. Interests drive these tomb robbers to make a quick and accurate judgment of the ancient tomb, basically every time archaeologists find an ancient tomb, they can see the traces of its theft, especially some ancient tombs with status or rich families, and it is also a place frequented by these tomb robbers.
Let's start with a brief introduction! Although the tomb robbers and the archaeological team also went to the tombs to conduct "research", the archaeological team's approach was more appreciated, and the behavior of the tomb robbers was despised. I believe that the reason is also clear to everyone, because the archaeological team entered the tomb for scientific research, and the items in the tomb will be treated cautiously and carefully, while the tomb robbers only have the gold and silver treasures buried in their eyes, just to satisfy their own selfish desires, and sweep away valuable items. Next, Xiaobian will take you to understand an ancient tomb, which was also "robbed" by stolen tomb thieves.
That's right! This tomb is the tomb of Zeng Houyi, who later shocked the archaeological community, the owner of the tomb is zeng guojun, from the tomb unearthed more than 15,000 precious cultural relics, the most eye-catching of which is a set of chimes with a total weight of 2567 kg, and this is the famous national heavy instrument "Zenghou Yi chimes". This set of chimes, the wide range of sound, the beauty of the sound, the world's rare, worthy of the reputation of "the heavy instrument of the country".
In fact, when excavating the tomb, experts found that the tomb was basically empty, because the tomb robbers had already looted one step ahead of the others, but the remaining pieces of scattered pottery that had no value were still seriously studied by archaeologists out of professionalism. Princess Li Li of Changle was the eldest daughter of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, and when she was eight years old, Li Shimin gave her the title of "Changle" with great respect, and then grew up under the emperor's favor. After growing up, Princess Changle became more and more beautiful, very beautiful, quite a princess. Later, when it was time to talk about marriage, the emperor promised her to his cousin Changsun Chong.
All in all, in this secret chamber, the archaeological team found a very large stone rafter and found 160 pieces of Tang Sancai with the latest age here. If it were not for Li Han's special structural design of his ancient tomb, it is estimated that more than a hundred precious cultural relics would now also fall into the hands of tomb robbers.
