The book is divided into four chapters: Archaeological Notes, which return to the archaeological excavation site and restore the first-line sites and tomb excavation scenes; Field Notes, which describe the experiences and thoughts during field trips, conveying the charm and interest of archaeological work; Historical Notes, which explore the mysteries of monuments and artifacts, presenting a complete historical picture; Life Notes, which use light pen to write deep feelings, recall those unforgettable people and things, and express the cherishment of the warmth and goodwill of the world. These simple, sincere and enthusiastic words embody the author's thinking about life and enthusiasm for archaeological work, trying to establish a connection between archaeologists and the public in terms of knowledge, interest, emotion and thought.

The general background of this book is the "going out" of Chinese archaeology - in the past ten years or so, some Chinese universities and cultural relics and archaeological institutions have successively gone abroad, starting from neighboring countries, and gradually moved to distant Egypt and Central America, and carried out archaeological work in various countries around the world, gradually becoming a prairie fire. Why discover other ancient civilizations? How to conduct archaeological research on ancient nomadic culture? What archaeological imprints did the Huns leave behind when they swept across Eurasia? How did Angkor Wat rise from the ruins? Did Zheng He's fleet really leave "blood" in Africa? How was the global civilization map formed? Ten front-line archaeological leaders who "go global" return to ancient civilizations around the world from a Chinese perspective, and personally describe what they saw and thought during the excavations, as well as the civilizational connotations behind the archaeological remains. These ten unique overseas archaeological cases are a concentrated representation of our exploration of world civilization, and are also a vivid portrayal of Chinese archaeology going abroad. The book is supplemented by more than 500 frames of pictures, and provides concise and clear space-time coordinate axes, the history of discovery\u002F excavation, extended reading, museum exhibits and other special information. Readers can have a bird's-eye view and overview of ancient civilizations around the world.

[Recommended by Xu Hong, Ma Boyong, and Yu Genzhe! Enter the excavation site with the "archaeological detective"] The Terracotta Warriors and Horses are a symbol of the strength and magnanimity of the Qin Empire. Behind the Terracotta Warriors and Horses are proof that countless living individuals have lived in the era. They are like cells of the Qin Empire and have become the most vivid annotations of the Qin Empire. Xu Weihong, the leader of the third excavation of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Pit No. 1 And the excavation of the Qin Xianyang City ruins, has been unremittingly "searching for relatives" and studying Qin history for 30 years. In this book, she presents us with many subtle discoveries at the terracotta warriors and horses archaeological excavation site. Together, they reproduce a vivid picture of Qin Dynasty society: along the branching lineage of the Qin Terracotta Warriors family, what kind of innovation and inheritance, reality and expectations can be seen of the Qin people? The "Wule Gongming" system is improving day by day, and the terracotta warriors and horses repaired with "bone paste" represent the pragmatism of the Qin people or the compromise of the regulatory authorities? How did the developed local lacquerware technology in the Qin Dynasty support craftsmen to create such vividly colored terracotta warriors and horses? What three types of people built the Qin Mausoleum, and how did they provide logistical support? ... And following the author's exploration of the living past of Qin and Korea, we can also see the reality of the Qin Dynasty behind more cultural relics and sites: How does the "Jue Juezi" in Qiangnu reflect the Qin Dynasty's military pursuit and surpassing of the nomads? Is Qin Shihuang's "conquering the world's troops" true or false? Is the implementation of the policy flexible? "Bao Qin" has a strict mourning process for soldiers who died in battle. Can it help us solve a little bit of our doubts about "why Qin unified the world?" What contribution did the development and growth of Liyi make to the Qin Empire's stabilization of its national rule...

This book conducts a typological analysis of the pottery unearthed from the Western Zhou tombs in Fenghao area, divides the Western Zhou tombs in Fenghao area into six periods, and summarizes the main characteristics of each period of pottery. It also analyzes the cultural factors of the pottery unearthed from the Western Zhou tombs in the area, and examines the shape and structure of the tombs, burial styles, various funerary objects, sacrificial remains, etc. Based on the diachronic changes in characteristics, it was concluded that there were two periods of change in the main characteristics of the Western Zhou tombs in Fenghao area; the tombs were classified into hierarchies, and the differences in social status between the Zhou people and the Yin survivors were examined from a hierarchical perspective, and it was pointed out that the Zhou people and the Yin survivors each used their own ways to demonstrate their status in burial customs.

