Why did Li Jiashan win this honor? Let's take a look at some information that the author knows:
1972 In the spring, Lijiashan excavated 27 ancient tombs from the Warring States Period to the Eastern Han Dynasty, and unearthed more than 300 cultural relics1972. The famous case of Niuhutong was unearthed from Tomb 24. Although the excavation was during the Cultural Revolution, it caused a sensation at home and abroad as soon as it was announced. 1989 jiangchuan county people's government announced that lijiashan was the key cultural relics protection unit in jiangchuan county;
From the deep winter of 199 1 to the early summer of the following year, Lijiashan carried out a large-scale excavation, with more than 50 ancient tombs and more than 2,000 cultural relics unearthed. 1In June 1993, the excavation of Lijiashan was recognized by the state as one of the top ten new archaeological discoveries in China in June 1992.
1993, China Cultural Relics Exhibition was held in Shanghai, and National Cultural Heritage Administration appointed Yunnan Province to send Lijiashan cultural relics to participate. On the 11th National Day, 15 pieces (groups) of Lijiashan cultural relics were displayed in a prominent position in the Shanghai Museum, which once again caused a sensation at home and abroad.
1993165438+10. In October, Lijiashan was announced by the Yunnan Provincial People's Government as a provincial key cultural relics protection unit.
According to insiders, there are horses stepping on swallows in the north and cows, tigers and bronze cases in the south. 1999 The case of Niuhutong unearthed in Lijiashan visited the United States, and the insured amount reached100000 USD; Among the five cultural relics designated as national treasures in our province, there are two in Lijiashan.
According to experts, there are about 200 ancient tombs in Lijiashan. Only from the more than 80 buildings excavated, there are a large number of bronzes and high cultural relics value; Its special form of expression and profound cultural connotation; Its exquisite production and exquisite craftsmanship are also rare today. It is no exaggeration to say: Lijiashan buried the splendid civilization of ancient Yunnan! Lijiashan is on the west bank of Xingyun Lake. The author's home is also on the edge of Xingyun Lake, about ten kilometers apart. After Li Jiashan became famous, I have climbed Li Jiashan dozens of times in the past 30 years. I made a lot of observations in the deep mountains and forests. Lijiashan is located about 0/5km north of Jiangchuan County, and it is a branch of Duoyi Mountain beside Xingyun Lake. The mountain is southeast, with an altitude of1778m, and the height difference from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain is about 60m. Climb Lijiashan, the sky ahead is vast, and Xingyun Lake has a panoramic view; The back of the mountain is thick and the mountains are winding and towering.
Lijiashan, some people call it Hushan. Lijiashan is a tiger's head, and Duoyu Mountain is a tiger's body. You see it's like a tiger going down the mountain, hunched over Xingyun Lake, as if ready to roar and rush into the lake at any time; Some people say that Li Jiashan is like a huge mountain top with indomitable spirit, with many mountains as the backrest and Li Jiashan as the right armrest.
From a distance, Li Jiashan is really humble and plain. It's not magnificent. It even looks short and mediocre in the rolling mountains around it. Not beautiful, there are a few sparse trees on the mountain, and they are not ancient and famous trees.
If we regard Lijiashan as a tiger, there are three villages: Zaojie under the tiger's head, Haixi under the tiger's belly and Xishan at the tiger's tail. One kilometer north of Lijiashan is Dragon Street. Longjie is an ancient city. In the Han Dynasty, there were different opinions about where Yuyuan County was, especially with the discovery of the underwater structure of Fuxian Lake, "Where Yuyuan County is" became confusing. 1985, the author wrote that Yuyuan County is governed by Longjie, but after all, it is a family statement, and modesty does not make a conclusion. In the Tang Dynasty, Yuyuan County was changed to Jiangxian County, which was governed by Longjie Street under Lijiashan. This is an indisputable fact, and a conclusion has long been reached. Longjie, formerly known as Lu Yun Town, has eight old scenes, two of which are directly related to Lijiashan:
One day: Qiao's Hot Springs. At the foot of Lijiashan Mountain, the grotesque rocks rise into the sky, the hot springs gush out, and the bottom is crystal clear. Tourists rush to bathe, and they are refreshed after bathing. Its original site has been buried by mud washed down by Lijiashan for many years. Today's hot springs are not the original scenery, and the water temperature is not as good as before.
