When it comes to Gaoyou, many people may first think of salted duck eggs, because Master Wang Zengqi has introduced Gaoyou's salted duck eggs in detail in his articles, which are famous for people, and the delicious taste of the added things will eventually be remembered by the world.
The first Han tombs appeared
In fact, Jiangsu Gaoyou in the 70s and 1980s was also famous for minerals and ancient tombs, the spring breeze of reform and opening up in 1980 quickly blew all over the land of China, And Gaoyou in Jiangsu Province was rich in local mineral resources, resulting in an extremely developed local mining industry.
Mining refers to the mining of naturally occurring minerals such as coal and minerals, crude oil or natural gas, including underground or above-ground mining, and the famous city of Gaoyou in Jiangsu province has adapted to the trend of reform.
Vigorously develop its own economy according to local conditions, and greatly promote the development of Gaoyou's local cities through the blossoming of the mining industry.
Because the prevalence of the mining industry at that time led to a large number of employed people, which led to the wide area and scope of mining land.
However, Jiangsu originally belonged to the historical monuments above history, and a large number of ancient tombs were buried here. The extensive exploitation of the mine also happened to lead to the mining and excavation of a large number of graves.
As we all know, the location of a large number of tombs is located in the land of Zhong Lingqi, and such places happen to be mostly mineral mining places. The Han tombs, especially the cemeteries of the princes and nobles, are even more well-placed by the best feng shui masters to choose the positioning.
In 1979, a large cave was accidentally blasted out of a quarry in the Shenju Mountain Area of Huxi Tianshan Town, Gaoyou City. The blast led a large number of bluestone bricks to fly out, and the black hole towered there.
The workers couldn't resist their curiosity and poured in, but they accidentally found that it was an ancient tomb, which was exquisitely structured, lined with wood and stone, with a vast area and many burials. The workers hurriedly withdrew and reported it to the state.
The discovery of the tomb quickly attracted the attention of the government, and according to the preliminary investigation and inspection done by the archaeological experts sent from above, it was judged that this was an ancient tomb, and its area was so vast that its cemetery area was even eighteen times larger than the Mawangdui Han Tomb unearthed in Hunan.
The architectural structure and wood inside are all fine, and its handwriting and patterns can undoubtedly be judged to be a Han tomb.
In the archaeological community, there is a saying called: ten Han tombs and nine empty. The reason for this statement is that tomb robbery was rampant after the Han Dynasty, and even the official had such a tomb robbery team to drive.
This has led to a large number of cultural relics hidden under the dust of history, which is lamentable. Therefore, the excavation of the Tianshan Han Tomb led to the mad robbery of local residents, and caused a lot of damage to this tomb.
The archaeologists who arrived first at the time even invited the protection of the local police to ease the looting slightly.
Under the further study of archaeologists, the mystery of this ancient tomb has once again been unveiled a lot. It is the mausoleum of an ancient prince and nobleman.
It is the mausoleum of Liu Xu, the fourth son of Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty during the Western Han Dynasty. A true prince and nobleman.
Lord of the Han Tomb
Liu Xu, born with divine power and ability to resist Ding, according to historical records, he can fight with wild boars and is brave and fierce. However, because of its indulgence, it is extremely utilitarian.
Therefore, Emperor Wu of Han was not optimistic about him, so the throne did not remain with Liu Xu, but the marquis of his split land was also considered to be the end of benevolence and righteousness, but unfortunately Liu Xu never knew that he was satisfied.
A person's greatest sorrow is that he does not know where his strength lies and seeks the position he should have, and the I Ching has a cloud: "Virtue is not worthy, there will be disasters." Liu Xu, who never wanted to let go, did whatever he wanted to do.
When Emperor Han Zhao was in power, he used a witch curse to seize the throne, but with just the right luck, Emperor Han Zhao died shortly after.
Unfortunately, the throne had long been determined by the Mandate of Heaven, and did not belong to this indulgent King Guangling, Emperor Xuan of Han took the throne, and the deliberate Liu Xufu and the Chu king Liu Yanshou had an adulterous correspondence.
Later, the clan rebellion was implicated, and Emperor Xuan of Han remembered his blood and spared his name and rewarded his jewels, and only with gratitude did he let go of the rebellion, but soon after the cursed emperor's conspiracy was revealed, he felt ashamed in his heart, and in terror, he committed suicide and died.
This tomb is the joint burial tomb of Liu Xu and his wife, named tianshan Han tomb. The huge area and extensive display of objects all show the nobility of the tomb owner's status.
The tomb is full of fragrance, it is the aroma of the golden silk nan wood, a large number of golden silk nan wood divides the tomb into a large number of narrow rooms, the function of each room is not the same, there are living, bathing, etc., the division of labor is clear, each to the best of its ability. This special form of burial is the very famous "yellow intestine inscription" of the Han Dynasty.
According to historical records, this was a tomb that could only be used after the emperor's death, and only a very small number of people could be buried with the emperor's permission.
The splendor of the Han Tomb
856 pieces of golden silk nan wood are crisscrossed and interspersed, and the huge and exquisite structure shows this Han tomb vividly, blending the atmosphere and exquisiteness into one.
This fully demonstrates the superb traditional skills of the workers of the Han Dynasty, and more accurately shows the dignity of the identity of the tomb owner.
The value of golden silk nan wood is well known, because of its small quantity and wide range of wood roles, its price is extremely high, the price of a piece of wood is at least 2,000 to 3,000 yuan.
A large number of golden silk nan wood has undoubtedly pushed the value of this tomb to an extremely high, 564.56 cubic meters of rare wood, experts lamented: wood is worth 17 billion.
The breadth of the Han tomb has always been known to everyone, and the structure of the ancient tomb of the Han Dynasty is exquisite and expanded for both the past and the contemporary, and the Han Dynasty has indeed developed the tomb culture to a certain point.
This Tianshan Han tomb undoubtedly proves this point, since its discovery to archaeologists in the study and in-depth study and depth of time and again have been constantly attracted by the history and culture embodied in this cemetery and marveled by it.
Compared with more than ten tombs of the same type unearthed across the country, the excavated "yellow intestine inscription" type wooden rafters are rare and amazing works with large materials, fine production, strict structure and good preservation.
Its huge structure and quite delicate materials remind everyone of the greatness of the Han tomb again and again, and show the strength of the Han Dynasty to the world again and again.
Pure wood structure, exquisite and delicate architectural structure. The glorious status of the owner of the tomb is vividly displayed. Extremely valuable materials have been left for the archaeology of later generations.
The discovery of the Han Tomb in Gaoyou, Jiangsu Province, has undoubtedly added a stunning color to the history of Chinese culture and given future generations a valuable wealth.
