In 2013, villagers in Dabona Village, Xiangyun County, Yunnan Province, accidentally discovered a thousand-year-old tomb while digging a reservoir

The villagers have a good sense of protection and do not go to the tomb privately before the arrival of the experts. Archaeologists who heard the news deduced that the tomb has a thousand years of history and has great excavation value, so archaeologists immediately professionally excavated the tomb.

The excavation went smoothly at first, until the coffin with the blue bones appeared, and the experts realized that the tomb was definitely not an ordinary tomb, but must have an additional meaning

。 At this time, the experts came to be interested, and they all put on protective clothing and went down to the tomb, eager to know the secret of the blue skeleton, wanting to find out what the blue color on the body of the corpse was?

After a long period of excavation, experts can already rely on the artifacts and other small items that have been excavated.

It is inferred that around this small village, there are several thousand-year-old tombs from the Warring States to the Han Dynasty

This is a big news in the archaeological community. But for this small village, this is not a rare thing, because before that, this small village has been excavated in the ancient tomb, and the national treasure bronze "Big Bona Copper Coffin" excavated in 1964 was found in this small village.

The archaeologists involved in the excavation searched the ancient tombs and texts that had been excavated for the blue bones, but they were still clueless about the blue bones.

The excavation of this ancient tomb lasted for several years,

In 2014, the tomb was excavated again, archaeologists brought the blue bones back to the laboratory, this time finally found that although these bones are blue from the inside out, but the blue depth is different, one side is shallow, one side is deep, archaeologists realize that this is artificially dyed

The bones were mostly young males and a few females, and were only finally dyed in color at the time of the second burial. Now the question is simple, excavations have unearthed why people are dying, and the secret of this blue bone tomb has been solved.

After countless books and precedents for excavated tombs before, it is likely that this blue dye represents the identity occupation and noble status of the owner of the tomb

Through further research, it was found that this blue substance is a powder obtained after the crushing of blue iron ore rough, and this is used to dye the corpse,

It should be a very characteristic burial method