Nowadays, at the foot of Lijiashan, from west to northeast, there are a series of water springs, including hot springs, warm springs and cold springs, but they are also very interesting. There is a spring in the center of Zaojie Street, which often bubbles and rises like a string of pearls, called Pearl Spring. In the dead of night, intermittent gurgling waves sound like lovers whispering;
There is a spring in Haixi village, which is divided into drinking well, vegetable washing well and laundry well. In drinking wells, there are countless snakeheads, and fish are not afraid of people, so they can be watched by others. Strangely, if someone scatters sunflower seeds, the fish will pile up and eat them, which is nothing. Strangely, after a while, I only saw a fish spit melon seeds out of its mouth. The villagers said that the fish and cat didn't dare to eat and the dog didn't dare to smell it. People get sick after eating, and many examples are given, which can't help but make people believe! People also say that this kind of fish lives without eggs, dies without corpses and never dies. It is called the divine fish and respects the gods.
Li Jiashan's second view said: the morning bell gathers. In the second half of xishan village, old legends often gather here, and Tang Jian gathers in the temple. Deep in the white clouds, the dawn will break, monks will ring bells, and the sound will be heard far and near. Its voice is elegant and carefree, and it has an extraordinary sense of detachment. The original temple has been destroyed and is now being rebuilt. For thousands of years, people at the foot of Lijiashan Mountain have worked at sunrise and rested at sunset, and generations have lived in harmony with this Baoshan.
After Li Jiashan became famous, the author went to the countryside in Longjie to inquire about Li Jiashan's past. The old people told me that they had heard them say that there was an ancient battlefield where Zhuge Liang led troops to fight. Many generals and soldiers died there, leaving many bodies and weapons. This statement handed down from generation to generation has made people feel mysterious about Li Jiashan for thousands of years.
Jiangchuan Lijiashan and Jinning Shizhai Mountain are not far apart, but the linear distance is only twenty or thirty kilometers. Shizhai Mountain in Jinning and Lijiashan in Jiangchuan are ancient tombs of the same period. Shizhai Mountain was excavated early and became famous early, and it became famous all over the world because of the seal of Yunnan King. Between Lijiashan and Shizhai Mountain, there are two mountains a few miles away from Lijiashan, and some bronzes have been unearthed. The cultural connotation of the unearthed objects is quite consistent with that of Lijiashan, and the age is similar. There is a mountain here, named Piao Mountain because it looks like a gourd. When I went to the countryside, the old people told me that there was a folk song "Looking for a gourd hole, gold and silver can't carry it". I wonder if it is also related to underground burial.
In the past, Lijiashan was overgrown with vegetation, tombs, wild animals and inaccessible. Let a person have a strange feeling! People occasionally find some bronzes and jade ornaments on the mountain, but they think they can neither be eaten nor used, and most of them are thrown away as ominous things. It just feels like it confirms what the old people said about the ancient battlefield, which is not the same thing. Time passed in September 1965. In response to the call of the great leader "Agricultural Dazhai", people "marched into barren hills" and dug Dazhai fields on Lijiashan. A batch of bronzes was rediscovered. People pile these "things" on the ground, just like taking out lotus roots in the field and piling them up. When you're finished, you deliberately leave it, break it into pieces like chopping wood, and throw it in a dustpan to take home. I heard that the Longjie supply and marketing cooperative store bought scrap metal, so it was shipped there as scrap metal. Two or three yuan a catty to others, a little money as a supplement to oil and salt.
Fortunately, an employee of Longjie Supply and Marketing Cooperative has a basic understanding of cultural relics. Although he didn't fully understand the exact value of these "rubbish", he thought it might be a cultural relic and immediately told the county cultural center, which also told the provincial museum. But it was the eve of the "Cultural Revolution", and "events cast their shadows before them", and people didn't care about such things. Just like throwing a stone into Xingyun Lake, it will soon be submerged.
The following year, farmers attacked Lijiashan and dug up more bronzes. After seeing it, the comrades in the cultural center reported it to the provincial museum. The provincial museum informed Mr. Zhang Zengqi who happened to be in Jiangchuan to participate in the "socialist education" movement. Teacher Zhang Zengqi is a student of Peking University History Department. After graduation, she worked in Yunnan Museum. Hearing the news, she rushed to the scene at once.
What happened in Lijiashan surprised and opened the eyes of high flyers of Peking University. He saw at a glance that it was an ancient tomb with many priceless cultural relics buried inside. Where the shallow tomb covered by terraces is exposed, the cultural relics are unintentionally destroyed; Hundreds of cultural relics dug up like potatoes are piled up like corn in the public houses of the production team at the foot of the mountain.
