It is true that our current science and technology is very developed, and it is still moving forward, but even so, we must not look down on the ancients, thinking that the ancient people were very ignorant, such as what ideas, science and technology, etc., in fact, people with such ideas are very normal, in our cognition, science and technology is constantly progressing.
However, a lot of archaeological work has slapped these contemptuous views of the ancients, and many of the cultural relics we have unearthed today cannot be truly copied even by current technology, and even the so-called 3D printing technology cannot be started.
Let's talk about the ancient anti-embalming technology, speaking of embalming technology will naturally think of the thousand-year-old female corpse "Mrs. Xin Chai" unearthed in the tomb of Mawangdui Han, the excavation of Mrs. Xin Chai really alarmed the entire archaeological community, she has been able to preserve so well after more than 2,000 years, and so far can not uncover the real secret of why Mrs. Xin Chai can be kept so well.
But what we're going to introduce in this article is another magical item, which was also unearthed from an ancient tomb, and it is also one of the favorite foods in our lives, almost a necessity in our lives, but it has gone through more than 2,000 years without any decay.
It was in Hubei in 2014, when a middle school in Jingzhou was building a new address, but unexpectedly the tomb was accidentally excavated on the way to construction, and then it attracted the attention of the Jingzhou Cultural Relics Bureau.
Then naturally began to carry out an emergency protective excavation operation, did not expect that the tomb area here is very large, buried more than 400 tombs, including the Chu Han Tang Song Ming Dynasty tombs, and in one of them was named "Xia Jiatai Tomb No. 258" found a lot of accidents, and this accident is really let our descendants once again experience the ancients' kind of miraculous anti-embalming technology.
Just in the Tomb No. 258 of Xiajiatai, the archaeological team saw a silk coffin drapery cover in the inner coffin, and after opening it, there were actually 4 dark dried fish lying inside, which was actually dried fish, and from the look of view, it could not see the slightest decay, the only thing was to turn black, but its appearance was really easy to identify was dried fish, its size was almost the same size as our palms, and the fish scales were still covered on it.
In addition, 9 such dried fish were found in other places, and the preservation was extremely good, and then the experts naturally began to test the 13 dried fish, and the results showed that these dried fish were crucian carp, and should be wild.
But why in the end, why have these 13 "dried crucian carp" not decayed in the slightest after thousands of years? This problem has also plagued the experts until now, and finally it is really impossible to find the reason, but it can only be sealed first, and then placed in the museum for safekeeping.
