Chapter 154: Questioned
Leaving the tomb of the woman, saying goodbye to Lao Ge, and refusing the remuneration he offered, Zhang Yang, He Xiaoman and the family of three came to the parking lot and returned to the RV after parting.
At this time, it was only about three o'clock in the afternoon, and when I opened the car door, I was immediately warmly welcomed by the two little ones.
"Boss, boss, hurry up and cook for us, that rhubarb guy has eaten most of the meat you made, and I'm about to starve to death my grandson!"
"Boss, don't blame me, I'm so hungry today!"
He Xiaoman followed Zhang Yang to get into the car, but as soon as he got in the car, he heard two little guys yelling at Zhang Yang there, and he couldn't help but look at Zhang Yang suspiciously and asked when he had just taken off half of his shoes.
"What's wrong with the two of them? It can't be hungry, right?"
Thinking of such a large piece of meat left by Zhang Yang before leaving, He Xiaoman felt that he should not be hungry, and he didn't expect Zhang Yang to answer, after all, he couldn't have thought that Zhang Yang actually understood the language of beasts.
"It's okay, these two guys are hungry when they look at it, it should be that we didn't have much to eat when we left in the morning, I'll get them something to eat later!"
After speaking, Zhang Yang took off his shoes and put on slippers, went over to wash his hands and opened the refrigerator to get some food for the two little guys, anyway, he and He Xiaoman didn't eat at noon, just had a belated lunch.
He didn't make this meal too complicated, just stewed some rice and simply fried three dishes, but when he put the meal on the table and was ready to eat, a group of people who questioned him suddenly appeared in the live broadcast room, anyway, it was not a troll.
"Brother Yang, first of all, I am not a troll, but I am a little unhappy in my heart, don't they all say that archaeologists are legitimate tomb robbers?"
"That's it, the ancestor left so many things, just let these things be buried in the ground, why do you have to dig them out?"
"It's not easy to talk about archaeology, so why don't they stop this work?"
"In the same way, I have this doubt, I have always thought that the profession of archaeology should not exist!"
"There is no destruction without archaeology!"
After the first barrage appeared, it seemed that one stone stirred up a thousand waves, and many people who did not support archaeology came out one after another, feeling that this industry should not exist.
Zhang Yang, who had just picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat, had to put the chopsticks down again, called in the drone hovering in the air outside, included himself in the picture of the live broadcast room, and said with a serious face.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, a scholar named Lu Dalin, who studied archaeology in this area and wrote a book "Archaeological Map".
Of course, the technology at that time could not be compared with the current high technology, and only some buried cultural relics could be studied and analyzed, which of course also showed that there was a certain understanding of archaeology in ancient times.
And our country is not the first country to carry out archaeology, the first archaeological country originated in the West, because of the chaotic colonial rule at that time, the cemetery was excavated, and there was also a series of graveyards stolen with burial goods.
Archaeology is actually a form of face-to-face communication between modern people and ancient people, although we are living beings, they are a dead corpse, but we can judge the identity of the tomb owner from its tomb and burial goods, and can also infer some economic conditions and social environment of the era in which the tomb owner lived. ”
Zhang Yang introduced the historical status of the profession of archaeology, and briefly talked about why archaeology, but there were still people in the live broadcast room who did not understand.
"That's not tomb robbing, it's destruction, why do you have to know the history of ancient times? ”
"That's it, just develop backwards, for example, we are dead now, and after a few hundred years, we will be dug up and exhibited, and I feel uncomfortable thinking about it. ”
"That's it, why ?!!?"
Zhang Yang didn't expect that his explanation was still not recognized by a small number of people, although he could completely ignore it and ignore it, but thinking of the hardships of Lao Ge and them, he couldn't help but say.
"There are really misconceptions about the profession of archaeologists, archaeologists excavate ancient tombs, and the obvious difference between those who rob tombs is that one is above board and the other is secret.
Archaeologists are excavating and inspecting ancient tombs in legal procedures, not wantonly destruction, but for the protection and preservation of the excavated cultural relics.
And if archaeologists don't excavate these tombs and protect them, who can guarantee that those tomb robbers won't wreak havoc when they find them?
Even some archaeological excavations of the tombs are due to natural disasters or man-made disasters accidentally, and because of this accident, if those cultural relics are not immediately protected, it is easy to have all kinds of problems, so that our country loses a number of precious cultural relics, so you understand. ”
"That's right, I'll understand that way. ”
"In other words, in order to prevent personal excavation, it is best to be officially excavated in advance to protect it, which is also good. ”
"Understood, by the way, Brother Yang, I deliberately went to check the Simu Rong Ding you mentioned before, but didn't I call it the stepmother Rong Ding on the Internet?"
"Our teacher also said before that it was the stepmother Rong Ding!"
After Zhang Yang finished speaking, seeing that the people in the live broadcast room no longer questioned it, he breathed a sigh of relief and was about to continue eating, when several barrages came out, completely interrupting the rhythm of his meal.
Zhang Yang, who was speechless, simply poured the rice in the bowl into the rice bowl of the two little guys, then ran over to find some snacks, opened the door of the RV, sat on the steps and ate the potato chips in his hand, anyway, it was convenient.
He Xiaoman saw that Zhang Yang suddenly became busy again, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Brother Yang, can't you deal with it later? Come over and eat first, don't eat snacks, how unhealthy it is!"
Zhang Yang turned around and smiled at He Xiaoman, and raised the potato chips in his hand.
"It's okay, I haven't eaten at noon anyway, it's not healthy anymore, just have some snacks to solve it, indulge it once in a while, and I'll explain it to them." ”
After saying that, he unscrewed Fanta, his favorite apple-flavored Fanta, which was placed next to him, took a beautiful puff, swallowed the potato chips in his mouth, and began another round of explanations.
"Simu Wuding is currently known to be the heaviest bronze in ancient times in our country, and its name is based on the inscription on the inner wall of the copper tripod according to the convention, in fact, there has been controversy about its name, and I blame that I did not explain it to you before.
Now I will send out a photo of the inscription on the inner wall of the copper tripod, and everyone will know it at a glance. ”
Saying that, Zhang Yang picked up his mobile phone for a while, sent a photo to the live broadcast room, and always locked it on the screen, all of which naturally had a systematic operation.
"I'll go, this word looks like 'division'. ”
"How did you get the word 'after'?"
"Just listen to Brother Yang, we don't need to fight. ”
"That's it, you're wasting that time, it's better to listen to Brother Yang directly, and when the time comes, let's remember to go out and pretend to be something." ”
Seeing that everyone in the live broadcast room saw the text on the photo, Zhang Yang continued to speak.
"I said before that the Yin Shang period used the oracle bone inscription, and now I will call it Simu Wuding, this is actually because in the late Shang period of casting, whether it is the oracle bone inscription or the golden inscription, there is a positive and negative situation, yes, you are not mistaken, you have not heard wrong, that is, the positive and negative can be used.
The photo has been sent to the live broadcast room, you can see it yourself, there are some oracle comparisons in it.
In other words, the glyph in the inscription that seems to be 'Si' is actually a variant of 'Hou', and it is precisely because of this that the naming of Simu Wuding has been controversial from the beginning.
In addition to the glyphs, the reason why opponents question the name 'Simu Wuding' is that 'Si' can also be interpreted as 'Hou', and more importantly, many scholars believe that in terms of the interpretation of the meaning of the inscription, 'Houmu Wuding' is also more reasonable than 'Simu Wuding'. ”
After saying this, Zhang Yang paused, smiled at He Xiaoman, who didn't know when he came to him, took a sip of water and continued.
