Everyone's views on the Classic of Mountains and Seas are different, and some people think that the Classic of Mountains and Seas is a book of myths and stories, and the contents of which are all made up.
Some people think that the book is an ancient civilization, which is very valuable for research.
In modern times, the study of the Classic of Mountains and Seas is more extensive, and a scholar, Mr. Gong Yuhai, has established the "Classic of Mountains and Seas Research Association" and has studied the Classic of Mountains and Seas for more than 30 years.
However, many people are indifferent to Professor Gong Yuhai's research results after hearing about it, and even some are spurned, because Professor Gong Yuhai said that China is the source of ancient civilization and the center of civilization in the world.
Professor Gong Yuhai
This statement is very exaggerated, but if we read the Classic of Mountains and Seas carefully, we can still find a lot of evidence. There is also a lot of evidence that ancient Egypt was part of China, Dayu was the Egyptian pharaoh, and the Dayu Zhishui recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas ruled the Nile River instead of the Yellow River!
The description of Dayu Zhishui in the Classic of Mountains and Seas is as follows:
Emperor Yue: "Come, Yu! Ru Yichangyan. Yu Baiyue: "Both! Emperor, what do you say? Give si ri diligently. Gao Tao said, "Woo! How is it? Yu Yue: "The flood is monstrous, the haohaohuai mountain...".
Da Yu Zhi Shui
The record of this passage is that Dayu zhishui, and Dayu's description of this flood is "the flood is monstrous, vast and vast", from this point of view, the Yellow River is not enough to have such a momentum.
Nine-curved Yellow River
The Yellow River, a thousand years ago, was green and green, but now it is because of environmental damage, and even such a flood is not enough to "flood the sky and the mountains are vast". From this, it can be inferred that the river where our Chinese civilization was at that time may not be like the Yellow River.
It can be judged that we were very dependent on this river at that time, which was very important for the survival and development of China, otherwise people would have moved away from such a flood, unless it was the only foundation of a region. From this point of view, the only rivers in the world are the Nile, the Two Rivers, and the Ganges. Of these three, the Nile is the most consistent, because Egypt is bordered by desert oceans, and there is no place to go except the Mother River of the Nile.
Looking at ancient books, you can see that the ancient Egyptians really have a lot of similarities with China.
Yellow skin and black hair, not to mention, the most surprising thing is that the funeral ceremonies are the same, all of them are draped in linen and filial piety! The Egyptians also had funeral processions, mourning teams, and like us, we regarded death as life.
Ancient Egyptians' "Phi Ma Dai Filial Piety"
There are detailed pictures in the Egyptian burial chamber frescoes, in which the description of the funeral rites is like this: Pharaoh had to be mummified for 70 days after his death, and the coffin bed had to be dragged by cattle to start the funeral, and there was a huge funeral procession, which included slaves, priests, relatives, etc., and it was with a white cloth headband, and the shoes were also white, which was simply our filial piety.
Egyptian burial chamber frescoes
After death, there are also furniture, treasures, etc. in the mausoleum, and then the stonemasons seal the tomb door, and finally these people eat in the shed outside the tomb, which is too similar to the Chinese funeral ceremony. In addition, some people have deduced that the Egyptian pharaohs and Yao Shunyu's hieroglyphs are almost the same, is there so much coincidence in history? This is worth pondering.
All of this suggests that ancient Egypt originated in China, and that ancient Egypt was ruled by China, and Mr. Gong Yuhai's argument has been argued by many pieces of evidence. Of course everything is speculation, because there is still a lot of stuff that has not been proven. The world we know now is only the tip of the iceberg, let alone the ancient world.
Now research generally believes that the ancient Egyptian civilization was formed more than 6,000 years ago, and the evidence is that archaeologists have found cultural relics and inscriptions more than 6,000 years ago in Egypt, that is, the early prototype of writing.
However, because it was still in the early days of human civilization at that time, the development form was still relatively backward, and most of the civilization forms existed in the form of tribes, and no unified country was formed.
