Recently, more than 13,000 cultural relics of Sanxingdui have been unearthed, which has pushed the topic of Sanxingdui to the extreme, and one of the gold leaf birds has caught my attention! Because this time archaeologists have pushed the historical age of Sanxingdui to the late Shang 3200 years ago. And the Book of Verses. Shang Song's "Xuan Bird" also has "Heavenly Destiny Xuan Bird, descending to give birth to the Shang, the house Yin Tu Mang Mang." ”的说法。
Gold leaf "bird" unearthed from Sanxingdui
Maybe this bird is a bird? The bird is today's swallow. Legend has it that Shang Zuqi was born when his mother swallowed the egg of the bird. We will not discuss this issue here, but only as a statement. There is also a saying that this bird is not a xuan bird but a three-legged crow mentioned in the Shan Hai Sutra. But my focus is not on this, I just want to know what the bird thinks. So I compared his eight directions upside down with the birds unearthed together, just like gods, but I always felt that something was wrong! Please be patient with the last one!

Finally, I saw that the façade diagram seemed to have traces of symmetry, so I boldly added a few strokes.
