Chapter 296 Chinese Characteristic Lead Barium Glass System
In the Western Han Dynasty, there was an unspoken rule for the removal of liehous.
Unless it is an unpardonable sin, such as disrespecting ancestors, such as rebellion, rebellion, etc.
Otherwise, those who lose their titles because of some ordinary crimes, or are implicated, can generally be restored to their titles when the next emperor is in power.
For example, Xiao He's heirs have four generations who lost their titles because of crimes and were extinct.
But the Emperor of Han always looked for Xiao He's descendants and re-named the Marquis.
Another example is the Marquis of Zhou Bo's family, after Zhou Bo's death, the heir of his son Zhou Sheng, died for murder, and the country was extinct.
Later, Emperor Wen named Zhou Yafu, the second son of Zhou Bo, Hanoi Taishou Zhou Yafu, as the Marquis of Tiao, and continued to be the Marquis of Jiang.
Then because of the abolition of the crown prince, Zhou Yafu offended the emperor and was starved to death, after Zhou Yafu's death, the title was interrupted for a year, and Emperor Jing named Zhou Yafu's son as the Marquis of Pingqu, continuing the title of Marquis of Jiang.
The inheritance of these two princely lineages did not involve the great crime of rebellion and were expelled from the country.
Although the country has been removed, the emperor will soon find another person from the side branch to inherit the title, just change the name of the marquis.
After all, in the eyes of the Western Han people, the abstinence of sacrifices for future generations is very, very disrespectful to the ancestors, and even a matter of guilt against the ancestors.
If it weren't for the big mistake, the general emperor would not really let these people who had contributed to the Han family and society really never get sacrifices again.
The same is true of the Marquis of Haidu.
Although Liu He was quickly removed from the country by Emperor Xuan of Han after his death.
But when Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty, that is, the son of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, the Marquis of Haihuang was restored, and Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty re-named Liu Daizong, the son of Liu He, as the Marquis of Haihuang.
After the restoration, until the new Mang usurped the Han, the Marquis of Haiyang was abolished again.
But when Liu Xiu established the Eastern Han Dynasty and restored the Liu family, Liu Huiyi, the grandson of Liu Daizong, was restored to the Marquis of Haidu.
It was not until the sixteenth year of Yongyuan of the Eastern Han Dynasty (104 AD) that the Marquis of Haiyang was really extinct, and it was finally abolished.
The Marquis of Haiyang was also divided into two counties, Jianchang and Haiding.
And the reason why the Marquis of Haidun was able to recover after being abolished.
There is a big reason, that is, because when Liu He was alive, he did not show any disrespect for Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.
Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty asked him to do whatever he wanted.
Now you can add one.
Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty did not give him a yellow intestine inscription, nor did he have a golden jade clothes, but Liu He also gladly accepted it.
Although Liu He reserved space for the yellow intestine inscription in his tomb.
But this just shows that when he was alive, he once dreamed that Emperor Xuan of Han could restore his status as a prince and king and re-crown him as king, so when he built the tomb, he left room for the yellow intestine inscription.
He was just afraid that if he was restored to the throne by Emperor Xuan of Han when he was old, and as a result, the tombs were built, and there was no way to put the yellow intestine in it, wouldn't he have to regret dying?
That's why he reserved space for the yellow intestine question, not because he wanted to use the yellow intestine for himself.
It is also this Liu He, who has been the emperor for 27 days and the prince and king for more than ten years, who is still respectful after being deposed and demoted to the Marquis of Haidu, and has not the slightest rebellion and disobedience.
Only then did Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty succeed to the throne and rethink this cousin who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and then restored the Hou State to him.
Everyone, if Liu He dares to use the yellow intestine to make up the inscription privately, or make a jade dress by himself, even if it is a glass jade clothes.
This kind of thing must not be hidden from the Central Committee of the Western Han Dynasty.
The Marquis of Haidu, it is categorically impossible to exist anymore.
How can it be inherited from the Western Han Dynasty to the Eastern Han Dynasty as in history?
......
The glass jade piece in the coffin that was close to the bottom of the coffin, although it was difficult to extract, and the piece near the foot had already decayed into white mud.
But no matter how difficult things are, they can't be difficult for archaeologists.
Although the whole of the extraction
, which was put on hold for the time being.
But it's okay to extract a small piece and conduct scientific research.
Under the guidance of Kong Jianwen, Chen Han extracted a piece of glazed jade from the head of the glazed jade mat that had been crushed.
The glazed jade piece was crushed in half.
After taking out half of it, Chen Han followed Kong Jianwen to a special laboratory on the third floor of the archaeological base.
In the laboratory, Mr. Guan Shaofan, an associate professor from Capital University of Science and Technology and a well-known expert in the field of metallurgical archaeology, has been waiting here for a long time.
When Chen Han and Kong Jianwen presented this piece of glazed jade, Guan Shaofan's expression was pleasantly surprised.
Because of this sample, it's really beautiful.
The cleaned sample is crystal clear, very beautiful, and looks a lot like jade tablets.
"If you don't say it, I think it's a piece of jade!"
Guan Shaofan smiled and praised the glass production process of BC, and at the same time placed this sample under a portable microscope.
Really.
The ultra-fine form of the sample under the microscope does not show the characteristics of jade.
In order to determine exactly what composition of this piece of glass is a piece of glass.
Soon, Guan Shaofan used an electronic probe detector to conduct another test.
When an electron probe is used, the specific composition of the sample is clear at a glance.
This piece of glass has a very high lead barium content.
Lead and barium are the main components that make up this glass piece.
This is obviously very consistent with the lead barium glass system that was more common in ancient China and has Chinese cultural and scientific characteristics!
That is, glass!
Glass and glass look like though.
But in fact, the ingredients of the two are different.
Glass contains crystallization, and after crystallization, it will cause its transparency, which is not as good as glass.
But that's not a bad thing.
Because the glass contains a lot of crystals, it can show a lot of bright and beautiful colors.
The more common ones are green, cyan, and red glass.
This is something that glass can't do.
Glass is mainly transparent, even if it is tinted glass, it is still transparent, but in the case of transparency, some more color is added.
Common ones are the big green sticks that are commonly used in beer.
Although it is green, it is actually transparent, and you can see through the bottle.
But the glass is different.
Glazed tiles, when viewed with the naked eye, are opaque.
However, glass can transmit light, although the light transmittance is not as good as glass, but it is also very good.
In the 14th and 15th centuries, many Western churches actually used Chinese lead barium glass, that is, colored glass, to build church windows.
In this way, you can't see the inside of the church from the outside, but the light can shine through the glass.
It's very theological.
After all, in the legend of Westerners, the brilliance, the light and the gods are somewhat touched.
Opaque but transparent glass can magnify the magic of "light", and it is naturally loved by theology.