Teacher Zhang felt the seriousness of the situation and immediately grabbed several specimens and rushed back to the Kunming Provincial Museum to report. The "great revolution" in the museum is vigorous, posters are everywhere, the establishment is in jeopardy, and no one cares about the excavation of cultural relics. Teacher Zhang just sighed and rushed back to Jiangchuan, calling for protection. Those excavated cultural relics were handed over to the provincial museum at the transfer price of three or four yuan a kilogram.
Six years later, in 1972, all the work in the country took a turn for the better, and the excavation of cultural relics was put on the agenda. 65438+ 10/8, just after New Year's Day, led by Zhang Zengqi, attended by Sun Taichu, Wang Dadao, Xiong Ying and Zhang Yongkang, followed by Qiu Xianchong, Kan Yong, Bai Wenxiang and Xiong Yongzhong. Li Mao, a county cultural center, participated in the joint excavation team from beginning to end and entered the site for formal excavation. The excavation work ended in mid-May of that year and was divided into three sections. During the period, it was stopped twice due to factors such as the Spring Festival, and the actual work lasted for more than two months. Twenty-seven ancient tombs from Warring States to Han Dynasty were excavated, and more than 300 pieces of cultural relics/kloc-0 were unearthed.
During the excavation, thousands of people went to Lijiashan to watch. At that time, the author happened to be in college. At the end of February that year, he passed by Lijiashan in Kunming and the bus stopped. I climbed up Lijiashan with everyone in one breath and saw the teachers of the excavation team carefully cleaning up the exposed cultural relics in a large and deep grave. At that time, the conditions were very difficult, and the teachers of the excavation team lived in the homes of local farmers. Excavated cultural relics are stored in the homes of production team cadres. When the excavation team left, all the cultural relics were boxed and transported to the provincial museum for collection. Ask an old farmer in Zaojie to take care of Li Jiashan instead.
1973, jiangchuan county cultural center contacted the provincial museum at the request of the masses, lent more than 100 pieces of cultural relics, and held an exhibition on the stage of the old theater (later printing house and kindergarten). The author studies history and is interested in cultural relics. At that time, he happened to go home on holiday and came to see it from his hometown. After the exhibition, the cultural relics were put into boxes, placed under the stairs of the cultural center, and then moved to a worker's bed. When people go there to play, they are dragged out of bed to make poker tables. 1978 returned to the provincial museum in full. 1973, Yunnan Provincial Museum held the "Bronze Cultural Relics Exhibition of Yunnan Province", and the emblem of the exhibition was the bronze case of Niuhu unearthed in Lijiashan (it seemed to be called the bronze case of Niuhu at that time). More than half of the cultural relics on display were unearthed in Lijiashan. All the students in the history department of Kunming Normal University (now Yunnan Normal University) went to see the exhibition. The students all know that Li Jiashan is in my hometown, and I envy him. I was proud for a while, too. Later, the bronze case of Niu Hu was regarded as a symbol of Yunnan culture. Its replica was placed in the Yunnan Hall of the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, and its large sculpture stood in front of the Yunnan Provincial Museum.
1975 The second issue of the national core journal of cultural relics, Journal of Archaeology, published the Excavation Report of Lijiashan Ancient Tomb in Jiangchuan, Yunnan Province written by two teachers, Zhang Zengqi and Wang Dadao. Although the pictures and texts are very compact, they still account for more than half of the magazines, which is unprecedented.
After the report was published, Li Jiashan made a blockbuster at home and abroad!
From 65438 to 0984, I was the director of Shi Zhiban in Jiangchuan County, editing Jiangchuan County annals. I don't think it's called Jiangchuan County Records if you don't write Li Jiashan. At that time, I wanted to investigate the excavation of Lijiashan cultural relics and wanted some color photos of unearthed cultural relics to be used in county records. To this end, I made an appointment with the comrades of the county cultural bureau to go to Kunming and negotiate with the provincial museum in two years. 1984, 1985. After many twists and turns, I finally spent 80 yuan's money (at that time, my monthly salary was 47 yuan) to buy three or four photos, black and white, without negatives. We didn't even see the shadow of a photo we asked for, such as the case of Niuhutong. When the provincial museum brought us photos, it also said that because the cultural relics were unearthed in your county, I sold them to you at a preferential price because of business needs. If it's from outside, it won't be sold! At that time, I asked how much it would cost to make a copy of the Niu Hu copper case. He told me that a copy of the plaster was about 10 thousand yuan. It was the sum of my salary for 20 years at that time! This gave me a vivid and unforgettable lesson, and I really began to understand the value of cultural relics! 199 1 In the summer of, Wenquan Village under Lijiashan invited the regional survey team of Yuxi Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources to guide the exploration of silicon ore in Lijiashan. The villagers dug a prospecting trough, and a prospecting trough went straight to Lijia Mountain Peak. After the southern tip of the peak, a medium-sized tomb was exposed, and then the looting of cultural relics occurred. After many inquiries by the county cultural relics management office, some cultural relics scattered among the people were recovered. In the following period of time, Li Jiashan's grave robbery incident was endless. At the foot of the mountain, it is said that "if you want to hold the golden doll, you should dig it on Lijiashan"!
