803 Strange Stone Jar

glanced at He Xiaoman, who looked like a curious baby, Zhang Yang smiled, chewed the apple that had just been stuffed into his mouth, and waited until he swallowed it before holding the other party in his arms and looking at the sunset in the distance, and then explained.

"You said those strange-shaped stones, to be precise, those strange-shaped stones should be called 'stone jars', of course, this is just a common name for him, before talking about this stone jar, I will tell you a news from some time ago. ”

Originally, I was going to directly say the meaning of those stone jars, but after thinking about it, Zhang Yang first talked about the news he had read before from Lian Heguo.

He Xiaoman immediately put on a careful listening expression, and comfortably enjoyed the one-on-one small class that Zhang Yang opened for her at this time, which was not enjoyed by more than 7 million people in the live broadcast room, and she was a little proud when she thought of this!

"This should be the news of last year, to be precise, on July 6, at the 43rd session of the World Heritage Committee in Baku, Azerbaijan, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) inscribed the Shigang Plain in Lao Wu Province on the World Heritage List.

You must know that this is the third site in Laos to be included in the World Cultural Heritage List after Luang Prabang and Champa Saiwap Temple.

At that time, according to UNESCO, the Stone Jar Plain in the northern plateau of Laos was named after more than 2,100 megalithic jars, which are said to have been used for funerary customs during the Iron Age.

In fact, it is similar to the stone jars we just saw in the picture, these stone jars are basically about 3 meters high, most of them are hewn from rock, sand, granite and limestone, and the time can even be traced back to 500 BC to 500 AD, that is, the Spring and Autumn Period of our country, and the Iron Age of Laos.

Archaeologists who discovered the site at the time believed that in ancient burial practices, the jars may have been used to temporarily store a deceased person, or as a second burial, or both.

Oh, by the way, the same batch of people included in the World Heritage List seems to be in addition to this stone jar plain, there are also the ruins of the ancient city of Liangzhu City in our country!"

At this moment, He Xiaoman was completely aroused, and he couldn't wait to take a look at these stone jars, which were antiquities from the same period as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Of course, the first thing she thought of was the stone jar found by those people in the forest closest to them, but thinking that the situation was still unknown, and she didn't know what the identities of those people were, she couldn't help but say when she thought that Zhang Yang had just said that the next live broadcast would be the afternoon after tomorrow.

"It's over there, should we go to the Northern Plains to have a look? Anyway, the live broadcast is the day after tomorrow, and we have one more day tomorrow!"

However, after hearing his words, Zhang Yang shook his head, not that there was no time tomorrow, but it seemed that there was really no time, although he had already decided not to drive away from here tomorrow and wait here, but it would be enough to drive to the Northern Plains.

"No, my little piggy, although my husband knows that you also want to go, and I want to go too, but now we are followed by a group of wolves behind our butts, and there are a group of jackals in front of us, my plan tomorrow is that we will wait here, and it is best to think of a way to get the best of both worlds to solve these people behind the butt first, and then we can have time to go to the group of people in the live broadcast forest!"

This is really a wolf in front of a tiger in the back, no, it should be a bird in front of a bird and a bird in the back, although the group of guys in the forest can already confirm that they have guns on their bodies, and he doesn't know if the group of people behind the ass has weapons on them for the time being, but even if there is, these two groups of people will not take it to heart at all, and I will stay in the RV and not go out, and those people will not be able to attack anyway!

He Xiaoman's face flashed with a disappointed expression, but soon this disappointment was left behind by her, because just now because of the story Zhang Yang said, she also temporarily ignored the group of people behind her buttocks, nodded, although she was a little worried in her heart, but she was not so worried, she must know what the situation of her own RV is, as long as they don't go out, there can be no danger!

"Okay, then let's solve the matter here first, it's a big deal that we'll sit in the car then, and those stone jars here seem to be closer to us, hehe, this is only 30 kilometers away, it's a big deal, let's drive in directly at that time." ”

Speaking of this, as if remembering something again, He Xiaoman raised his head from Zhang Yang's arms, looked at him with a firm face and said.

"Even if we go out tomorrow, my wife and I can help, although I haven't practiced home yet, but I can definitely help you, hehe!"

Looking at He Xiaoman, who was not dissuading himself after encountering danger in his arms, but promised that he would definitely be able to help, Zhang Yang couldn't help but lower his head and gave a passionate deep kiss, and only raised his head after the person in his arms took a little breath, and said with a smile in the other party's slightly shy expression.

"That's right, my wife is also a master now, so she has to be able to help me!"

The last rays of the sunset disappeared into the sky, the night was getting thicker, but the roof terrace of the RV was brightly lit at this time, and the two people who were eating snacks in the evening breeze simply opened a bottle of red wine and drove the four little ones to the living room to play by themselves.

After a few glasses of red wine, He Xiaoman, who was blushing slightly, began to pester Zhang Yang and asked him to tell him more about the secrets of those stone jars, and Zhang Yang naturally knew everything and talked endlessly.

"In fact, the stone jars found in Sichuan Khouang Province at that time, to be precise, should now be called the stone jar array, or the thousand cylinder array, really speaking, these stone jars can be completely and the British Stonehenge, Chilean megalithic statues, South American stone circles of the 'world's four major stone puzzles', in the field of world archaeology that also occupies an important position.

At first, people began to pay attention to these stone jars when they discovered that the stone jars were composed of thousands of stone jars and were placed in a disorderly manner on the plains, especially after discovering that the texture of these stone jars was basically hard granite.

It's just that those stone jars can be said to be of different sizes, both round and square, and there are obvious traces of artificial carving, and later someone specially measured, the weight of these stone jars is very large, the small ones can reach more than one ton, and the large ones can reach more than five tons.

So at this time, an interesting question arises, that is, what exactly are the Laotian stone formations used for, and what is the meaning of their existence?"

This is completely a tea party that belongs to the family behind closed doors, when it is natural that it is not as straightforward as it was said in the live broadcast room, but can't help but have fun and fight with He Xiaoman one question and one answer.

"Didn't you just say that those stone jars were not used to hold the dead?"

"Did I say that?"

"You just said it, huh!"

"Alright then, even if I said it!"
