Chapter 458: Major Discoveries in Archaeological History
"You've already studied this Ding, haven't you?
I want to ask, is it the Jiuding of the legendary Dayu to control the water?"
After Han Xuan and the archaeological team members from Huaxia greeted him, they asked questions that had plagued him for a long time.
Professor Li Wenqing, who led the team this time, did not answer his question directly, but said: "From our previous archaeological experience, the imperial tombs of the Shang and Zhou dynasties should be cross-shaped tombs with four tomb lanes, representing the highest level.
There are only two burial tunnels here, and it may have been simplified considering that it was difficult to excavate the stone with the technology of the time.
The coffin is a box-shaped structure, and we haven't thought of a way to open it yet, it's well sealed, and maybe there's something to keep inside the coffin.
The number of oxidized bronze ritual vessels and weapons is quite large, which is in line with the characteristics of the tomb of the Son of Heaven in the Shang Dynasty.
The stone tablet at the door bears the name of the king of Xu, Dixin, and from all indications, this should be his tomb.
In historical documents, it is recorded many times that his son Wu Geng fled overseas with tens of thousands of people by boat, and some people say that King Xuan fled after the Battle of Muye.
If they had traveled by boat near the North Pacific Current, the current would have brought their ship from China all the way to North America.
Then the living customs of some Indians in North America are similar to our Chinese, and there are also items from the Shang and Zhou dynasties excavated from Central America and the United States, which can also be said. ”
The archaeologist, Wang Tianhua, also said: "I was in an Indian tribe in Guatemala and found that they used chopsticks to eat.
According to the record of "Han Feizi-Yu Lao": The former was like a chopstick, and the basket was terrifying.
This proves that in the 11th century B.C., chopsticks existed during the reign of the Shang Dynasty.
And they have also passed down a folk song from generation to generation, and the translator said to me, which means that they came there from the place where the sun set in a big boat.
China is on the west side of Central America, that is, they came from the east.
Coupled with the tomb of Dixin that has been discovered now, it is already certain that some of the North American Indians were Chinese immigrants more than 3,000 years ago.
As for whether this thing is Jiuding, I don't know. ”
Professor Li Wenqing said: "The inscription on this four-legged amphora is so old that no one can recognize what it is written, and it is different from the oracle bone inscription.
I think if there really is Jiuding in history, then it must be this thing.
Someone from the University of California took a sample and examined it, proving that it was at least 4,500 years old.
In the past, foreign countries did not recognize the 5,000-year history of China, but only recognized more than 3,000 years, but now we can push this time forward by more than 1,000 years!
This kind of tripod-making technology is not a civilization, so what can be considered a real civilization?
We're going to finish this tomb and publish it to the public!"
Han Xuan turned his head in English and said to the University of California researcher who was standing dumbfounded, waiting for the stammering translator to help, "Are you sure it's 4,500 years ago?"
"That's right, the results of the carbon 14 identification show that this tripod is not the same age as the other things in the tomb.
This tomb was built more than 3,000 years ago, and it's amazing!
It just blew me away!
The Indian chieftain's treasure above was built to bypass the fragile part of the tomb underground.
They must have known that there was something underneath, so they would have deliberately avoided it, otherwise it would have collapsed a long time ago!"
An old man muttered a long paragraph before he remembered to introduce himself: "I'm sorry, but I'm the dean of the Department of Archaeology and a professor of antiquities at the University of California, Santa Barbara, just call me Gordon."
They were my assistants and students, and they asked the Monterey town council to come over, and your father agreed. ”
The Santa Barbara campus had asked Han Xuan before, but he refused, so he added the last sentence.
Han Xuan originally wanted to go to see what the underground museum was built to look like, but after hearing Gordon say that he was still a professor of cultural relics, he asked, "Do you have any research on European oil painting?"
"Absolutely, it's a basic course, and I work as an appraiser at Sotheby's in the UK in my spare time. Professor Gordon asked, "What's wrong?"
"Wait, I'll get something for you. ”
After Han Xuan finished speaking, he raised his legs and walked out, and called his father on the way and asked him to drive the yacht back
When Han Xuan arrived at the dock, the Snow Mountain was preparing to dock.
Han Qianshan stood on the deck, surrounded by animals with excited expressions, and Pooh was so excited that he almost pushed him into the sea.
The boy's father went up and punched and kicked, and Pooh cooperated with a painful expression to satisfy him.
The little beluga whale skin flapped its pectoral fins on the surface of the sea by the pier, and its mouth imitated Snoopy's whin.
When I saw the boy again after more than a month, the word happy was written on my face.
Han Xuan smiled and stretched out his hand, leaned down and lay on the edge of the dock, touching its smooth skin, "You seem to have a good life recently, you look a little older, and your face is round." ”
Pipsqueak kindly put his head close to his hand, rubbing and rubbing.
The breath holes eject a fine mist of water that glows in the sun.
turned around and dived into the sea, and after a while, he bit a beautiful black ball and came up, and stretched its mouth full and bulged into a bun face.
Han Xuan subconsciously thought it was some kind of garbage, and opened his mouth to let Pippi spit it out, and its tail gently slapped the water and jumped out, throwing the black ball out, falling into the sea and splashing, and then being bitten by the little white whale.
It feels heavy, beckoning it to come over.
"Spit on, spit in my hands. ”
Pipsqueak, not knowing what he was saying, blinked his eyes and was about to scream, only to remember that he had something in his mouth and choked with nausea.
The black ball opened its mouth and fell into Han Xuan's palm.
Pooh and Fat Ding scrambled to wait for the yacht to be put in place, and then swarmed out and ran to their master.
Only the fat Ding is slow, look at its big belly, and those who don't know think it's pregnant.
Han Xuan understood that this product was overwhelmed, and he couldn't run with more fat.
Slapped twice on each of their heads as a gesture of kindness, and the last time they slapped McDull on the head one more time, Pooh and Obama instantly isolated the miniature donkey.
This group of little competing for favor is too scheming......
Seeing that Pooh was about to lick himself, Han Xuan was scared half to death, its tongue was like a needle, it was terrible!
Immediately pushed its head away and shouted, "Tongue retract, shut up." ”
Pooh hurriedly closed his mouth tightly.
Pippi found that Han Xuan had snatched his toy, his little eyes were pitiful, and he could cry at any time.
Like a poor puppy, whining.
And Han Xuan grabbed the black ball with a diameter of more than six centimeters, and shouted to his father: "Bring me the oil painting in my bedroom, the captain of the ship, Mr. Maschuani, knows where it is!"
Han Qianshan made an OK gesture and walked into the cabin.
A few meters away next to the Little Penguin.
Langdon, a student from the University of California, Irvine, who came to intern, said hello to Han Xuan, and accidentally saw the thing in his hand, and asked curiously: "Where did it come from?"
How is it so much like a pearl. ”
"Pearls?"
Han Xuan didn't think about it.
The ball in his hand was blackened and had some scratches on it, probably from Pip's teeth, or from the sea.
If you look closely, isn't this Nima just a pearl!) )