The protection of Lijiashan Tomb has attracted the attention of the county. Experts made a detailed investigation of Lijiashan and found that there are many ancient tombs in Lijiashan. With the approval of National Cultural Heritage Administration, led by teacher Zhang Xinning from Yunnan Institute of Archaeology, led by Wang Guirong, john young and Zhang Cong from Yunnan Institute of Archaeology; Yang Jie, Ma Yongchang, etc. Regional cultural management office; In addition, Liu Xueyi, Fu Ruxiang and Zhao Yunyu were transferred from relevant units and departments in Jiangchuan to form a joint excavation team, and the second excavation of Lijiashan began on1991219.
At that time, the author was the deputy secretary of Jiangchuan County Committee, in charge of propaganda and contact with education, culture and health. At that time, the deputy magistrate in charge of cultural health was studying at the Party School of the Provincial Party Committee, and the Cultural Bureau asked me many questions about cultural work, especially cultural relics. During the excavation, I went to Lijiashan many times, sometimes running at two ends every three days, sometimes checking and solving the difficulties and problems encountered in the excavation, and sometimes accompanying my superiors to visit, which was enjoyable.
At that time, people's understanding of the value of cultural relics was not the same as that during the "Cultural Revolution" when they were just excavated. A large number of precious cultural relics, especially a large number of gold wares, were unearthed this time. The news that "a golden doll was dug up in Lijiashan, Jiangchuan" spread all over the mountains and rivers of Zhongshan, Yunnan, not only in Jiangchuan and Kunming, but also in other places. Many people even came to watch. Li Jiashan is like rushing into the street. People go up and down at any time, and the mountains are often crowded.
It doesn't take long to dig an ancient tomb, but it takes longer and longer to clean it up. It often takes ten days and a half months to clean up a big tomb. This work cannot be urgent, and it can only be done step by step. I went at that time before, today, right, tomorrow, almost, the day after tomorrow, and there is not much change. This long-term open-air operation has brought great problems to the security work. I'm anxious.
In order to ensure the safety of cultural relics and the smooth progress of excavation work, I went to the county public security bureau to discuss and seconded a section chief nicknamed "Yellow Cannon" to lead several capable policemen (or armed police? ) carrying a submachine gun to guard day and night in Lijiashan. It's the middle of winter, it's freezing, and the conditions are hard, so you can imagine. Unfortunately, it was cloudy that day, and the north wind was cold and rainy, which was really unbearable. I went to the local garrison to discuss with the chief officer and borrowed a military tent, so the guard conditions improved a little.
1992 65438+ 10, thousands of excavated cultural relics were boxed and stacked in a room on the second floor of a building without any safety facilities at the foot of the mountain. The Spring Festival is coming, and the excavation team will have a holiday and go home for the Spring Festival. The safety of boxed cultural relics on the mountain and under the mountain, especially under the mountain, is worrying. In order to avoid one thousand, several leaders of the county party Committee and the government reached an emergency agreement. On the evening of June 65438+1October 65438+May 5, I led more than 20 policemen from the county public security and inspection department, armed to the teeth, and rushed to Lijiashan after dinner, locked the boxed cultural relics, stamped them with the seal of the county people's government, loaded them into police cars, and escorted them back to the county town overnight and stored them in the county archives.
