Tracing the history of the Qin Dynasty is like uncovering an ancient picture, and the mystery in it makes it impossible not to fall into it. Weijiaya, Baoji City, Shaanxi Province, has become the starting point of the adventure of a Qin-seeking team. In this cold and windy land, Professor Liang Yun, an archaeologist at Northwest University, and his team have worked hard for decades to unravel the first traces of Qin in Guanzhong.
The Qin Dynasty is a legendary era in Chinese history, and the early history of the Qin people is a confusing past. Professor Liang Yun's journey to find Qin began with the collation of Qin tomb materials in Sanmenxia, and this diligent experience laid the foundation for his later in-depth study of Qin culture. His goal was to reveal the birthplace of Qin in Guanzhong, and this goal has become an important topic in Chinese archaeology.
The question of the origin of the Qin people has always been the focus of debate in academic circles. Through the investigation of 32 Qin cultural sites in Qingshui County and Zhangjiachuan County, Tianshui City, Gansu Province, Professor Liang Yun found archaeological evidence to support the "Oriental Theory". The discovery of the Liya site has become a strong evidence for the earliest Qin tombs, and has resolved the long-standing disagreement in the academic community.
However, this journey did not stop there. The excavation of Weijiaya has become a new archaeological hotspot. In this ancient land, Liang Yun's team discovered a series of amazing ruins such as city walls, high-grade Qin tombs, large chariot and horse pits, and surrounding ditches, which further confirmed the geographical location of the "Huangwei Zhihui".
However, the exact location of "Qinyi" is still disputed in academic circles. The results of the excavation of the Weijiaya site will have a decisive impact on solving this mystery. Professor Liang Yun said that the small tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty that have been excavated so far will provide key clues to determine the location of the "Feizi Fengyi".
