Chapter 292: Nothing Left Behind

"How many boxes are left in the car?"

"More than a dozen of them, big and small. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Guan Xingquan glanced at the cellar niche and said, "It should be enough." ”

This will be a lot more space, enough for two people to do it. Zhang Nan and Guan Xingquan simply went in together: the big ding on the west side seemed to be the largest in the entire cave niche, and the height was almost 60 centimeters.

First move out of the small tripod in the big ding, not surprisingly, there is also an inscription on it: hand it over to Qiu Bo to move down first.

Move the big ding again: just move this kung fu, Zhang Nan saw that there was also a long inscription on the inner wall of the tripod, the same as in his memory.

Everyone at the scene will no longer consider the value of these bronzes, because they are priceless at all! And Zhang Nan will not sell them, it is his own private collection.

This is similar to the situation of the Yue Wang Sword: in my memory, before Hangcheng Iron and Steel Group bought the Yue Wang Sword and donated it to the Jiangnan Museum, Jiangnan Province, which is the core of the Yue Kingdom's hometown, did not have a Yue Wang Sword!

Move all the things home, and when the time comes to open the museum to exhibit this batch of shocking bronze cellars, it is estimated that a group of people will be stunned - the treasures of the Western Qin Dynasty have arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, and some experts have gone to the brains!

Just like the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties project, even if it is finally completed, this controversy has not stopped: in the academic world, as the old saying goes, there is no first and no second, and quarrels and quarrels are healthier.

It took great effort to move Dading down the dirt slope, and the time was close to 1 o'clock in the second half of the night.

At this time, Guan Xingquan took out a strange bronze and said to Zhang Nan: "What is this, there are 8 large and small in it." ”

This thing has three legs, a corset neck, an extravagant middle edge, a curved crotch nearly flat, a hoof-shaped foot, the upper abdomen is decorated with stealing curves, and the lower abdomen is decorated with a deformed dragon pattern dragon, and the body is cast with 3 ribs.

Zhang Nan looked at it and said: This is a mustache, read lì, eating utensils, the function is similar to the earliest role of Ding, used for cooking rice in ancient times. The earliest to appear was the pottery mustache, which was made according to the pottery mustache that existed in the Neolithic period. The shape is generally extravagant, that is, the mouth edge is tilted outward, and there are three hollow feet, which is convenient for cooking and heating.

This bronze mustache was popular from the Shang Dynasty to the Spring and Autumn Period, and then disappeared. ”

Zhang Nan took it and saw a circle of words cast on the edge of the mouth of this mustache, Zhang Nan really knew most of these words, and said: "Uncle Shan is Meng-Zun-his 10,000-year-old son-grandson-Yongbao, and his descendants are useless, and they belong to us." ”

There are also 8 bronze mustaches inside, and after moving them out, I found that not only the shape is the same, but also the inscriptions are the same, all of which belong to the "Uncle Shan".

After the 8 bronze mantles were moved, the last large tripod in the cave niche was moved.

The time is just right.

"Climb the peak, Qiu Bo, take all the detectors back, big and small. ”

As soon as they heard the boss's words, the two bodyguards returned to the terrace with metal detectors after moving the last big ding.

This trip brought three detectors, in addition to the first one bought from the township enterprises in Guizhou Province, and two sets were brought back from the United States, and the sensitivity is very high.

The smaller one isn't much bigger than the one used for security at the airport, and the larger one is fine at a depth of 3 meters if it is used to detect a few kilograms of bronze underground.

"Brother Guan, climb the peak, you go up and check, just take this place as the center, there is a 300 square meters is about the same. ”

Guan Xingquan took the largest set, and together with Li Panfeng, he went up the loess steps on the top and began to explore, while Zhang Nan held a small shovel in one hand and a small detector in the other hand and drilled into the cave niche.

The small shovel cleared the bottom of the cellar cavern, which was raw earth, and then used the detector to probe around: except for the faint reaction of patina, there was no metal reaction on the four walls of the niche.

This can be regarded as the cleaning of the utensils, a total of 28 things, but because one of the copper kettles unearthed when the lid and the body of the pot are different, so it is actually 27 treasures.

There are 12 copper tripods alone! The number of copper tripods unearthed at one time is so large, it is estimated that there are only a handful in the whole of China!

Among the 27 utensils, there are 12 copper tripods, 9 copper mustaches, 2 copper pots, and 1 copper plate, copper cup, copper bowl and copper cup. 6 pieces of tripods can be regarded as big tripods, weighing more than 40 catties, two of which are nearly 100 catties. The copper pot is also big enough, 70 catties, and a pair of copper kettles weigh 50 catties each!

The final finishing touches began here, and a message came from the upper terrace: there is a reaction underground!

It is not surprising that on the nearby terrace above the head of this cellar niche, the archaeological department of Western Qin Province has carried out investigations, drilling, and excavations.

The excavation area is also 300 square meters, in addition to this bronze cellar, a total of 16 tombs were excavated, including 5 tombs in the Western Zhou Dynasty, 11 tombs in the first Zhou Dynasty, 1 carriage and horse pit, and 1 horse pit.

The first Zhou, to put it bluntly, is the historical period of the Zhou people before the destruction of the Shang Dynasty: the Zhou people were a tribe surnamed Ji after the Shang Dynasty, so the kings of Zhou in all dynasties were surnamed Ji.

Zhou people after Ji as the ancestor, this because of the understanding of the way of crops, the crops planted are very lush, the legend was used by Emperor Yao as a "farmer", and he was named in Tai, according to legend, it is now Xianyang martial arts - southwest of the county, and the surname Ji is given.

According to historical records, there were a total of 15 generations of kings from Houji to King Wen of Zhou during the early Zhou Dynasty: abandon (Houji)—> Buyao—> Jutao—> Duke Liu—> Qingjie—> Emperor's Servant—> Chafu—> Destroyer—> Gongfei—> Gaoyuan—> Yayuan—> Group Cyan—> Gugong's Father—> Jili—King Wen of >.

During the early Zhou period, the capital went through several migrations, and the Zhou people became more and more powerful, which gave rise to the capital of the later destruction of the merchants.

"There are at least seven or eight places up there that have a reaction of metallic copper, do you want to dig it?"

After Guan Xingquan and Li Panfeng finished probing, they came down and asked Zhang Nan.

"Forget it, the depth is not small, let's talk about it next time I have a chance. ”

There are carriage and horse pits and horse pits to accompany the burial, and the level of those tombs must not be low, but Zhang Nan is not in a hurry at this time.

The tombs were at least two meters deep from the surface, which was close to two o'clock, and even if they threw off their arms, they couldn't dig a pit before dawn - the hundreds of kilograms of bronze in the small truck were too precious to be left unexpected.

And in 03, various media reported on the 27 bronzes in the cellar, and it is estimated that those tombs are not super precious things, and they will be talked about next time.

The land of Yangjia Village is magical, there have been two bronze cellars before today, and each place is up to 200 meters apart.

Guan Xingquan felt a little pity, Zhang Nan smiled and said: "What's the hurry, next time we bring a large ground penetrating radar, and find another windy and snowy day, there is a chance." ”

"Okay, listen to you. ”

This grave digging is also addictive!

Once you've packed up your stuff, you can't just leave it like that: it's not very far from the village, and it'll be fun to wait until someone discovers the big hole in the next few days.

It's up to my brother-in-law to figure it out!
