Judging from the logic of the unearthed cultural relics in Sanxingdui and the records of ancient documents, Sanxingdui should be a brilliant civilization with words.

However, so far, only seven inscriptions have been found in Sanxingdui, and no systematic writing has been found, and the facts found by archaeology contradict logical inferences.

The solution to this contradiction can only be solved by continuing archaeology to uncover the secret.

Fortunately, the archaeological excavation work of Sanxingdui has caused many big sensations around the world.

But in fact, the excavation of this site has only just begun.

In an area of 12 square kilometers, only two sacrificial pits were excavated.

Plus this time, there are only eight sacrificial pits.

The really important burial area and palace area have not yet been found.

Even if there is no mature writing found on the bronzes in these sacrificial pits, it does not mean that the Sanxingdui people did not use words.

It can only show that Sanxingdui people will not engrave words on bronze when they sacrifice.

Although this is just the opposite of the situation of the Central Plains civilization, it is not something that cannot be understood.

Besides, it doesn't have to be that the sacrificial offerings have no words.

Chen Han and the members of the team arrived at the No. 8 sacrificial pit, and immediately launched archaeological excavations on the 16-cubic-meter sacrificial pit.

There are 5,000 numbered cultural relics, so even if some of them may be fragments, there are at least more than 1,000 cultural relics in this pit!

Maybe one of the cultural relics, just like Ligui, recorded the history of the ancient Shu Kingdom?

In case a cultural relic has the words "Silkworm Cong" or "Yuyu" or even "Du Yu" written on it.

That "Er is 48,000 years old, and he is not populated with Qin Saitong." The ancient Shu Kingdom, I'm afraid it will become a real history of faith, not a legend of wild history!

......

"It's so heavy!"

"Can we hug each other?"

"I guess it's hanging, let's give it a try!"

Two pieces of wood were suspended on the wooden planks of the K8 sacrificial pit, and Chen Han and Zhuang Yunpeng were lying on it one by one, one on the left and one on the right, and together they stretched out their hands to a big statue in the pit.

"I don't think it's possible!"

"Give it a try."

"One, two, three!"

"Shake!"

"Ah, don't move!"

Chen Han and Zhuang Yunpeng's faces were as red as pig liver, and they shook the big bronze statue vigorously.

However, the bronze did not move.

Obviously, the two of them were lying on the plank, and there was no way to pick up this great venerable.

"Come again!"

"Three, two, one!"

"Shake!"

This time, they used the strength of the milk to finally shake the bronze.

Lin Ya, who was standing next to the pit, said with a smile: "It's shaken, but it definitely can't be held." ”

Chen Han shook his head and gave up this relatively "easy" extraction method.

The bronze they are extracting is a large mouth statue with a clear Central Plains style.

This is a common bronze type in the Central Plains and the Yangtze River Basin in the Bronze Age, and a large number of Dakouzun have also been unearthed in the No. 1 and No. 2 pits of the Sanxingdui site before.

The appearance of this kind of bronze ware provides conclusive physical evidence for the close connection between Sanxingdui and the Central Plains and the Yangtze River Basin.

Li Bai's "not with Qinsai people" should at least refer to the Sanxingdui civilization, but the later Shu Kingdom.

During the period of the existence of the Sanxingdui civilization, the Sanxingdui people actually had a high degree of communication with the Central Plains people.

Obviously, the wine culture of merchants has greatly influenced the Sanxingdui civilization.

In the Shang Dynasty, this kind of Dakouzun was used to hold the merchants' favorite drink "li", which was not only used for daily drinking, but also used to worship the ancestors.

Merchants have two major characteristics, one is that the religious culture is very heavy, everything must be sacrificed, and sorcerers or priests have a very important position in the Shang civilization.

That's why Oracle is here.

Another major feature is that merchants love to drink, and there are a large number of wine vessels in the tombs of all merchants and nobles.

Although there will also be wine vessels in the tombs of the Zhou people, the number cannot be compared at all.

Obviously, there is extensive communication between Sanxingdui people and businessmen.

And the similarity between the two civilizations is high.

Sanxingdui people are also very worshipful of sacrificial culture, and attach great importance to "wizards and priests".

This point echoes the consistent impression of the Central Plains people on the ethnic groups in the southwest region.

Perhaps it is also because Sanxingdui people attach so much importance to sacrificial culture, so they can have close exchanges with businessmen.

The two civilizations are very similar, so they will cherish each other and have cultural and technological exchanges with each other.

Sanxingdui people also learned a lot of advanced bronze smelting techniques from the merchants, and combined with their own bronze smelting technology, they made these exquisite bronzes.

Moreover, the Sanxingdui people may also have been influenced by the wine culture of merchants.

Therefore, in several sacrificial pits, Dakouzun was found.

Three thousand years ago, these Dakouzun, perhaps also filled with fine wine, were sent into the sacrificial pit to worship their ancestors!

And this sacrificial behavior is most likely not the Sanxingdui civilization's own culture, but learned from the merchants.

It's just that in the Yin Ruins, there is no obvious appearance of bronze and sacrificial culture with the characteristics of Sanxingdui civilization.

It shows that in the exchange between the businessmen and the Sanxingdui civilization, they do not seem to have learned any sacrificial culture from the Sanxingdui people.

At least those exaggerated masks and bronze figures only exist at the Sanxingdui site.

In fact, this is also in line with scholars' speculation about the relationship between Sanxingdui civilization and Shang civilization.

Obviously, for the Sanxingdui civilization, the Shang civilization is a more advanced and mature civilization than them.

There has always been only backward civilizations learning from advanced civilizations, but no advanced civilizations have learned from backward civilizations.

Sanxingdui is obviously the civilization that is slightly more backward than the Shang civilization, so their culture was influenced by the Central Plains culture, and a lot of Central Plains-style bronzes have been unearthed.

The fact that Yinxu did not unearth any bronze ware in the style of the Sanxingdui civilization obviously shows that in the eyes of the merchants, the bronze technology and style of the Sanxingdui civilization do not need to be learned by themselves.

Merchants have their own complete sacrificial culture and will not be influenced by others.

From this, it can be seen.

Although the Sanxingdui civilization is very splendid, it is absolutely a mistake to say that this civilization in Shu is more advanced and advanced than the Shang civilization in the same period.

The big mouth statue from the Shang civilization in front of Chen Han was drunk for more than 3,000 years in the sacrificial pit, and the fragile mouth edge was deeply embedded in the soil.

Although more than 3,000 years have passed, the exquisite relief and decoration of the body are still intact, telling the story of its civilization exchanges that spanned time and region more than 3,000 years ago!
