The so-called "people die for money, birds die for food", this sentence is really very reasonable, the tomb robbery industry can be said to have risen for thousands of years, although successive dynasties have been strictly prohibited, but so far can not curb this source, the reason is nothing more than that the tomb robbery this thing is indeed profitable, really either overnight rich, or arrested, waiting for trial.
Under normal circumstances, tomb robbers are a team to start work, it is difficult to complete a tomb excavation operation, but there are still many problems in gang operations, such as conflicts may occur because of property problems, and there are quite a few such things encountered in these years, such as the "Tomb of King Luzhu" in Qufu, and the tomb robbers have disagreed because of the distribution of property.
The tomb we are going to talk about today is a Tang tomb from a thousand years ago, the owner of the tomb is very honorable, is a princess of the Tang Dynasty, but in her tomb found a very strange corpse, it is actually sitting against the wall, and there is an axe next to him, what is his identity?
In the 1960s, the Shaanxi archaeological team excavated the tomb of Princess Yongtai, the daughter of Emperor Zhongzong of Tang, and he was very fond of, and later Princess Yongtai married Wu Yanji, the eldest son of Wu Chengsi, but unfortunately was severely punished for talking about Wu Zetian's internal affairs, her husband was killed by the staff, and Princess Yongtai died in childbirth.
After the death of Princess Yongtai, she was buried in Qianling by her father Li Xian, and people with such a noble status as Princess Yongtai naturally had countless treasures in the tomb to accompany them, and for thousands of years they were also harassed by countless tomb robbers.
At that time, the tomb of Princess Yongtai was surveyed to be very seriously damaged, the higher cultural relics department approved the excavation, fortunately the results are still good, although the tomb of Princess Yongtai was stolen very seriously, there were many pirate holes, but still in its tomb to clean up a large number of funerary products, such as murals, pottery figurines, wooden figurines, bronze, jade, gold, etc., about 1,000 pieces.
But just when the archaeological team excavated near the sixth patio, they found a robbery hole, which was very well beaten, and it can be concluded that this group of tomb robbers is not idle, and what surprises the experts even more is that a corpse was found at the entrance of the cave, which is still very strange, because it sits crooked against the wall of the cave entrance, and there is an axe next to him, and there are many gold and silver jewels around him, and experts can almost conclude that it should be one of the tomb robbers.
Later, this corpse was pulled to the Xi'an Cultural Relics Bureau for testing, and the result was that many wounds cut by axes were found on its body, and its scene can be imagined to be very tragic, and finally this corpse was identified as a member of the tomb robbers, and the cause of death was probably hacked to death by his companions, which is estimated to be a problem of property distribution.