As a kind of man-made space, tombs are not only a display space for the evolution of skills such as architectural construction and artifact production, but also a stage for the competition of ideas and concepts such as family ethics and funeral customs. It is also the result of social politics, economic development, technological evolution, and changes in ideas and concepts. This book takes the tombs of the Southern Song Dynasty and related issues as the research object, takes the Southern Song Dynasty as the center, starts from the field, and uses the tombs as the fulcrum, seeking the possibility of comprehensive integration of field and documents, archeology and history. In the long historical development context, it explores and reveals the inheritance and changes of the tomb system, social etiquette, and ideological concepts, and gives the archeology of the tombs of the Southern Song Dynasty a relatively systematic academic value.

Under the background of digital survival of cultural relics, museums have successively carried out high-definition digital collection of cultural relics in their collections, resulting in a large number of cultural relic image materials full of traces of time. This digital cultural relic information is an important material for studying culture and verifying history. In the process of irreversible decline of cultural relics, the use of digital information processing methods to record and reconstruct cultural relic information is a development trend in the scientific and technological protection of cultural relics. Especially for two-dimensional cultural relics such as murals, if the cultural and historical information passed down by their pictures disappears, the value of the cultural relic itself will no longer exist. They are the type of cultural relics that museums most urgently need to restore. The restoration of murals in museum collections involves a tedious process and the restoration cycle is very long. Due to the unpredictable effects of restoration and the shortage of restoration personnel, most of the murals are stored in the storage department and have not yet entered the exhibition hall. The research object of this article is the digital information of the tomb murals collected in high definition. The research goal is to extract the digital files of the murals non-contactly and non-destructively through the analysis of the existing information, and simulate the process of manual restoration of the murals, so as to establish a complete digital restoration system that meets the museum management process. The digital restoration of the tomb murals in the collection is based on the Bayesian inverse principle and includes three parts: extracting prior knowledge of the remaining information on the murals, establishing a data model for the mural disease information, and establishing a repair model for the damaged mural information. During the research process, the paper fully considered the strong pathological nature of solving such inverse problems and the principles of Gestalt visual psychology, established subjective and objective evaluation methods, and designed an interactive digital restoration management platform to share remote expert experience and dynamically adjust restoration plans.

"Return: The Three Kingdoms Scene" uses history, cultural relics, and relics as clues. Through sorting out the cultural relics from the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period collected in major cultural and museum institutions and investigating the cultural relics of the Three Kingdoms across the country, "Return: The Three Kingdoms Scene" uses the "dual evidence method" of "materials in the underground" and "materials on paper" to present readers with a more realistic, three-dimensional and interesting era of the Three Kingdoms. History's personal experience is greater than any narration. The book covers ancient city sites, ancient tombs, ancient battlefields, temples, murals, calligraphy, inscriptions, porcelain, lacquerware, coins, weapons, architecture, clothing, food, social life, religion, Sino-foreign exchanges and many other fields related to the Three Kingdoms. It contains more than 400 national treasure-level cultural relics and on-site photos and hand-drawn maps of the Three Kingdoms relics. The perspective is novel and the pictures and texts provide a panoramic view of the "Visible Three Kingdoms".

In the book "Tutankhamun's Horn", British Egypt archaeologist Toby Wilkinson uses a unique perspective and entry point to look at the tomb and unearthed objects. He did not focus on the familiar process of discovering the tomb, nor did he dwell too much on the short life of the young pharaoh and the political disintegration of Egypt during his reign. Instead, he introduced the dazzling ancient Egyptian culture and its far-reaching influence in detail through the pharaoh's funerary objects. From more than 5,000 funerary objects, he selected 100 artifacts and divided them into 10 groups. According to 10 themes, he comprehensively introduced all aspects of social life such as the natural environment, religious beliefs, royal politics, trade networks, science and technology, and daily life of ancient Egyptian civilization. A gold-decorated chariot shows the advanced technology of Egypt at that time. Bread, fruit baskets and wine jars reflect the fertility of the Nile Valley and the abundance of feasts enjoyed by the local people. Jewelry made from Nubian ebony and Libyan desert glass also illustrate Egypt's active trade and vast diplomatic network. Shaving utensils and chessboards reveal another aspect of people's daily life... Nowadays, the music of Tutankhamun's era, represented by the most touching object in the tomb - Tutankhamen's horn (silver horn), has been wiped out like the man himself, leaving only the echoes of the past, relics of the distant past. Fortunately, through these funerary objects, we can still awaken the world of Tutankhamun and the ancient Egyptian civilization that he represented as a symbol.
