Chapter 227 The ancient emperor had a Chao clan
Such huge jade material is very rare even now.
The ancients at that time were willing to carve such a large piece of jade into a jade pig.
It shows that this pig is a very important livestock in the eyes of ancient people.
But this pig has always been one of the five animals.
Maybe the ancients thought that after carving this jade pig.
You can use this instead for sacrifices in the future, which will save a lot of pork.
But this can only be used when there are really no sacrifices.
"But everyone found nothing strange." Ye Zhen seemed to have a hundred thousand reasons and asked another question.
weird place?
Is there anything strange about it?
In fact, as the audience looks over, these jade objects are all strange.
"This is weird!"
"These jades are strange, the styles are strange, and the host is even stranger!"
"Is there anything weirder?"
Obviously, everyone didn't understand what Ye Zhen was talking about.
But some insiders saw it.
“This place is indeed the same as Sanxingdui!”
"I'm talking about how it feels disharmonious, and Sanxingdui gives us the same feeling."
"I can also see where this strange place is."
Only Ye Zhen's voice was heard to say calmly: "The Lingjiatan ruins are the same as the Sanxingdui ruins.
No writing or remains have been excavated.
Don’t you think it’s strange?
Because it is almost the same period as the Hongshan Culture.
There is the earliest writing in it, and the Hongshan writing is earlier than the oracle bone inscriptions we know now.
Because when the oracle bone inscriptions were excavated, it was already a very mature writing system.
It can be known that there must be earlier writing before this.
This is what Hongshan characters are like.
However, there are striking similarities between the Lingjiatan ruins and the Hongshan culture.
But no words were unearthed, just like the Sanxingdui site.
Likewise, no bones were unearthed.
This was something that archaeologists at the time did not understand. "
Because such a level of civilization cannot be without any written symbols.
During the same period, the Hongshan Culture already had preliminary writing.
Very similar to the later Oracle.
At this time, the audience also knew why the Lingjiatan ruins were disharmonious.
"Yes, why are there words and corpses?"
"I just said something was missing. It turned out that there were no words and no body."
"Why is this happening?"
Professor Yan Xin became energetic again when he saw this.
Why was there no writing in the Sanxingdui ruins before?
Because it is possible that the ancients at the Sanxingdui site did not need to communicate through words at all.
They may be able to communicate directly using spirit, directly from consciousness.
"Could it be said that the people at the Lingjiatan site were like this?" The more Professor Yan Xin thought about it, the more likely it became.
Because this Lingjiatan site is the civilization of jade.
And some jade stones that have been absorbed were unearthed, so this is the route of spiritual ascension!
All the oxygen 18 in this jade has been absorbed, how could it be turned into powder?
The second is communication.
With psychic energy, it is very possible to awaken special abilities and directly communicate with consciousness.
But what do some archaeologists think? It can be confirmed that Lingjiatan is a group of tombs.
However, not a single skeleton was unearthed.
None of the teeth, which are considered to be the strongest, have been preserved.
After more than 30 years of digging, no human remains have been found.
This is very amazing.
They think it's because of the acidic soil here that things like bones couldn't be preserved.
All have disappeared into the soil.
That would explain, so why are there no words?
“In fact, in addition to these jade artifacts, the archaeological team also discovered many holes left by wooden piles here.
According to the remaining holes excavated.
The archaeological team believes that palaces and temples once existed at the Lingjiatan site.
Because the traces left by the wooden piles are enough to support the establishment of a palace for sacrifice.
Apart from this sacrificial palace and burial tombs.
There are also deep wells dug by the ancients. The ancients had already mastered the technology of digging wells.
The drilled well has a diameter of 1 meter and a depth of meters, and is surrounded by red bricks.
This shows that the ancients already had the concept of using clean water.
And the largest number of jades were dug out from this place, which is suspected to be a sacrificial palace.
When it was dug out, everyone thought there would be bones or something like that.
But it didn't, but a human figure made of jade was dug out.
And these jades and pottery all showed signs of being smashed and burned. "
The well uses artificial construction materials and fortress construction techniques, and is the earliest known example in the country.
One can imagine how advanced this place was back then.
Ye Zhen smiled, "Do you feel a sense of déjà vu?"
"The same is true for the things inside the Sanxingdui ruins. They were smashed, burned and then buried together."
If you put it this way, many traces of the Sanxingdui ruins can be found in the Lingjiatan ruins.
What is the most famous thing about Sanxingdui Ruins? The bronze sacred tree and the worship of the sacred bird.
If the sun is engraved on the jade eagle, it also represents the three-legged golden crow.
The same sacrificial method, the same sun totem worship.
This shows that the Sanxingdui site may have great origins in the Lingjiatan site.
"What's most amazing, according to local villagers.
In the 70s, there was a Stonehenge here.
The stones at Stonehenge range from large to small, with the small ones being more than five meters long and the large ones being more than nine meters long.
And there are some stones placed on top of the boulder as a cover.
It has been on display for many years.
Many old people have known this place since they were children.
But now we can't see Stonehenge.
Because at that time, a retired soldier returned to the village.
It happened that his family was short of materials to build a house, and he didn't know where he got the explosives.
Because when I was a soldier, I learned some blasting directly blew up the house from the Stonehenge. "
The audience felt suffocated upon hearing this.
