What did ancient toilets look like?
The difficulty of going to the toilet has been the same in ancient times, especially in ancient times. In ancient times, a large pit was dug in the wilderness and squatted down. There are those who fall by the wind. According to the "Ten Years of Zuo Chuan and Chenggong", Jin Jinggong "went to the toilet and fell into a pawn". Ran Jing Gong fell to death, and the fecal soil suffocated Ye, and it was not clear.
Later generations built a house on it to shelter from the wind and rain. To Han, there are "toilets". There is a pigsty under it, people have left behind, pigs eat it. This method can be described as "making good use of external objects", but people and animals are connected, which is easy to cause evil diseases. When it struggled to grow a moan, the "spring light" was glimpsed by the crowd, what was its feeling? Folk toilets, mostly built huts on the pit, so it is called "thatched toilets".
The long night is long, the wind and rain are pressing, and I don't want to come out. The internal urgency cannot be delayed, but there are skillful craftsmen to make "night pots" for civilian use. It resembles a tiger, hence the name "Tiger". According to the "Miscellaneous Records of Xijing", the flying general Li Guang shot the tiger in the middle stone, and then wounded the tiger, and later "cast bronze statues in the shape of a rite of honor, showing disgust and humiliation". In the Tang Dynasty, he avoided his grandfather Li Hu and changed his name to "Horse Zi", and its shape was almost easy, similar to the barrel, so it was called "toilet".
In modern times, flush toilets have passed, and the latrines have gradually disappeared.
