introduction
As we all know, China's feudal dynasty lasted for thousands of years, during which many emperors were born, and they made great contributions to the development of the country, and even some dynasties once reached their peak, and the national strength was very strong. At that time, the strength of the mainland also made many countries show us the goodwill, hoping to get the protection of the mainland. Because each country is located in a very different geographical location, each country has its own characteristic culture and rich mineral resources. Unfortunately, many dynasties on the mainland have not been able to understand the principle that prosperity and decline are bound to decline, and eventually they all gradually decline and go to extinction. What is even darker is that because of the mainland's closed-door policy, the mainland has derailed from the world and lagged behind the rest of the world in strength, so other countries have extended their claws to China in order to seek greater interests and land. During this period, the mainland lost a huge amount of wealth and land, and many buildings were destroyed.
With the passage of time, the entire feudal dynasty has been buried in the long river of history, and many cultural relics have extremely high value with the changes of time. We all know that due to the prevalence of burial in the ancient feudal society period, there are many valuable treasures in the tombs of those dignitaries and emperors. At present, many ancient tombs have been found on the mainland, and the cultural relics in the tombs have been excavated and collected in museums for future generations to appreciate. To say that during the excavation of ancient tombs, experts must be careful, for fear of destroying the Chinese of the tomb, after all, after so many years, cultural relics are very fragile. In addition, experts are more afraid of this situation, that is, afraid of the appearance of eggs in the tomb, why is this? Let's take a look at the reasons behind it.
Why are archaeologists afraid of eggs in the tomb
Eggs are common to us in life, and they are also foods that we often eat, and their nutritional value is very high. In today's society, eggs are a very common presence. But before, eggs were very precious, and most of the people who could eat eggs and eat them regularly were the richer families. In fact, in real life, each company or each place has its own rules and regulations, the archaeological community is no exception, eggs in the archaeological community is also very exquisite, archaeologists are most afraid of finding eggs in the tomb, is there any reason for this? Or is there something else to say? Because the tomb took hundreds or thousands of years to appear in front of our eyes, and this is very long for us humans, not to mention the short decades, not to mention these buried objects. Usually archaeologists are very careful when they enter the tomb, because these precious funerary items, when it comes to the erosion of time, become very fragile, and may become fragments if they are not carefully touched.
What's more, these are ancient funerary objects, and there is no way to restore them with current technology. Even if experts try their best to fix it, it will not be able to show its original value. Seeing this, I believe everyone will understand why experts are afraid that eggs will appear in the tomb. The original contents of the tomb have taken hundreds of years, not to mention that the eggs are already very fragile, and they will shatter with a touch. But why did the ancients put eggs into the ancient tombs? This still has to say that the superstitious thinking of the people at that time. There is a lot of rich and noble families who prefer to eat eggs, afraid that they will go to another world without eggs after they die, so they put them in the tomb as funerary products, hoping that they can also eat eggs after going to another world.
Eggs were found in Western Zhou tombs 2800 years ago
Usually, some rich and noble families will build their own tombs in advance before they die, and then put the things they like to use before they die, of course, they are also afraid that the objects they put in the tomb will be remembered by tomb robbers, so they will pay people to build organs in the eyes to protect the funerary products in the tomb, so once the tomb appears in the stage, archaeologists will attach great importance to this archaeological work, do anything will be careful, after all, there are many hidden organs in the tomb, If you accidentally trigger the mechanism, it will be life-threatening at any time. In fact, the mainland has found eggs in ancient tombs, which is also the earliest egg found in the mainland, when this egg was found in the Western Zhou tomb 2800 years ago, this egg was placed in the Western Zhou geometric printing hard pottery urn, at first the experts found this egg is very shocked, because they did not expect that the egg can be preserved so completely.
When experts discovered the existence of the egg, they did not dare to move it drastically, because the egg has been 3,000 years old, and if you are not careful, it is likely to disappear. And at that time, there were no instruments to study eggs that already had a lifespan of 3,000 years, so experts did not get valuable information on eggs. However, they are also trying to figure out how to make the egg less fragile.
In fact, it is also very normal to have such a thing as broken, which is not the mistake of archaeologists, to know that these eggs have a history of at least hundreds of years in ancient tombs, and it is a very normal phenomenon that they will be broken when they are touched. It is precisely because of this situation that archaeologists are reluctant to touch it. There is also in order to protect the safety of the examiners themselves, because the burial chambers have been in a closed environment for hundreds of years, thousands of years, no one knows what kind of germs will breed here, and substances like eggs, proteins have long been moldy, and may even become a bacterial bomb, once touched the consequences are very serious.
epilogue
In any case, cultural relics are very important to the country, because we can learn a lot of historical information from cultural relics, but also let us understand the social state at that time, so I hope that more cultural relics can be well protected, so as to realize their own value. I wonder if you have any other opinions on this
