Three hundred and thirteen chapters
Sanxingdui archaeological excavation base, in the suburbs of Guanghan, far from the city.
Guanghan got its name from "Guangzhi Han Water".
Around 4,800 years ago, the ancestors of the ancient Shu Kingdom worked hard, lived and multiplied in the Sanxingdui area with a radius of 6 square kilometers in Nanxing Town, Guanghan City, creating an early splendid ancient Shu culture.
Experts believe that the Sanxingdui area is likely to be an important capital of the early Shu Kingdom, and it is very likely that it is the former capital of the "Du Yu Clan" or the "Yu Yu Clan", and it was also the political, economic and cultural center of the ancient Shu Kingdom.
Du Yu and Yu Yu are not personal names, but the surnames of clans and tribes in ancient times.
These two clans were first seen in the "Book of the King of Shu" written by Yang Xiong, a Shu man at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, which recorded the stories of the monarchs of the Shu Kingdom.
In his book, he recorded that the Du Yu clan was the fourth clan to rule the Shu region.
Prior to this, it experienced the rule of the three clans of Silkworm Cong, Baiguan, and Yuyu.
After the reign of the Yu Yan clan, Shu entered a period of chaos, until a few years later, the legendary Du Yu descended from the sky and led the Shu people to vigorously develop agriculture, changing the people's previous way of life of "drinking blood from Rumao".
Du Yu was deeply supported by the people, so it was logical to become the new leader of Shu, and then led the Shu people to enrich the people and strengthen the army, and gradually established the first feudal state.
After the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, the Zhou royal family officially canonized Du Yu as the king of Shu, and Du Yu moved the capital to Piyi, and soon called himself Emperor Wang. Du Yu expanded countless territories throughout his life, and eventually established Shu as the most powerful country in the southwest.
According to the age of the distribution of the cultural layer on Sanxingdui.
If this history recorded at the end of the Western Han Dynasty is correct.
The Sanxingdui culture should be the civilization during the reign of the three clans of silkworm cong, baiguan and yuyu.
The Sanxingdui site on the Guanghan side, the sacrificial pits unearthed so far, are all sacrificial pits in the late Shang period.
Therefore, it is highly probable that the priest pit excavated now may be the capital of the "Du Yu clan" or the "Yu clan".
The time when the Yu clan was in should be the late Shang period.
The time of Du Yu's existence was in the early Zhou Dynasty, after all, he followed King Wu to fight the Shang Dynasty.
Of course, it is also possible that Du Yushi is already the successor of the Sanxingdui civilization.
Because the latest remnants of the Sanxingdui civilization, that is, the late Shang period, do not seem to have traces of the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty.
Perhaps the "Yuyu Clan" is the last tribe of the Sanxingdui civilization.
And the Du Yu clan that emerged later inherited the Sanxingdui civilization.
After Du Yu's clan, the enlightened clan that continued to inherit the Shu culture can be determined not to belong to the Sanxingdui civilization.
Because the last enlightened dynasty of Shu is clearly recorded.
The Enlightened Twelfth was destroyed by the Qin State, and if you extrapolate forward, the founding time of the Enlightened Dynasty of the Shu State should be in the early Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
That is, the Spring and Autumn Period, no more than the early Spring and Autumn period at the earliest, and no more than the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period at the latest.
At present, the main controversy in the academic community is whether Du Yushi is related to the Sanxingdui civilization.
And to determine this, it is necessary to find the capital and residential areas of the Sanxingdui ruins, and it is best to find the palace to see if there are any words left in it.
Yes.
Although the Sanxingdui site was discovered in 1929.
But so far, the capital of this site has not been excavated.
A hundred years have passed, and only two sacrificial pits have been dug at the Sanxingdui site.
The situation outside the sacrificial pit is not particularly well known to the archaeological community.
How did those bronzes in the sacrificial pit come from?
Where is the smelting workshop of the Sanxingdui civilization.
Where do people live.
And where is the burial area after death?
Where is the palace district.
These situations are still the same
Piece of mystery.
This is also why Sanxingdui is so well-known, but the public has never heard of the remains of Sanxingdui people.
Otherwise, there will be no legends on the Internet that the Sanxingdui people are aliens, different from humans, and have a pair of convex goldfish eyes.
It is because of the current Sanxingdui site, no burial area has been found.
The bones of a buried Sanxingdui man have not been found.
Unlike Yin Ruins, thousands of bones of martyrs and nobles were excavated, and some were human bone specimens.
However, the claim that an Aryan skull was found in the tomb of the woman is also a well-known rumor.
First of all, there were a total of 16 martyrs in the tomb of the woman, and 4 of them were children.
And among these 16 martyrs, the so-called white and Aryan genes were not detected at all.
So how did this rumor come about?
Since 1928, thousands of human bones have been unearthed in Yinxu.
Among them, there is the Anyang cemetery, and the Xin'anzhuang cemetery has the most human bones.
The scientific research team has come to a conclusion by measuring nearly 1,000 skulls in the sacrificial pit of Yinxu for many years.
The ethnic composition of Yinxu is actually very complex, and there are five in total.
They belong to the typical race (East Asian yellow race), and according to oracle bone records and isotope identification of strontium, these skulls should be from the ancient Qiang people.
Belongs to the Eskimo race of the race.
The third is a black race, but they are a black Pacific race, very similar to the Papuans of Oceania today, and are technically brown.
It is worth mentioning that the restored appearance of the black people in Oceania is close to the Hemudu people living in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River in the Neolithic culture of China.
Therefore, these black people in the burial pits of the merchants may come from the descendants of the Hemudu people, and during the Shang Dynasty, they should have belonged to the Yi group.
The fourth, a race of 1% Caucasian genes, belongs to the Mediterranean type, homologous to the Caucasian race that inhabits the Middle East and the Mediterranean Rim today.
It is also because of the discovery of this fourth race that there is a theory that there are white slave captives and burials in Yinxu.
Then this statement was reprocessed by the self-media and marketing accounts, and the white man was accurately identified as "Aryan", which completed the background, saying that he was a prisoner of war captured by a woman.
Eventually, it became such a rumor.
In fact, this kind of human beings with Caucasian genes were originally widely distributed in Gansu, Qinghai, Mongolia and other places at that time, and it can only be said that it is normal to be captured by merchants.
In fact, it really has nothing to do with white people in Europe and the United States.
This is like the "blacks" in Hemudu, and it has nothing to do with the blacks in Africa.
At the beginning, Homo sapiens went to the world twice from Africa, and all genes were left in the world, and now modern yellow people also have some genes like Europeans, is it difficult to say that the Chinese are also white?
However, Yinxu can at least find so many racial genes that can determine the genetic origin of the merchants.
Compared with it, the progress of Sanxingdui civilization is relatively slow.
Up to now, no burial area has been found, and no human bones of a Sanxingdui person have been found, and it is still a mystery about what the genes of Sanxingdui people are.
