Chapter 348: Yu Dynasty?!

And in addition to the conjecture that Dayu came from Liangzhu.

In fact, Wei Lai still had a guess in his heart.

That is, the ancient country of Liangzhu may also be the legendary "Yu Dynasty".

This is the result of his corroboration based on the existing archaeological discoveries and the records in the history books.

But it's just his personal guess.

The source of the speculation is this:

"Spring and Autumn Zuo Chuan Justice" said: "China has great etiquette, so it is called summer; There is the beauty of uniforms, which is called Hua".

The "great etiquette" of China also originates from the Liangzhu culture.

In addition to the six Chinese utensils, which are important symbols of the Chinese ritual system, the mounds and shrines where the emperors of the previous dynasties sacrificed to the heavens were the most important ritual systems of the ancient Chinese people, all of which originated from the Liangzhu culture.

Regarding the mound, it is a circular altar for worshipping the heavens. "Zhou Li, Chunguan, Da Si Le" contains: "On the winter solstice, it is played on the mounds on the earth. Tell us that on the winter solstice, the king of Zhou will sacrifice to the sky in the mound.

In the consciousness of the ancients, the sky is round, that is, the sky is round, so the mound is round. The fire festival is a ceremony of burning wood to the heavens, and it is held on the mound. Therefore, the mound has two characteristics: one is round, and the other is a fire offering.

Liangzhu Ancient City, Wujin Temple Pier, Haining Lotus Leaf, Daze Temple, Shanghai Guangfulin, Jinshan Tomb, Fuquan Mountain and other Liangzhu sites have found the remains of the mound for burning sacrifices.

You may not know what the mound is, the mound altar in the south of the BJ Temple of Heaven is the central building of the Temple of Heaven, the Temple of Heaven is the mound, the Ming Jiajing year was built, and it was the place of the emperor's winter solstice sacrifice ceremony.

The altar of the Temple of Heaven is a three-layer open-air round platform of withering, the altar surface is artemisia leaf bluestone, the white marble railing, the railing is withered, and the two outer square and inner round walls symbolize the "heaven and round place".

The stone components of the altar surface, steps, and railings of the mound are all taken from nine or multiples of nine, that is, the number of yang, to symbolize the heavens.

The round stone slab in the center of the altar is called Tianxin Stone.

The source of such an important emperor's ritual system and shape is the mound created by the Liangzhu culture.

Regarding "She", also known as Sheritual, also known as Sheji, "She" is the altar of the god of the land "She", and "Ji" is the god of agriculture, referring to agriculture; In ancient times, agriculture was the foundation of the world, and "Sheji" was also called to refer to the country, and it was the ritual inherited by all Chinese dynasties.

"Pipe: Light and Heavy E": "The King of Danger...... Seal the soil for the society, put the wood for the Lu, and the people know the rites. "Huainanzi Qi Folk Training": "There is the worship of the Yu family, and its community uses soil." ”

Pre-Qin documents clearly state that the community sacrifice originated in the Yu Dynasty and was inherited by the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties.

Field archaeological evidence that the community sacrifice originated from the Liangzhu culture at the earliest, and is found in hundreds of Liangzhu sites throughout Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai and Anhui, and has formed the basic form of later generations, the above-mentioned classics record that the community sacrifice originated in the Yu Dynasty, and the archaeological evidence finds that the earliest community sacrifice relics are all over the Liangzhu culture and not found in other earlier cultures, so it can be seen that the ancient kingdom of Liangzhu is likely to be the Yu Dynasty before Xia.

This is the double evidence method of archaeology.

Regarding the Yu Dynasty chronicle, "Han Feizi Xianxue" clouds: "Yin and Zhou are more than 700 years old, Yu and Xia are more than 2,000 years old", "Today is to judge Yao and Shun before 3,000 years old".

Han Feizi was born about 280 BC and died in 233 BC.

According to his "Now is the way of Yao and Shun before 3,000 years old", 3,000 years ago is exactly around 3300 B.C., so it can be inferred that the Yu Dynasty was established before about 3300 B.C., which is very coincidentally exactly consistent with the Liangzhu culture isotope test results of about 5,300 years ago.

It is completely consistent with the conclusion that the ancient kingdom of Liangzhu was the Yu Dynasty based on the double evidence method of the "Society Sacrifice" classic records and archaeological evidence.

Regarding the Yu Dynasty Diwang, all the dynastic names in later generations were named after fiefdoms.

For example, Xia originated from Great Xia, Shang came from Shangqiu, and Yu Dynasty was named because of its place Wangyu (Wu) land.

The oracle bone inscription of Yinxu has seen "Wu", that is, "Yu", which means that the name of Wu land is earlier than the Wu State of Wu where Taibo Ben Wu of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

And the solution of "Shuowen Jie Zi", the word "Yu" is born from the word "Wu".

"Yu" and "Wu" are connected, the ancient sound is the same in the fish department, "Yu" and "Wu" are fake since ancient times, all ancient scholars have no doubt, and they are also common in all ancient classics.

Therefore, the Yu Dynasty was named after the land, and there is no doubt about the land of Wuyue in southern Jiangsu, Shanghai, and northern Zhejiang.