In ancient Egyptian legend, the unified ancient Egypt was officially formed more than 5,000 years ago, when a tough politician appeared in Egypt and established the First Dynasty of Egypt, and this person was Menes.
It is recorded that Menes reigned for 62 years, during which he carried out many political initiatives, and rarely, these political initiatives were almost all recognized by the Egyptian people. It is no exaggeration to say that Menes was one of the most brilliant kings in ancient Egyptian history, but unfortunately, such a heroic figure can only be found in myths and folklore.
Until the 19th century, a British archaeologist discovered a large number of artifacts dating back more than 5,000 years during archaeological excavations in southern Egypt. According to many studies, these artifacts are considered to be the artifacts of the worship of Menes.
In particular, a precious ancient Egyptian artifact of the "Narmai Palette" was unearthed, which is a shield-shaped stone slab with the figure of Menes wearing a white crown, raising a marker with his right hand, and grabbing the hair of an enemy kneeling on the ground with his left hand. On the reverse side was Menes and his entourage inspecting the battle.
Nalmai palette
Most striking are the white and red crowns on the crown representing Upper and Lower Egypt. It is clear that this is a symbol of the unity of ancient Egypt. This cultural relic is a long time away from this year, and its historical value is self-evident. The excavation of this cultural relic naturally caused a stir in the archaeological community of cultural relics, and was even used by Western scholars as a weapon to slander Chinese civilization.
Some Western archaeologists believe that this picture is actually a picture of Yanhuang Zhan You in ancient Chinese mythology. It is also known as the "Battle of Zhuolu"!
The Menis in the picture is actually the Yellow Emperor, kneeling on the ground is Xuan You, these Western experts will mix this picture with some other disorganized and even fabricated so-called evidence, in a vain attempt to confirm their "Chinese civilization is the ancient Egyptian civilization". This is nonsense and sensationalism!
But what foreigners don't know is that in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, there is a passage like this:
"The wilderness of great happiness, after the summer, is here for nine generations, riding two dragons and covering three layers of clouds." Left hand, right hand ring, Pei Yu Huang.
The meaning of this passage is obvious, it is to describe the dress of Xia Qi, the emperor of the Xia Dynasty. As an emperor of a generation, Xia Qi seated under the seat of two dragons pulled the car, above which there were three layers of cloud cover. He holds something called "翳" in his left hand, an iron ring in his right hand, and wears a precious jade juan.
From the above text, it can be seen that Xia Qi's dress is very special, and the objects in his hands are even more peculiar, what are these two strange objects?
We can clearly see that the objects in Pharaoh's hands are very similar to those described in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and even the "Jade Huang" mentioned in the text is also exactly similar.
Therefore, who is the ancestor of whom, until the truth of history is revealed, it is difficult to say!
Although there is almost no record of the culture of five thousand years ago in the history of the world, only various myths and legends remain. But it is undeniable that the Classic of Mountains and Seas is an all-encompassing book of heaven.
In many middle school language geography studies, the Water Commentary Sutra is quoted in dozens of places. It shows that the Classic of Mountains and Seas has also entered people's lives.
The famous writer Jia Pingwa once said: The cultural thinking of Chinese is in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", and how China's concept of the formation of the external world comes from the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".
Wei Zheng of the Tang Dynasty was also conquered by it after reading the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and wrote the book into the annals of history.
However, friends who want to see it should have a worry, that is, they are afraid of not being able to understand the text inside, and they can't imagine the strange beasts inside.
Therefore, here I recommend the full-annotated and illustrated version of the Classic of Mountains and Seas that I am reading.
Not only does it add vernacular annotations, it reads without any obstacles, and the language of the translation is very fluent, and I read it to know what a story is.
In order to allow us to vividly appreciate the magic of the content, it is intimately attached with illustrations, some unimaginable mythical beasts and monsters, with a beautiful drawing to convey the presentation, no longer need you to think hard about what it looks like, but also can increase our fun when reading.
Let the children feel the charm of the Classic of Mountains and Seas together, this kind of story, children also like to watch, full of fun, but also by the way to develop the child's imagination, why not enjoy it?
