On January 25, some netizens posted on the Internet, saying, "Rapid report, Sanxingdui fight cultural relics have been overturned, there are really too many people recently!" Tourists fight in the museum and directly knock over the cultural relics. Similarly, similar news circulated online, pictured in a display case, a bronze artifact slipped to the bottom of the display table.
According to media reports, it is rumored that the overturned bronze kneeling figure is a relic of the late Shang Dynasty (1250-1100 BC), and was unearthed in Sanxingdui No. 1 sacrificial pit in 1986.
On January 26, Sanxingdui Museum issued a notice on the matter, which reads as follows:
Yesterday (January 25) afternoon, a dispute between visitors in our museum attracted everyone's attention. What happened: two spectators had a spat while competing to see the cultural relics in the Bronze Hall, and there was a physical altercation, and the cultural relics slipped and fell in the display case due to the shaking of the display case. The security and cultural protection personnel of our museum immediately took emergency disposal measures, and after a comprehensive and careful inspection, the cultural relics were not damaged, and the cultural relics are currently on display normally. The local police station has also conducted criticism and education for the two parties in accordance with the Regulations on Administrative Punishments for Public Security. After this incident, we further strengthened our security inside and outside the pavilion to ensure that similar situations do not happen again.
During the Spring Festival, our museum has continuously been at the peak of visitor flow, which has exceeded the highest number of visitors in the same period of the past year. We have promptly activated emergency plans such as reservations, flow restrictions, and diversions, increased security and service forces, and strived to ensure the safety of cultural relics and the safety of exhibitions. ”
The reporter sorted out and found that netizens in the comment area raised the following speculations and questions. First, whether the number of tourists on that day is too large and the flow is not well controlled; second, how are the conservation installations of cultural relics in the museum; third, how to deal with fighting tourists; Fourth, whether the exhibits in the museum are originals or replicas.
In this regard, the reporter called the publicity department of Sanxingdui Museum, and the staff said, "Yesterday afternoon, when a tour group of tourists was visiting, in order to see the exhibition, there was a small conflict, there was a little physical conflict, pushed and shoved, shook the display case, the cultural relics slipped, fortunately, it was bronze, not damaged, our staff went to the scene in time to deal with it, and after inspection, it was found that the cultural relics and display cases were not damaged, and the security personnel and police station personnel took them away from the investigation in time to understand the situation, and criticized and educated them. They also deeply realized their mistakes, and after criticizing the education, they left, so they let the tour group take them away, and now the cultural relics are on display normally, and the problem has been dealt with. ”
As for whether the exhibits in the museum are originals, the staff said, "All true, if it is a replica, we will definitely say, replace what will be indicated with a replica, if it is not indicated, it is all true." ”
Regarding whether netizens raised whether to install shock-absorbing and shock-proof devices in the museum, the other party said, "These are there, the protection of cultural relics is better, this is a small accident, and it is precisely because we have made protective devices, so in emergency situations, cultural relics are not damaged, they are all intact." The reporter asked again about the specific protection device of cultural relics, and the propagandist said, "Now we are not good to be specific, our official has replied, it must be done very well, this is a small accident, so some are rumored falsely, not credible, just listen to our official statement, we will no longer accept telephone interviews." ”
In addition, Sanxingdui Museum advocates that when visiting, you need to pay attention to order and view the exhibition in a civilized manner.
The reporter noticed that at eight o'clock in the morning of January 24 and January 25, the official Weibo of Sanxingdui Museum issued a post to remind visitors that tickets had been sold out that day.
A staff member of Guanghan Sanxingdui Cultural Tourism Development Co., Ltd. told reporters, "The cultural relics must be fine, that is, after opening, we did not expect that the number of tourists would suddenly skyrocket, and next, we will make some corresponding adjustments, and we are still uncertain about the specific treatment." ”
