The Turkish archaeological community is boiling! The history of Troy is pushed forward by 600 years, 1500 years before the Xia Dynasty in China

Anyone who knows a thing or two about Western history knows about Troy, and even if you don't, you've probably heard of the computer virus Trojan. It is a computer virus that spreads through a computer network. It can hide itself in any corner of the network, as long as it is infected, it will cause huge losses to users. Hence the name "computer killer". Troy is the ancient battlefield of the ancient Greek hero Homer, the first work of Western literature. After a 10-year stalemate between gods and gods, the Achaeans eventually invaded Troy with the Trojan horse scheme of the city of Troy and slaughtered its inhabitants.

The city of Troy, although no one knew it or knew it, was actually considered a mythical place for centuries and did not exist as a reality. From the end of the 5th century BC to the beginning of the 4th century AD, the city of Troy played an important role as a military dividing line between the Roman Empire and the Persian Empire. But due to war and other reasons, the city eventually flooded. It was not until the 1870s that amateur archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann discovered the site in the province of Canakkale in northwestern Turkey and was granted UNESCO World Heritage Status in 1988, but modern historians still question the authenticity of Troy's existence.

According to archaeological evidence, the city of Troy is about 4900 years old and dates back to the Bronze Age. It was the first capital city established by the Greeks after their conquest of Asia Minor. In 514 BC, when the Greek army attacked the city of Troy, the city was devastated. Since then, the ancient city has been lost in the long yellow sand. The city of Troy has been destroyed and rebuilt many times because of its important strategic points, and countless heroes have thrown their heads and blood here and returned to the underworld. Recently, however, Turkish archaeologists have been surprised to discover that the history of the city of Troy dates back 600 years, and was founded around 3500 BC, 1500 years before the Xia Dynasty in China.

Since the discovery of the Trojan site, archaeologists have discovered a total of 10 levels of settlements known as Troy I-IX. Many artifacts have been found on each floor of the settlement, dating from 3000 BC to the 1st century BC and from the Bronze Age to the Byzantine period.

Archaeologists who have been at the Trojan Trojan archaeological site in CanakkaleOnsekiz, Turkey in recent years, recently discovered a new layer of the oldest destroyed settlement known as the Trojan 0, where 5,500-year-old pottery, wooden beams and burning fires were found. This major discovery is another important discovery after the Greek Akkadian civilization and marks Troy as one of the earliest cities in the world to enter the Bronze Age. Archaeologists are very excited about this discovery, because it means that the history of Troy will be postponed again, which will surely change the modern people's understanding and understanding of this historic city and even the Qing dynasty, and attract the attention of the whole world.

Isn't it hard to remember? 5,500 years ago, humans built the city of Troy, the pyramids built more than 4,600 years ago, the mammoth roamed the Siberian steppe at that time; 25,000 years ago, the Extremely exquisite frescoes appeared in the Lascaux Caves in France; and 34,000 years ago, in Russia, homo sapiens bones were decorated with exquisite ornaments, including more than 10,000 mammoth ivory beads sewn into clothes, 25 ivory bracelets, hundreds of hats decorated with fox teeth, and countless small sculptures and ivory products. These are some of the oldest works of art in the world. But where exactly did these works of art come from? How were they discovered and preserved? What is the story behind these artworks? As more and more evidence emerges, it may be understood whether there will be more traces of civilization buried beneath the surface of the unknown in the future, and how far back the history of human civilization can be.
