See this artifact in front of you
Do you have a sense of time and space?
△ Tongluanling Henan Museum collection
A mini electric fan that is essential for everyone in summer
How did you sneak into the museum?
Three highlights will take you to know
Copper luan bell
HAND-HELD SMALL ELECTRIC FAN?NO!
It has another use
This bronze object resembles a small electric fan
In 1990, it was unearthed in the cemetery of Sanmenxia Yuguo
It's called Tongluan Bell
△ The left is the collection of the Henan Museum of Tongluanling
Although the shape is very traverse
But its actual role has nothing to do with the fan
Luan bell is a decorative accessory on ancient horse-drawn carriages
It is equivalent to the current car horn
(drip-drip-)
Luanling as a whole can be divided into:
There are three parts: the bell ball, the bell neck and the chicone (qióng) seat
△ Tongluanling Henan Museum collection
The bell ball is hollow
The round head contains a small projectile
When it is shaken, it makes a crisp and pleasant sound
Pass through the lowest 銎 (qióng) seat
It can be mounted on the yoke (è) or scale of the carriage
Because its sound is similar to the song of a bird
Therefore, it is called "Luanling" ("Luan" and "Luan" are common)
"The Biography of Han Poems" is vividly recorded
The scene of Luan bell shaking softly between the carriages and horses
Luan is in the balance, the car is moving, and the horse is moving.
It can both remind and warn passers-by
It can also reduce the stimulation of other sounds on the horse
Exclusive white noise makes the horse walk more steadily
Luan Ling was therefore very popular in the Western Zhou Dynasty
It gradually became a symbol of status and rank
△ Tongluanling Henan Museum collection
The highest grade carriage can be loaded with eight luang bells
That is what is described in the Book of Songs
Four peons Peng Peng, eight Luan Qiang Qiang
Translation: Four horses galloped, and eight luan bells made the sound of gold and stone
As one of the iconic artifacts of Zhou culture
The luan bell in front of me
It provides important material materials for the study of ancient chariots and horses

What other important parts of the ancient car?
So far, the earliest horse-drawn carriage unearthed in China
It is found in the ruins of Yinxu in Anyang in the late Shang Dynasty
It has been more than 3,000 years ago
The ancients treated their own carriages
It can be said that it is very cherished
As a result, a variety of exclusive carriage and horse accessories appeared
Danglu, the "car mark" of the ancient car
It is an ornament that hangs in the center of the horse's forehead
It can be called the "façade" of many carriages and horses
△ "Wenbo Calendar丨The ancients mounted the golden "car mark" looks like this"
A horsebit is a metal chain that is crossed in the horse's mouth
Match with the stirrup (biāo) and rope on both sides of the horse's mouth
You can control the horse's steering
△ Collection of the Shanxi Museum of the Horse
△ biāo (biāo) Shanxi Museum collection
In order to reduce knots on the horse's body
Avoid crossings where ropes intersect
The ancients designed the part "saving" again
△ Pure gold saving Jinan Zhangqiu District Museum collection
Save time, stabilize the nodules, and control the horse
It's all thanks to it
Between the horses' hooves
Luan bell rings softly
Pleasant sound spans history
Bring a unique chariot and horse culture
