If you dig a well, you will never get into the tomb without knowing it.

Even in the Han Dynasty, there were pit tombs made of wood that were sealed on top of the tomb.

As long as you hit it, you will definitely find that something is wrong.

Only if it's a tomb robber who originally came to the tomb, it doesn't matter.

And I didn't bother to backfill the thief hole afterwards, so I put the thief hole there.

Like the king's tomb, the depth is more than ten meters or even more than twenty meters, and the unaware villagers stand on the top of the robbery cave and look down, but they can only see a piece of darkness, and they can't see the situation in the cave at all.

In addition, the peasant people of 300 years ago did not have a wide understanding of tomb robbers like modern people, and when they saw a deep hole that was wrong, they would think of the link of cave robbery.

In addition, it coincided with the chaotic war at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and when the situation calmed down and the local area returned to normal order, later people did not know what the situation of this "well" was, so they naturally used it.

It's really a sip of dungeon water, and generations have come to taste it.

After listening to the story in its entirety, the audience in the live broadcast room immediately vomited.

This story is really disgusting!

Even just imagining that picture, everyone can't stand it.

Some netizens who originally had the mentality of watching the excitement of the tomb robbers and didn't care about it now immediately turned against them.

No one wants this to happen to them!

Think about it, if you drink the water in the tomb for several generations because of the hole left by the tomb robbers, how devastating would it be?

"Why did the archaeology start when the tomb was stolen?"

"Why didn't the state discover it in time, and then seal the underground palace or excavate it and send it to the museum?"

"Why does archaeology always follow tomb robbing?"

"Watching the news, there is always a tomb stolen somewhere, and archaeologists only intervene, can't they be one step ahead of tomb robbers?"

All kinds of questions about why tomb robbers were so rampant flooded the live broadcast room at once.

Seeing this scene, Chen Han was not only not angry, but very pleased.

It is a good reaction for netizens to start paying attention to tomb robbers and Chinese archaeological work!

He explained very seriously:

"I must admit that there is a phenomenon of archaeology following the excavation."

"But there's a reason for that."

"For the archaeological team, on the one hand, there are many tasks at present, and there is a shortage of manpower, and it is only responsible for carrying out exploration and rescue excavations in cooperation with infrastructure projects in various places, which occupies most of the time and energy of archaeologists."

On the other hand, archaeological excavation itself is actually a kind of "destruction", and in the process of archaeological work in China, there have been many problems of poor protection of sites after excavation. ”

"Therefore, at this stage, Chinese archaeology is trying to work on the basis of protective and rescue excavations."

"Under normal circumstances, it is not actively looking for ancient tombs that have not been destroyed for excavation, it is a passive mode."

"But tomb robbers are different, tomb robbers are all over the country to find ancient tombs that have not been destroyed to steal!"

"Although the state has increased the investment in the protection of cultural relics and archaeology in recent years, the cultural preservation departments in various places are also expanding."

"But the lack of manpower is still the biggest problem that plagues our work."

"Archaeology is not just excavation, it is a systematic discipline that includes a series of links such as field archaeology, cultural relics restoration, and cultural relics protection."

"Compared with foreign countries, China has the longest history and the heaviest archaeological burden, but there is a serious shortage of archaeological professionals!"

"The Department of Archaeology of Cairo University in Egypt recruits 500 students every year, and there are only more than 20 universities in China with archaeology majors, and the total number of students cannot catch up with the number of students enrolled in the Department of Archaeology of Cairo University in a year."

"In addition, due to various reasons, only some of the archaeology graduates in our country are engaged in archaeological work."

"Therefore, there is a serious shortage of manpower in institutions such as cultural preservation offices in various places, and it is overstretched to protect some tombs of the Ming and Qing dynasties that still have ground buildings."

"What's more, those early tombs that have long been submerged in the countryside cannot be patrolled every day."

"This is also the reason why the tombs of the Han and Tang dynasties and even earlier were stolen very seriously, but the tombs of the Ming and Qing dynasties were well preserved."

Chen Han finally saw the poor dagger, exposing his biggest goal of this live broadcast.

Pull heads for archaeology-related majors!

Now there is a real shortage of people in the archaeology profession in China!

The audience in the live broadcast room, after seeing Chen Han's intentions, also discussed one after another.

