The matter of robbing tombs is indeed infuriating, in modern china we do not know how many tombs have been stolen, and many of them are very precious, countless cultural relics lost overseas, think about it is painful!
Especially in the 80s of the last century, when many people began to do whatever it took to get rich, many people began to steal tombs and then sell cultural relics overseas, not knowing how much cultural relics and property were lost.
Where in China are the most ancient tombs? That is undoubtedly Xi'an, Shaanxi, after all, it is the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, in addition to Baoji is also very much, those years have dug out countless cultural relics, especially bronzes, Baoji is even known as the "land of bronzes"!
This is not in the mid-1970s, when a bronze cellar was excavated in a small village in Fufeng County, Baoji City, which was later known as Zhuangbai No. 1 Cellar.
At that time, a production team member was leveling his family's land, but he did not expect to dig a big pit because of it, at first he was naturally very surprised, thinking in his heart is there any treasure under the big pit? Then he began to dig, only to find that the bottles and cans inside were densely packed, and he knew that these must be cultural relics.
Fortunately, this villager is an honest man, and the cultural relics publicity work in those years is still in place, so he chose to immediately report to the local cultural relics bureau of Baoji, and it was not long before the archaeological team came to the scene, and then began a series of exploration work, which confirmed that the big pit here is actually a cellar from ancient times, that is, Zhuangbai No. 1 cellar.
But the surprise is more than this, archaeologists decided to continue to start archaeological exploration here, hoping to find more surprises, did not expect that luck really came, soon the archaeological team found a hole in Zhuangbai Village, and this cave entrance is actually directly connected to an ancient burial chamber, which is really no effort at all, the great luck is coming.
In this way, the survey of this ancient tomb also began, and the result was that a very mysterious oracle bone was found in the burial chamber, and the most exciting thing for archaeologists was undoubtedly the few character inscriptions engraved on the body of this oracle bone, that is, "Zhou Gong".
This almost made the experts sure that this was the Zhou Gong Family Tomb Group, and to be honest, the archaeological team was collectively immersed in an atmosphere of extreme joy at that time, after all, the Zhou Cemetery was very remarkable.
By the way, here is still to introduce the next Zhou Gong, the fourth son of Zhou Wen Wang Ji Chang, the younger brother of Zhou Wu Wang Ji Fa, who has assisted the Wu King many times, and he is also a famous politician and thinker in Western Zhou, the founder of the Confucian school, and the historical scholars' exploration of zhou gong is indeed very much, I did not expect that this time I was actually found clues by the archaeological team of Baoji.
However, in the subsequent archaeological excavations, archaeologists found a painful phenomenon, that is, the cultural relics in the tomb were almost non-existent, and many modern objects were found in the corridor of the tomb, including flashlights, walkie-talkies, mineral water bottles and so on.
What does this mean? There are definitely tomb robbers who have patronized in advance, which is why archaeologists are sad.
