Archaeology Grandmaster at Max Level

Archaeological work does not mean digging when you see a tomb. In fact, most ancient tombs are now protected by the official cultural protection department. Especially those ancient tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties that still have above-ground buildings are well protected by the authorities. Some people whose families live in the countryside should know that the government is responsible for maintaining the tombs of generals or ministers wherever they are in the countryside. "Archaeologists" currently only conduct rescue excavations on ancient tombs. Only tombs that were accidentally dug out and damaged during construction site construction, and tombs that were destructively stolen by tomb thieves, will be included in the targets of rescue excavation. Archaeological teams from various places are really busy and don't have time to search for human ancestors' tombs everywhere. In other words, even if someone's ancestral grave was dug up, it was not done by archaeologists. It was dug up by tomb robbers, and then the authorities discovered it, and sent an archaeological team to rescue the excavation, save useful cultural relics, and relocate the tomb!

I learned about the existence of "ancient history analysis" when I was watching popular science at Station B. Then I learned why they did not recognize the existence of the Xia Dynasty, and the logic was particularly funny. Although you have excavated a site (Erlitou) where the Xia Dynasty was recorded in history, and the time of this site is consistent with the Xia Dynasty, and they are both wide-area kingship countries, even if this site has unearthed ritual utensils from the same period as the Xia Dynasty (Youli The utensils represent the existence of institutions, culture and ritual and music civilization) And its geographical location is in the same place as the capital of the Xia Dynasty recorded in relevant documents. However, as long as no relevant text is unearthed to prove that this site is the capital of the Xia Dynasty, then the Xia Dynasty may not exist. To put it simply, an animal looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and eats like a duck, but as long as it doesn't say it is a duck, then it may not be a duck. This is the reason why the Ancient History School did not recognize the existence of the Xia Dynasty after the Erlitou site was excavated.

But don't torture me with myths, legends and religious legends, okay... It's not that myths and legends are bad, I personally also like to read myths and legends, and also like to read prehistoric novels. But don't take myths as reality... We really can't find Nuwa's patching up of the sky, Nuwa's creation of humans, the various strange animals in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the legendary tribes that can live for hundreds of years, and the Kunlun Mountains tens of thousands of miles from north to south in archaeological discoveries! I dare not say whether the myth is really false, but at least wait until the evidence is found to prove it... Before the myth is confirmed, let's talk about science first.

Currently, according to a certain mechanism, new books are only recommended by paying users (with recharge records within three months). In order to make the new book last longer, please follow the update every day, stay on the latest chapter for more than one minute, and turn the page after reaching the last page. Of course it would be better to support it with votes and Zhangshuo messages! But it is really important, very important, very important to pursue reading! Please don't keep the book and update it immediately. And everyone knows that archeology is such a small niche that it really cannot be cultivated. If it is cultivated, it will definitely be ruined. So everyone, let's read a book!

Is there any difference between archeology and tomb robbing except that one is official?

The difference between archeology and tomb robbing

To be honest, I was very angry when I read it. Why do other countries need to question our country's history and care about what they do? But then I thought about it, no one knows whether those foreigners' questioning and ridicule would care about our past history. It is a big country with a rich heritage. If there is no influence from foreign things, not many people will care about history, because it can be said that the existing history is enough for us to be proud of. If there are no external factors, a lot of history may be buried forever. This is also another kind of stone from other mountains, which can attack jade.

Why do I feel that Zhao Zheng is still inappropriate? The emperor has no surname. In the case of Qin Shihuang, it is possible to change the crown and create a mysterious emperor. Although the Qin State was established by the Zhou Emperor who enshrined Ying and established a large clan, it is okay to call him Ying Zheng. Even if the country is called Qin Zheng, it is only called Zhao Zheng. Why does it feel a bit insulting in it?

It would be nice if you could put some pictures after the article. I feel that the popular science lacks a bit of atmosphere without pictures.

Write well ✍🏻 I'm waiting to supplement my useful knowledge and have fun while charging...