"Is there such a shortage of people?"

"What industry doesn't say it's short of people now?"

"Everyone says that there is a shortage of people in their majors, and it is very easy to find a job after graduation, and then the students are fooled into studying, and after graduation, they become cattle and horses, with the least salary, and do the most work!"

"Archaeology still sounds cool, and it's a little bit exciting to be able to excavate with a certificate."

"I heard that it is easier to take the public examination for archaeology majors, and some special civil service positions only require graduates of archaeology-related majors!"

"Yes, yes, a friend of mine who works in the customs said that they are particularly short of civil servants in the field of archaeology, and they have not been recruited for three years."

Half of the audience felt that Chen Han was exaggerating, and he was the same as other people who persuaded people to study finance, civil engineering, biology, and medicine, just to collect more free labor for good work.

The other half are viewers who seem to have learned about archaeology on a daily basis, echoing and lamenting the lack of people in the field of archaeology.

In fact, Chen Han didn't tell any lies, and everything he said was true.

Compared with the field of cultural relics protection, the front-line workers who go to the construction site to carry out archaeological excavations are really not much lacking, after all, there are so many archaeological institutes in various places, even if the state has increased investment and expansion in recent years, but it is relatively easy to recruit people.

What is really lacking in the archaeological system now is young people who are willing to devote themselves to the protection of cultural relics!

Local cultural preservation departments and institutions, especially in several major archaeological provinces, are really very short of people.

The protection of existing and identified tombs, as well as ancient ruins, monuments, ancient cities and other facilities, is a matter of great need for manpower.

Not to mention, you also need to play a game with tomb robbers to prevent wandering tomb robbers from digging holes everywhere.

In addition, there is also a shortage of people in museums around the country, cultural relics restoration institutions, and cultural relics management and research institutions!

Even the public security and customs departments are lacking!

Because of the smuggling of cultural relics, people in the field of archaeology are also needed to assist in the investigation!

Chen Han took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and slowly took out examples to prove to the audience how scarce domestic archaeological professionals are.

"Let me give you an example, you know how short of cultural preservation staff in China is now."

"In 2015, the police cracked a major criminal case involving cultural relics in Northeast China that caused a sensation in the archaeological community."

"175 criminal suspects were arrested, and 1,168 pieces of cultural relics involved in the case were recovered!"

"What they stole and excavated was the ancient ruins of Niuheliang Hongshan Culture, which has a history of 5,000 years."

"This site covers a wide range and is scattered all over the border of the three provinces, so it is not easy to protect, and it has found an opportunity for the tomb robber gang."

"You know, it's not just archaeologists who use the power of science and technology to continuously improve and upgrade archaeological methods."

"The poachers are constantly updating their criminal methods, and they have a lot of archaeological knowledge and even use a lot of technology."

"A total of ten tomb robbers were arrested this time, and the number one leader was even called "the ancestor of the tomb robbery world" by them! ”

"This ancestor master, according to the confession, he has rich experience in determining the location of ancient tombs and ruins, and he can be separated from the assistance of the compass instrument, and can directly follow the trend of mountains and rivers and the position of the sun, moon and stars, and can make a general positioning."

"To be honest, many of our archaeologists are not as good as him."

"In addition, some of these criminal gangs have begun to use technology to carry out theft."

"Many tomb robbers buy relevant equipment from somewhere abroad, and each piece of equipment is priced at about 18,000 yuan, which can be called the pioneer of domestic scientific and technological tomb robbery."

"With the blessing of this technology and ancestral tomb robbing skills, this group of criminal gangs can be said to be invincible, and wherever they rob, they are rampant!"

"In contrast, our official cultural protection staff have the problem of lack of personnel and equipment, and they have no way to deal with this group of criminal gangs, and they are overstretched."

"By the time they were captured, the ancient ruins of Heliang Hongshan Culture were already scarred."

"If there were enough cultural preservation staff in the three northeastern provinces at that time, and enough people in the police department who knew how to identify cultural relics, this criminal gang would have been quickly arrested and brought to justice!"

"So, all the viewers and friends who are watching the live broadcast, if you are interested in archaeology and history, please sign up for related majors in the field of archaeology and cultural relics!"

"After completing the study, you can enter the career editor, and you can also take the civil service exam, which is definitely an industry with very stable employment prospects!"
