According to historical records, in the north of Hubei is the source of prehistoric farming civilization, perhaps for this reason, so that this has always been a must for the warriors, can be described as a drum of war, but also do not know why there are many cultural relics here, but to say that hubei of these cultural relics are the most noteworthy, that is also the tomb of Zeng Houyi, this tomb let the archaeologists at that time directly call the tomb owner inhumane, what is going on?
In February 1978, a radar repair office of the Wuhan Air Force in Suixian County expanded its factory in the area of Dongtuanpo in The Drum Dun, so it planned to build a factory on a hill on the outskirts of Suixian County, where it was opened to blow up stones, but in this red sandstone exploded a large brown soil layer, which made the staff at that time have to suspect that under this soil layer is likely to be an ancient tomb.
To this end, it was reported to the relevant departments, and those archaeologists formed a team after hearing such news, came here to observe, and then after a series of preparations, archaeologists began to drill and excavate the tomb, but in the observation found that the tomb covers an area of 220 square meters, and the single rafter room where the coffin is placed is 6 times that of the Mawangdui Han Tomb, which looks like a tomb of extremely high specifications.
Experts after excavation finally entered the tomb, but the helpless thing is that this tomb has been submerged by groundwater, has long become a water tomb, the cultural relics inside many people have been soaked in the water, and later after cleaning, in this tomb a total of more than 15,000 pieces of ceremonial utensils, musical instruments, lacquered wood utensils, gold and jade, weapons, carriages and horses and bamboo Jane, a total of 6239 bronzes alone, can be described as extremely rich.
Among the cultural relics unearthed in these excavations there is such a cultural relic, where there are 28 copper dragons, 32 copper cockroaches (hornless dragons) and thousands of cockroaches (small snakes) on top of the artifacts, and under the disc is an inscription: Zeng Houyi as the end of holding, but under these B characters, there are several words, after expert research confirmed that these words are "Zeng Hou You as the end of holding", it seems that the owner's tomb has understood, this is the tomb of Zeng Houyi.
However, the most eye-catching thing in these tombs is not these cultural relics, but the first scene found by archaeologists when they entered the tomb, floating 23 coffins on the water, after opening the coffin with a crane, archaeologists saw a shocking scene, that is, the age of the remains in the tomb is not very large, after research, it was found that most of their ages are between 13 and 25 years old, and they are still women, the moment of integrity and youth, but let Zeng Houyi kill like this, it is simply inhuman.
Although there is not much record of the matter about Zeng Houyi in the historical data, but from the tomb found that he is a man, the copper plate should have been the object of his grandfather Zeng Houyi, but he erased his grandfather's name and engraved his own name, such an act was enough to give him a big filial piety notoriety at that time, and also let the teenage girl be buried, which can also be seen that he also seems to have a lack of human morality.
