In the international historical community, in order to define and study the convenience, the signs of the emergence of civilization are described more consistently as: 1, the production of words; 2, the use of metal tools; 3, the emergence of cities and the formation of the state, which are the three major signs of human beings entering civilized society. However, the archaeological excavations at the Erlitou site in the Yellow River Basin, that is, no trace of the city and the city, nor the slightest imprint of the text, have led many domestic historians and archaeologists to call for changing the criteria for the identification of human civilized society. After the change, is it still the civilized society of Chinese civilization?
The rivers, rivers, huaihuai, and ji are the four blasphemy of Chinese civilization recorded in classical Chinese literature. The "river" has always been thought to refer specifically to the "Yellow River", is this really the case? Did the word "river" originate from the Yellow River? What important role does the production of writing play in Chinese civilization?
The history of human civilization, beginning with the invention of writing, is only seven or eight thousand years in time, and these thousands of years account for only one percent of human history. The development of human culture, from the research of human geography, has the following three kinds of consensus: First, the development of human culture is not sudden, but human beings have learned a lot of experience in the competition for survival, and gradually accumulated and passed down. In other words, many cultures of the epoch have their origins in human activities in prehistoric times; second, various human cultures, because of changes in the environment and the change of times, are in and out of each other. Humanists generally agree that the human body, intellect and morality are fundamentally the same, and if there is an ideal environment, any nation can gradually advance and create a noble culture. Third, human beings have the power of common progress and cooperation, but they also have the despicable nature of killing each other. Human beings are cruel, and there is not enough killing between individuals, and they will also combine relatives, carry out armed struggles, and even establish offensive and defensive alliances between nationalities, resulting in large-scale wars.
In the study of Chinese history, the Huaihe Tushan Mountain, which is recognized as "Xia Zhixing also takes the Mountain of The Tao", has found a large number of pottery carving symbols from 7300 years ago at the Shuangdun Cultural Site excavated ten kilometers northeast of it, which is considered to be the source of the production of Chinese characters, and has the original prototype of graffiti and writing in the early stage of the development of human civilization.
A total of 607 pottery carved symbols have been excavated from the Shuangdun Cultural Site, and the richness of the content contained is unmatched by any site in the same period. In terms of known content alone, there are realistic carvings of mountains, rivers, suns, animals, plants, houses, etc., as well as depictions of production and life such as pig hunting, fishing, net birds, deer captives, planting, silkworm raising, weaving, and raising livestock, as well as geometric inscriptions such as notes and counting. The content involves the clothing, food, shelter and transportation of the Shuangdun people, as well as astronomical calendars and religious beliefs, covering almost all the contents of production, life and spiritual aspects, and can be called the "archives" of primitive society.
The four defilements of rivers, rivers, Huai, and Jizhi, studied from the perspective of text structure, all originate from "yin" and "water". According to the author's research conclusions, the emergence of "yin" and "water" comes from the depiction of the location of rivers and lakes in the Tushan area in the Dayu period 4,000 years ago, and is the water system map of the time when Dayu ruled the water. So, is the production of the word "river" also related to dayu zhishui?
"When Emperor Yao was in the time, the water was monstrous, the haohaohuai mountain was in xiangling, the people were worried, and Yao sought to be able to cure the water" "Bo Yu is a sikong, and can become a merit of Mei Yao." ("History"), "Water passes through the clouds: Huai Shui comes out of the left side of jing, meandering into the vortex, and the high water of the foothills is troubled, and Yu chisels the gorge of the two mountains, so that Huai flows out of it, and the water is flowing peacefully." There are ruins at the chisel, which can be seen in the winter moon. ”。 Located on both sides of today's Huai River, Jingshan and Tushan were originally one, and the Huaishui flow to this place was blocked by the Jingtu Ershan, and the Huaishui rose from the western foothills of the Jingshan Mountains to the jingshan confluence of the vortex river, and the Huaishui flowed east. Whenever the flood of the Huai River occurs, the scene of the flood surrounding Jingshan is formed, that is, the flood scene of "Xiangling of Haohaohuai Mountain".
Dayu Zhishui excavated the connection between Jingshan and Tushan to form the "Gorge of Jingtu Ershan" and "make Huai flow out of it, and the water is flowing". As a result, Jingshan became a mountain surrounded by water and became the origin of the "mouth" in the "river"; the opening of the "Gorge of Jingtu Ershan" also straightened the Huaishui and vortex rivers, becoming the origin of the "one" in the "river" and the source of the "qi" in the "river". The "氵" in the character "River" is a primitive depiction of the Beimi River, the Qian River and the Nihe River (known as the Yellow River in ancient times) on the east bank of the Huaishui River. Therefore, the emergence of the word "river" has a causal relationship with the Chinese ancestors who lived in the Shuangdun cultural site 7300 years ago, which is the result of the continuous and stable development of the Shuangdun culture in the Huaihe River for 3000 years.
【Spring and Autumn Talk】 River of Words Lotus. Lotus essence is divided into divisions, and the degree of introduction is also. 【Explanation】River, lower also. With the underground and the flow also. The origin of the word "river" is a description of the lotus, lotus, and lotus that grow in the gentle and shallow river water. Lotus lotus and mustard (also known as chicken head rice) are important aquatic plants that provide auxiliary food for the Chinese ancestors and ensure the food needs of the Chinese ancestors. If Lotus Lotus cannot determine the geographical origin of its name, then Qi Shi comes from the Qian River, and there is no doubt that it comes from the Qian River, because the only meaning of the word "Qi" is "Qi River" and "Qi Shi". Therefore, "river" and "lotus" also originate from the rivers and lakes around the Huaishui River in the Taoshan Mountains, which is a reasonable, true and reliable cultural and historical fact.
The area where Chinese characters were produced is the place where Chinese civilization was formed, and it is an important topic for future Chinese historical and archaeological research. When the words "river", "water", "塗", "mountain", "Hua", "Xia" and other words are all produced in the Huai River Tu Shan Jing Shan, "Xia Zhi xing is also based on Tu Shan", Xia Qi was born and grew up in Huai Shui Tu Shan, then, as China's first hereditary dynasty, the first dynasty of China's state form, will leave this place of Longxing that gave birth to Chinese culture? Yao Shunyu's three generations, successively governing the waters of the world, and the place where Dayu Zhishui established great achievements, so that "the people of China can eat and eat", is it still the place of Dongyi in the mouths of later historians and archaeology?