It is completely consistent with the conclusion that the ancient kingdom of Liangzhu was the Yu Dynasty based on the double evidence method of the "Society Sacrifice" classic records and archaeological evidence.

From the capital, even if you take a bullet train, it doesn't take long to arrive in Hangzhou.

Yuhang, where the Liangzhu site is located, is a district of Hangzhou.

The Liangzhu site is very large and spans three modern town-level administrative units.

However, the core essence area of the Liangzhu site is all in the bottle kiln town, and the core is located in the ancient city of Liangzhu, "Anti Mountain, Mojiao Mountain, Huiguan Mountain, 11 dams" are all in the bottle kiln territory.

The ruins of the ancient city of Liangzhu are located in Fengdu Road, Bottle Kiln Town, Yuhang District, Hz City, ZJ Province, and are located in the border area between the mountainous hills of western Zhejiang and the Hangjiahu Plain.

The terrain here is high in the west and low in the east, the south and north are the branches of the Tianmu Mountain Range, the Dongtiaoxi and Liangzhu Harbor flow eastward from the north and south sides of the city respectively, and the two natural hills of Fengshan and Pheasant Mountain are used to the southwest and northeast corners of the city wall respectively.

The ancient city site of Liangzhu covers a total area of 3 square kilometers, and the age of Liangzhu culture is 5300-4300 years ago, and it continues to develop for about 1000 years, which belongs to the archaeological culture of the late Neolithic Age.

Distributed in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, a total of 136 ruins have been discovered, and more than 300 high-grade cemeteries, altars, jade ritual systems, and large palace foundations have been found here.

The ruins of the ancient city of Liangzhu, known as the "first city in China", the water conservancy system around the ancient city of Liangzhu is the earliest large-scale water conservancy project in China known so far, and it is also the earliest dam in the world, the ancient city of Liangzhu is a regional center of power and belief in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River around Taihu Lake in China.

"The pottery unearthed in Liangzhu is the most distinctive with the muddy gray tire polished black leather pottery, the wheel system is adopted, the shape of the vessel is regular, the circle foot vessel is the majority, and it is decorated with perforation, slub pattern, string pattern, and also has color painting."

"A lot of jade artifacts have been found, including bi, cong, huang, ring, beads, etc., most of which have been unearthed in tombs."

"The sites of the same type as the Liangzhu site, in southern Jiangsu in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, until the area south of the Qiantang River, are widely distributed, and the archaeological community is collectively called "Liangzhu culture". ”

On the way to Hangzhou, Kong Jianwen continued to introduce Liangzhu culture.

Liangzhu culture is a culture with a large scope.

The ancient city of Liangzhu found here in Yuhang is just a capital city, similar to the kind of city-state in ancient Greece.

But this does not mean that there is only such a city for the people of Liangzhu.

In fact, from the southern Jiangsu region in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River to the Qiantang River area, there are sites of the same type of Liangzhu culture found.

In other words, the rule of the Liangzhu people at that time should have included Zhejiang and Jiangsu.

Yuhang's side is the capital area.

This is also why, most historians believe that Liangzhu is already a feudal state that has entered the era of centralization, rather than a tribe.

At the end of 1982, archaeologists unearthed a large number of stone tools, jade, pottery and other relics at the Pukou Yingpanshan site located on the north bank of the Yangtze River. Among them, the earliest dragon-shaped jade ornaments were unearthed. One of these two dragons is a "head-up dragon" with a neck raised upwards, and the other is a "bow-down dragon" with a dragon's head bent downward. ”

"In 1986 and 1987, a large number of burial goods were unearthed from the Liangzhu tomb, of which jade accounted for more than 90%, and the jade that symbolized wealth and the jade cong that symbolized divine power and the jade that symbolized military power provided valuable information for the study of the origin of the class."

"Moreover, many major museums in the world have re-identified and named the old jade, so that some of the original jade that was mistaken for Han jade, but in fact the history of Liangzhu jade has been pushed forward by more than 2,000 years."

Moreover, the fragments of silk fabrics unearthed in Liangzhu culture are first picked up and then woven, which is the earliest silk weaving object found in China so far, and this piece of silk from 4700 to 5200 years ago can be called "the world's first piece of silk". ”

Mr. Wang Suijin and others argued that the "source of silk" originated in the Yangtze River Delta, and the ancient Yellow River and the northwest were transmitted from the silk culture in the south of the Yangtze River such as Hemudu and Liangzhu. ”

"In 1994, a super-giant building foundation site was discovered, with an area of more than 300,000 square meters, which was confirmed to be a large earth platform that was artificially piled up, and the thickest part of the soil layer reached 10.2 meters.

"The archaeological community believes that the Liangzhu culture is a source of Chinese civilization."

Kong Jianwen's narration is a commonplace topic.

There is nothing special about it.

However, Professor Li then said with deep meaning: "Now, there is a saying in the academic community that the ancient country of Liangzhu may be the country of the legendary Chengjiu clan. ”

.....

Liangzhu is Yu Chao's speculation, and the argument comes from Zhihu: Astana Symphony user, hereby named.
