The mystery of the disappearance of the ancient city of Nya

The mystery of the disappearance of the ancient kingdom

After the 3rd century AD, the Jingzhi kingdom suddenly disappeared, and it was not until the beginning of the last century that Stein's discovery surprised the Jingzhiguo again. However, how did the Elite Nation disappear from history? Why is it buried in the rolling yellow sand? Why did the brilliant oasis become a ruin of death? Historians are puzzled by this. Many people believe that the reason why Nya was abandoned and buried in the sand sea was because the Nya people wantonly cut down trees and destroyed the ecological environment, so that the water source dried up, the wind and sand raged, the oasis disappeared, and finally it was submerged under the vast sea of sand.

Stein, the discoverer of the ancient city of Nyaya, once excavated a complete rectangular wooden jane in an official office, with the sealed mud intact, and the cover was still tied in good condition by the original rope, which was stacked in a secret room of the house at that time. Obviously, this is a batch of documents that have been consciously buried. Later research proved that it was an official document and an economic document. Perhaps the officials on the job intended to keep the documents there permanently. However, it seems that something unexpected has happened suddenly. Judging from the situation at that time, it was obvious that the owner of the document had to leave in a hurry, but he had the idea of returning. The fact that the burial was neither covered nor containerized to preserve the extremely valuable documents is in itself a clear indication of the haste of departure.

What happened that caused the owner to leave here in a hurry, still holding the idea of returning? Why didn't they return?

It is repeatedly mentioned in the wooden mule excavated at the site that the Nyaya kingdom has long been threatened and invaded by the Subic people from the southwest. The kingdom of Nya spent its last days in a premonition of great trouble. Could this emergency have been invaded by the Subicids?

Mu Mu's text indicates that the threat of the Subichi to the kingdom of Niya was deepening step by step, such as "the threat of the Subichi is very worrying, and Yu et al will conduct an inventory of the inhabitants of the city", "the existing people bring important news about the Subi attack", "the current and last news says that there is a danger from the Subic... Soldiers must go, no matter how many armies there are..." Obviously the Nyyars could not resist the attack of the mighty Subic.

Archaeologists, on this 1800-year-old slumber, saw the mansion surrounded by bones, various relics scattered inside, and the doors open or half closed. To

The urn where Lu Wen was stored was sealed and not read, and there was still a lot of food in the storage room, and even a strand of silk thread on the spinning wheel. All this seems to tell people that the kingdom of Nyaya suffered a terrible fatal blow after facing a long threat of human invasion, and even left no final written record. So, was it the sudden war that abandoned this oasis and forced the elites to migrate elsewhere?

This is possible. But, since it was a prepared retreat, why didn't the retreating people take away important official documents? Moreover, in the Nya ruins, there are no broken swords buried in the sand, and there are no traces of war with white bones all over the field, and all the excavated ancient corpses are calm and serene, buried with great gifts, and the funerary objects are abundant. Their tombs show the style of the Taiping Dynasty. All the house ruins are complete. They sit there neatly arranged, as if their masters had not gone far, and when the smoke cooker rose again, the cattle and sheep would rejoice again, and the laughter of the Nyaya children would once again fill the streets and village courtyards. If it is said that the essence is destroyed by war, how can we explain everything that is unreasonable?

It is also said that sperm extinction may be ruined by the deterioration of natural conditions. The Nya ruins are located in the north of the Niya River basin in Minfeng County, and the Niya River was a medium-sized river in the Taklamakan Desert region at that time, and the snow water flowing down from the Kunlun Mountains gave birth to the triangular oasis of the Niya River Basin, which became the basis for the reproduction of the elite countries in the western region for generations. The climate in the western region is unusually dry, the process of desertification is very rapid, and the rivers in it are often diverted or disappeared. If the Nya River in the nourishing green state changes its flow direction, or if the amount of water decreases, if the wind and sand interfere with the lives of the elite, then the jingling may indeed give up the land where they have lived for generations.

If the elite inhabitants really migrated en masse, where did they move? Archaeologists have found no clues, and the ancient script was lost after Nya abandoned it.

To this day, the origin of the Nyya is a mystery, and their whereabouts are still a mystery. The Jingzhi Country crossed like a meteor in the sky of history, leaving not much of a shadow.
