Chapter 403: A Masterpiece of Innovation
"The reason why we are sure that it is the ancient country of Huaxu, naturally there is direct evidence......"
At this time, Professor Chen's face was full of red light, as if he was more than ten years younger. He looked around to the left and right, and in the midst of everyone's burning gaze, he waved his hand and said, "Bring things up......"
What could it be?
Under the gaze of everyone, behind the rostrum, three or four young men came up carrying something. It seemed that the thing was quite heavy, and it took a few young and strong men to move it over with some effort.
Everyone was curious, and couldn't help but take two more photos.
Boom!
After a while, the thing was placed on the stage, and there was a dull sound.
Now, everyone is even more curious.
It's a pity that there is also a layer of cloth on the things.
Everyone's eyes can't see through, so they naturally can't see through what is under the thick cloth.
When everyone is looking forward to piercing and wants to urge.
Professor Chen pulled it directly.
Thick cloth flying......
Everyone looked at each other and let out a cry of amazement.
This is......
A slate.
The large bluestone material is hard and heavy.
It is three meters long, two meters wide, and more than twenty centimeters thick.
Such a material is often used in temples and Taoist temples and cemeteries to serve as stone tablets.
The problem is that on the slate...... It's gray, there's nothing.
Everyone was stunned......
Without waiting for them to question, Professor Chen smiled and beckoned again.
At this time, a person next to him handed over a towel, a towel soaked in water, wet.
Professor Chen took the wet towel and gently wiped it directly on the stone surface. At this moment, everyone concentrated, and you could see that on the flat stone surface, there were suddenly more shallow carvings.
“…… Ahh
Someone had sharp eyes and immediately shouted: "Patterns, a lot of patterns." ”
Others are white-eyed, but they are not blind, and naturally they can see clearly. I saw that the slate was soaked in wet water, and a very neat and dense pattern appeared.
Professor Chen kept wiping, and the patterns on the slate became more and more.
There are also people who see more clearly.
They were surprised to find that a large stone slab was full of ...... Round.
The perfect circle, as well as the half-moon, and the crescent-like shape.
…… Wait a minute.
In an instant, someone suddenly brightened up and said in surprise: "This is...... Moon change chart. From the first quarter of the moon, to the full moon, and then to the second quarter, it is very detailed. ”
"Hey, really. ”
The others were ashamed and reacted one after another.
But......
Some people also think it is strange that there are too many moon changing patterns on the slate.
In a month, up to 30 patterns can express the change of the moon. But looking at the stone slab, a dense pile of moons, there are at least hundreds of patterns.
Is it necessary, portrayal so much?
Someone wondered......
There were also people who had a flash of inspiration, their eyes widened, and they were excited and excited, and exclaimed, "No, this is ...... Calendar, the most primitive calendar of antiquity...... Lunar calendar?"
"Huh?"
When everyone heard this, they were shocked.
"Haha!"
Professor Chen smiled and approvingly, "Clever." ”
It's the rhythm of confirmation.
What a calendar......
For a moment, there was an uproar and exclamation.
Perhaps modern people have become accustomed to the calendar.
At most, some people wonder why the country implements a dual calendar system, with the Gregorian calendar as the main and the lunar calendar as the supplement.
Ordinary people don't care too much, they only care about how many holidays there are every year.
However, in ancient times, especially in agrarian societies, the establishment of the calendar was the most important thing related to people's livelihood, and it cannot be overstated.
What's more, the astronomical observation, after being linked to the divine authority of the monarch, adheres to the idea of the unity of heaven and man.
The emperor governs the country, and it must be combined with the calendar and celestial phenomena.
Over time, the observation of time has evolved into a very important political task.
In this case, who dares to slacken.
Therefore, a group of reporters present were very aware of the importance and necessity of the calendar in ancient times.
Right now......
A very primitive calendar table appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
This naturally makes everyone extremely excited.
“…… As we all know, we are one of the first countries in the world to invent the calendar. ”
Professor Chen also talked eloquently: "In ancient times, according to the needs of different agricultural and animal husbandry production conditions, our country produced the solar calendar and the lunar calendar respectively. ”
"As a traditional calendar, it is impossible to know when it first originated, but according to the unearthed oracle bone inscriptions and the records in many ancient historical materials, we can reasonably infer ......"
"The ancients were the earliest, and they should have invented the lunar calendar first. ”
"After all, looking up at the starry sky, the moon is big, white, round and bright, and the cycle is endless, and it is relatively easy to summarize the rules. ”
Professor Chen said with a smile: "From this point of view, the lunar calendar is the origin of the calendar, and there should be no controversy. ”
"For this reason, when we dug up this calendar tablet, we immediately found a treasure. Then I found many calendar experts and scholars to study the ......"
"In the end, it was determined that this was a calendar that was different from the ancient six calendars. It is completely different from the calendar after Xia Shang. It's not the legendary Fuxi Jia calendar, or the Nuwa Taiyin lunar calendar......"
"Then study the rules and deduce the duration and time of it, and the changes in the moon and so on......"
"There is no doubt that from the details, we can know that in this calendar, there is no concept of months, only the cycle of weeks and years, that is, the law of years. ”
From this, experts conclude that this is definitely one of the original calendars. ”
Professor Chen smiled: "To a certain extent, it is also the creation of the ancients. ”
"The calendar is a sign of the maturity of a civilization. 8,000 to 10,000 years ago, in the entire Yellow River Basin, large and small tribes, I am afraid that only the legendary ancient kingdom of Huaxu had such a crystallization of wisdom. ”
"In addition, many cultural relics unearthed all show that the location of the ancient country is in the stage of transformation from a matrilineal society to a patrilineal society......
"Specific characteristics are ......"
“…… Cultural relics features!"
"Tile Pottery Patterns, Totem Analysis ......"
“…… Primordial Thor Worship!"
"Combining Ancient Texts ......"
"To sum up, we boldly speculate that the cultural relics of XXX Mountain are the legendary ruins of the ancient country of Huaxu!"
Professor Chan's tone was impassioned.
But at the bottom, a group of reporters were directly stunned. After making trouble for a long time, listing a bunch of evidence, and rambling for a long time.
Dare to be a guess.
The crowd was speechless.
But...... It's okay.
At least that sounds like some of the truth.
Moreover......
It's a good thing to be controversial.
Whether the ancient city under the sea is Tangya or not is also controversial.
A golden scepter, the evidence is too thin, and the persuasiveness itself is not enough. But people, daring to shout this slogan, immediately detonated the enthusiasm of the whole people.
Obviously, Professor Chen and others followed suit.
Readers laughed and knew what to do.
