First, a mansion was found in the mountains of Beijing
In the 1980s, China was in the golden age of reform and opening up, and more and more people began to live a wealthy life. At the same time, the continuous improvement of science and technology has improved the level of archaeological research in China. Based on this environment, more and more ancient civilization sites have been excavated and discovered, as if history is repeating itself again and again.
Beijing's Yanqing County is a remote town, the ancient mountain is deserted, and all that remains is a dense forest. There is a house built on a cliff on Jundu Mountain, which looks like a mansion in the distance. The local old people also gave him a particularly interesting name - Yamen.
As soon as you hear about it, you can see that it is definitely not a good place. Whenever night falls or late at night, there will be a terrifying roar or a mournful cry in the gate, which is creepy and creepy. Neighbors around them did not dare to go up the mountain at night, and some people also saw the so-called ghost fire in their yard, which was said to be colorful.
2. Archaeological research work is carried out
After receiving the report from the masses, the relevant departments quickly set up a special group and began to carry out in-depth archaeological research on this area. At the beginning, they conducted a scientific survey of the mansion for 4 weeks, and after surveying and identifying, it should belong to the ancient ruins from 1500 to 2000 AD, which has a very high archaeological value.
The group continued to dig with curiosity, walked into the interior of the gate, and was shocked to find many rare treasures, which were strangely shaped and completely different from today's jewelry, but they were not inferior. In addition, the local residents rumored that these relics may be the funeral relics left by the Chongzhen Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so could the people living here be descendants of the Ming Dynasty imperial family?
However, with the deepening of archaeological work, the claim of descendants of the Ming Dynasty has been overturned. According to yamashita villagers, archaeologists have sensed that there may be an unknown world hidden under the vast underground, and perhaps this is the key to truly solving the mystery. Will the underground world be a world full of harmony?
The answer is obviously no, after the archaeologists dug up the ground, they unsurprisingly saw a pile of white bones, which were later identified as human bones by DNA testing. Obviously, this place was once a place where a group of people lived, and in the course of historical development, somehow it suddenly perished?
Third, the ancient "Yamen" may have been the residence of ethnic minorities
When the bones were first found, many villagers thought that these should be children who died prematurely, but they attracted the suspicion of experts, and archaeologists brought the found bones back to the institute and made scientific identifications. Experts found that the bones were not those of children who died prematurely but of adults, but a group of adult dwarfs who were only about one meter tall.
But the experts' skepticism didn't end there, they asked bigger questions. The question is how did the dwarves come to settle down on this mountain? So the research staff began a new round of consultation work without stopping, they went through a large number of historical books and related documents, and finally found useful information.
Some ancient documents record that one to two thousand years ago, an ethnic minority has lived here. In addition, it is not difficult to see that their ethnic minorities are prominent and have a huge family property. According to archaeologists, the vast majority of the excavated artifacts are bronze artifacts and none of them belong to iron, so it can be judged what period it is.
In the middle and late Tang Dynasty, an ethnic minority called the Xi ethnic group settled in The Prefecture for a long time. And Fengzhou is today's Yanqing area of Beijing. Experts explain that the Xi people have long existed in the history of the mainland, they have already had their footprints during the Shang Dynasty, and by the Tang Dynasty, the activities of the Xi people have become more and more frequent, and they have been migrating from the northeast to the Beiping area.
The Xi people mainly hunt animal husbandry, often hunting various animals on their own territory to eat as food. In addition, they often unite to manage various livestock industries, gradually expanding the scope of livestock breeding and the types of livestock. Animal husbandry not only achieved the problem of food and clothing, but also increased a certain income, and is a very intelligent ancient ethnic minority.
Experts unanimously identified the ancient ruins on Beijing's cliff hills as the site of a small number of Ethnic Xi tribesmen. The activities of the Xi increased close contacts with ethnic minorities in the Central Plains, further consolidating the prosperous commercial scene of the Tang Dynasty. Finally, there are different theories about the specific cause of their death.
The development of Chinese history by ethnic minorities
Ethnic minority culture is an indispensable part of Chinese history, and it has important practical significance for the development of Chinese history. The wisdom and insight of ethnic minorities can be reflected in the fields of economy, politics, culture and science and technology. It has a role in promoting national unity and consolidating the territory of the motherland.
The Chinese national culture is a national culture with a long history, which is jointly created by the Han people and a small number of people. It is precisely the existence of ethnic minority culture that will make the Chinese national culture become brilliant and brilliant. In addition, the people of ethnic minorities do not blindly follow or be superstitious, dare to put forward new cultural ideas, and strive to create new things, which is a symbol of social progress.
In China, the Xi people are a little-known minority, but like other ethnic minorities, they have made their own unique contribution to the civilization of China and all mankind. The development of history is forward, today's Chinese nation is more united and unified, 56 nationalities have a common language, a common cultural foundation, and make unremitting efforts to achieve the great rejuvenation of the motherland.
5. Summary
China's history and culture have a long history, and many ancient sites have been discovered with the continuous progress of archaeological work, which has attracted the attention of the world. A site discovered on the cliffs of Beijing in the last century, which has been confirmed by researchers to be the place where ethnic minorities lived, undoubtedly shows that ethnic minority culture has been an indispensable part of Chinese culture thousands of years ago. The ancient Chinese people with hard work and wisdom have nurtured one side of the water and soil, and their activities and behaviors are strong evidence of history. To this day, minority culture should still be inherited and carried forward so that people all over the world can truly understand it.