"How dare he! Those are cultural relics!"
"Then the real thing was actually bombed?"
"It would be great if I still have it now."
I didn’t expect that we in China also have Stonehenge.
The one that everyone knows best now and is also the most famous is Stonehenge in England.
Every year, many tourists from all over the world come to visit Stonehenge.
And there are some weird crop circles near Stonehenge.
"Then do you all know who lives here now?" Ye Zhen looked at the camera with bright eyes.
Who lives here?What kind of people are they?
The audience has always had a question after seeing it.
Who is it that established such a peak jade civilization? The audience began to speculate.
"Is it Fuxi? Or Nuwa."
"This program is becoming more and more ancient. What age is it now?"
"Is this Pangu's tribe?"
In fact, this is also a huge mystery in archaeology.
Just like the Xia Dynasty, we still don’t know where the so-called Xia Dynasty is.
I don’t even know if it’s called Xia Chao.
Did Dayu really exist, or was he just a mythical figure?
Because no matching records have been unearthed yet.
The Erlitou site is the most likely, but it has not been confirmed yet.
Because Dayu is the boundary between myths and legends and history.
some historians sigh.
"This has been excavated for more than 30 years, but we still haven't figured out who this place belongs to."
"That's right, just like the ghost Sanxingdui ruins, there are no words and no bones."
"It's also a site that becomes more and more puzzling the more we dig into it, and the jade artifacts are making people's heads grow bigger."
Obviously, the industry doesn’t know who the Lingjiatan site belongs to.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Zhen. Did Ye Zhen know? Some historians looked at Ye Zhen.
"Does this kid know?"
"This is impossible. We have been studying it for decades and there is no conclusion."
"If he finds out, I will stand on my head and eat three pounds of boogers immediately!"
At this time, Xiao Ming’s father asked Xiao Ming, “Xiao Ming, do you know which ancient people this Lingjiatan ruins belongs to?”
I saw Xiao Ming shaking his little head, "Dad, do you know?"
Xiao Ming's father rolled his eyes, "Of course Dad knows, Dad will test you!"
Back at the TV station, Ye Zhen just gently wrote three words on the small whiteboard behind him.
There is a nest.
Everyone was shocked when they saw the three words written by Ye Zhen.
This is the tribe with the Chao clan! ?
Some viewers may not know who Chao is.
Youchao can be said to be one of the ancestors of our Chinese nation.
What is Youchao's greatest contribution?
It taught us how to build houses so that we no longer have to live in the open.
Why does Ye Zhen think that the Lingjiatan ruins are the territory of the Chao family?
Only Ye Zhen smiled and said lightly.
"Didn't I tell everyone just now? There are traces of wooden piles here.
And the earliest fired red bricks were unearthed, not just in my country.
It is far ahead in the world.
There are also extremely advanced water wells.
The second is where the Lingjiatan ruins are located, near Chaohu Lake.
It is recorded in ancient books that this Hui Province is where the Chao family is located.
"Jianlue" records: The wooden structure is the nest, and the leaves are the clothes.
The traces of some wooden piles are evidence, as well as the earliest red clay bricks fired in our country.
These red clay bricks are not ordinary, they are fired at a high temperature of 1200 degrees Celsius.
"History of the Road" records: "In the past, there were many difficulties for people. There were saints who lived in the teaching nest. They made caves in winter and lived in nests in summer.
Before being cremated, they hunted animals to eat and dug wells to drink.
The juniper straw is used to produce fruit, so as to avoid difficulties.
And people say that he makes the king of the world, and he is called Youchao clan.
What does this translate to?
In the distant past, human beings faced many difficulties, with numerous wild animals and harsh natural environment.
At this time, a sage appeared and taught people how to build nests.
In the cold winter, they build warm nests as shelter, and in the hot summer, they choose to build shelters in trees or caves to escape the heat.
There was no cremation technology at that time, so people could only obtain food by hunting wild animals.
They also learned to dig wells to obtain water.
They used branches and straw as building materials to withstand difficulties and dangers.
This saint was loved and respected by the people for his contributions, and they elected him king and made him a member of the Aricha clan. "
Speaking of this, some of the archaeological team members who participated in the excavation looked at Ye Zhen in shock.
Because the things recorded here all appeared in the Lingjiatan ruins.
The manufactured houses also have red bricks made of branches and straw.
The most important thing about the well is that it is located near Chaohu Lake!
It all fits together.
Some of the archaeological team members cried with excitement.
"So this is the tribe of the ancient emperor Chao Clan!"
"With the Chao clan, no wonder there are such red bricks and wells here."
"Is there actually a Chao family? Why didn't I think of it before?"
The archaeological team members and historians were quite shocked and could only look at Ye Zhen with their mouths wide open.
Unexpectedly, Ye Zhen actually knew! Xiao Ming's father said after the fact: "Hahaha, I already knew that there was a Chao family."
"It's just that I want to see if the host knows."
Xiao Ming looked at his father with suspicion.
Old Wu was so excited that he splashed all the water in the teacup in his hand.
"There is actually a Chao clan. I didn't expect it to be a tribe with a Chao clan."
Professor Zhou also understood that Chao was one of the ancient emperors.
He is the ancestor of Chinese humanity.
The status is very high.
I didn’t expect that this was not a myth, but a real thing! (End of this chapter)
