In his hand, Aturu held a piece of copper covered in blue-brown patina, the end of which was wrapped in two pieces of earthy yellow like a handle. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Sergeant Smith didn't bother to tease him anymore, and took the copper plate and looked at it carefully.

Seeing that his discovery had successfully aroused everyone's interest, Aturu trembled: "The reason why I gasped for breath was not because I was running, but because I was excited, I was excited!" ”

Wang Bo nodded and said, "Very good, Atulu, you have made meritorious service, where did you find this?" Is it a corpse's weapon? I think it's a copper knife, what do you guys think? ”

Aturu shook his head and said, "No, it's not a copper knife, it's Kuisata!" ”

"What is Kuisata?" Wang Bo was stunned.

Sergeant Smith helped him explain, "It's a Maori term that translates to a war cane or a battle scepter, similar to the current military flag. ”

"In early Maori tribal warfare, this thing was often controlled by the warriors of the tribe, with tribal totem flags tied to it, and the warriors held it in the front of the charge when fighting."

Speaking of this, Sheriff Smith was amazed: "It's also the first time I've seen this thing with my own eyes, Aturu, is this really Kuisata?" ”

Aturu patted the two lumps of fat on his chest, and swore with a full face: "Absolutely, I swear to the great god Mori, this is Kuisata, you look at the handle, this is made of rhinoceros horn." ”

Wang Bo was surprised: "Rhino horn? How can there be rhino horn in New Zealand? ”

New Zealand is far from the mainland, and there are no large beasts of prey on the surrounding islands.

Aturu shook his head to indicate that he didn't know either, and Sheriff Smith said, "He's right, if this is Kuisata, then the handle is made of rhinoceros horn." As for where the Maori got the rhinoceros horn at that time, there is no written record and it has become an unsolved mystery. ”

Wang Bo didn't know what Kuisata meant, and when Ramon learned the identity of the thing, he immediately asked the assistants to carry the skeleton down again, and then cleaned it up again and studied it carefully.

Soon, Ramon, who was holding a magnifying glass, shouted: "Keep digging, the cause of this man's death is a wound, come, look at his left eye socket, there is a small wound, this is a sharp arrow or something that pierced the eye and destroyed the cerebellum." ”

Aturu explained to Wang Bo that Kwai Sata was similar to a battle flag to the Maori tribe, this thing was very important, it could not be lost, and it was not displayed in normal times, and only when there was a war between the tribes, would the warriors carry the charge.

Now that Kuisata has been found underneath this skeleton, it is likely that the owner of this skeleton is a tribal warrior, so it is speculated that there may have been a war here five or six hundred years ago.

Warriors had a very high status among the Maori tribes, and it was impossible for them to be abandoned in the wilderness after being killed in battle, but Kuisata was an important item for the tribe, and the burial warriors would not use it to accompany the burial.

Unless, unless, there has been a terrible war here, which has resulted in the extermination of one tribe or even the death of both tribes, that can reasonably explain the situation where the corpses of the warriors are together.

Conley took people back to get shovels and other tools, more than a dozen people scattered to dig, at first there was no harvest, after more than half an hour, the surrounding land has been dug potholes, still no harvest......

Sheriff Smith held on to his shovel and said, "Maybe we guessed wrong, this is not an ancient battlefield. ”

Ramon also smiled: "Yes, it is impossible for so many miracles to appear in the territory of Sunset Town, the gold mine is already there, if there is an ancient battlefield, it is really incredible." ”

Since there was no gain, Wang Bo did not force it, so he shrugged his shoulders and prepared to leave.

At this time, Aturu shouted: "There are discoveries, there are discoveries, dig deeper, come and see, there are some bones here!" ”

Wang Bo threw down the shovel and ran over to take a look, the Maori man really made a meritorious service this time, he was sweating profusely, and dug a pit more than one meter deep, and some gray-brown dry bones appeared in the pit, which looked like humerus.

After the group carefully excavated around the pit, two skeletons appeared, tangled together, one of which broke several ribs, apparently suffering serious injuries before death.

In this way, the fact that there is an ancient battlefield nearby is almost certain, but because of the passage of time and the vicissitudes of life, the battlefield is deeply buried in the ground.

Five or six hundred years is too long, the climate of the South Island is rainy and humid, except for the bones, their clothes and weapons are almost rotten.

Wang Bo dug with great interest for a while, but he still didn't get anything here, so he became bored.

After the representative harvest, Ramon and the others were not interested in continuing to excavate, and they left with Kuisata and four skeletons—Uncle Bing had dug up another one.

They all underestimated the influence of the ancient battlefield, New Zealand is a country with no history, and although the Maori are not the mainstream of society, they do have some history.

So, the country values the Maori past, and the reason why the whites eventually reconciled with the Maori is also the reason why they want to integrate their history.

In the morning, the bones and ancient battlefields were discovered, and in the afternoon of the same day, the Herald received the news that Charlie's beautiful lover Britney called and said that she would come here to report the news immediately.

The next day, the New Zealand Archaeological Research Institute and the Institute of History and Culture sent teams to excavate the ancient battlefield.

The Greens reacted when they got the news, and Alexander and his wife said that they would come over to see the situation on the ancient battlefield and ask him to protect the scene.

Wang Bo asked the people around him strangely: "What are they doing here?" Do New Zealanders take history so seriously? ”

"Of course, New Zealanders love sport and fun, but the most aspiring thing is history and culture."

Na Qingyang shook his head: "But Vajona, they are not here for this purpose, they want a spotlight, it can be predicted that many reporters and media will come to Sunset Town in the next few days, which can bring them huge exposure." ”

The next day, even though there were still signs on the side of Route 8 that said 'Dangerous Road Conditions', there was still a steady stream of cars driving along the road.

The people from the Archaeological Bureau and the Cultural Institute were the most anxious, they arrived in the morning, that is to say, they set off from last night, Wang Bo had to admire the enthusiasm of these people.

These people came to Sunset Town with professional tools, a large truck pulled by a small car, and a trailer towing a small excavator.

After arriving at Sunset Town, they contacted Wang Bo and then fenced off the area where the bones were issued.

Wang Bo stopped them and said, "Why do you want to surround my land? ”

An old professor with gray hair said, "Sir, there may be a glorious history hidden here, don't you want it to reappear in the public eye?" ”

Lao Wang smiled brightly: "What does this have to do with my town?" All I was concerned about was the destruction of my town by storm. (To be continued.) )