In the process of excavation, the author consulted Mr. Zhang Xinning, the leader of the excavation team, many times. I said, according to the original statement, the seal of Yunnan King was unearthed in Shizhai Mountain in Jinning, which means that the tomb of Yunnan King is in Shizhai Mountain, and Li Jiashan and Shizhai Mountain are the same cemetery. Then, Lijiashan is just the graveyard of a nobleman under the king of Yunnan. However, this time there are so many high-standard cultural relics unearthed in Lijiashan. Can it be said that Lijiashan is also the graveyard of the king of Yunnan? Teacher Zhang told me in an unquestionable tone that there are so many bronze drums and high-standard bronzes unearthed in Lijiashan, both in quantity and quality, far exceeding Shizhai Mountain. To be sure, Lijiashan was also the royal cemetery in ancient Yunnan. In the hundreds of years from the Warring States to the Han Dynasty, there should be dozens of Dian kings! Wang Dian's national seal was given by the Central Dynasty of the Western Han Dynasty. This seal was unearthed in Wang Dian's tomb in Shizhai Mountain, but there is not only one Wang Dian. Just like there is more than one tomb of the emperor and more than one tomb of the king of Yunnan, Lijiashan is definitely the royal cemetery of the king of Yunnan. We also talked about some unearthed cultural relics. Teacher Zhang Xinning found a gold scabbard and told me that it was finally seen in Shizhai Mountain in Jinning and was destroyed. It was sent to the Palace Museum to ask the teacher to repair it. It was used for two or three years, and it was repaired and brought back in a box. There are so many unearthed in Lijiashan this time, and they are well preserved. Two thousand years later, they are still glittering! Elasticity and toughness are very good, it's really hard to get! ?
The study of unearthed cultural relics proves that the era of Lijiashandian royal cemetery lasted from the end of the Warring States to the early Eastern Han Dynasty, which is consistent with Shizhai Mountain. It should be pointed out that from the cultural relics unearthed from the "two mountains", Lijiashan entered the prosperous period of bronze culture from the late Warring States period, and a large number of funerary objects and high-quality tombs emerged one after another; However, in Shizhai Mountain at the same time, several small tombs, mostly pottery, were still common. By the Western Han Dynasty, the "two mountains" were neck and neck, both in the heyday of bronze culture. In the middle of the Western Han Dynasty, Shizhai Mountain showed signs of surpassing Lijiashan, but by the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Shizhai Mountain had obviously declined. There were still many large tombs in Lijiashan during this period, and the unearthed bronzes also retained the original style of Yunnan. Experts infer that Lijiashan prospered first, then declined, and never stopped in the middle. This fully shows that the rulers of Yunnan first made a fortune in Lijiashan, and later moved the center of Yunnan to Shizhai Mountain for some reason. When the central dynasty of the Western Han Dynasty destroyed Yunnan, the remnant of the king of Yunnan retreated to Lijiashan, until the Central Plains dynasty implemented the county system, which eventually replaced the power of the king of Yunnan. It can be said with certainty that Lijiashan has always been the center of Yunnan. 1March, 992, the excavation of Lijiashan came to an end; In April, National Cultural Heritage Administration organized relevant experts to check and accept the excavation work of Lijiashan. In July, the cultural relics unearthed from Lijiashan in the county archives were moved to the office building of the county people's armed forces department for sorting.
What is a headache is that since the excavation team withdrew from the mountain, grave robbers have never stopped robbing the mountain.
I once chatted with teacher Zhang Zengqi, and he told me such a thing. One of his classmates in America wrote to him and said:
An American cultural relic store is selling Lijiashan cultural relics. I don't know if it's true or not. If it is true, he wants to buy it. And sent a photo of the object with the letter, please ask teacher Zhang Zengqi to identify it. Teacher Zhang, who has a good knowledge of Lijiashan cultural relics, knows at a glance that the real thing is a "real guy". But it is not easy to reply. If it is true, how bad our cultural relics management work is; If it is false, I feel sorry for my conscience and my old classmates, so I have to keep silent awkwardly.
On March 3rd1993 and 3rd1,Yunnan Economic News reported: "A dry shed belonging to a national first-class cultural relic was unearthed in Lijiashan, where people and animals lived, and several people stood or sat in it, with vivid shape and elegant appearance. The messenger went out to 200 yuan to buy it, but when it appeared in the auction market in Hong Kong, it was priced at HK$ 6 million. However, a businessman is a businessman after all. After all, they are for profit, and the money will not be less. "
One day is Sunday, Xiaojie Luo, the director of the county public security bureau, came to see me. He told me a little thing to report to me. The thing is this: the illegal trading of Lijiashan cultural relics has been repeatedly banned and even intensified. There are often illegal transactions of reselling cultural relics near Lijiashan. According to the clues, the Public Security Bureau placed reliable people into it and mastered the cultural relics trading in Jiangcheng that night. The Public Security Bureau arrived at the scheduled place in advance to ambush, but the person who bought the cultural relics was very cunning and temporarily changed to trading places. The terrain of the new location is very complicated. When rounding up the suspect, the police were forced to shoot because of the resistance of the other side. The bullet entered from a suspect's back and went out from his chest. It has been sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. I don't know what will happen. The principal offender is a foreigner on the run. Shooter is a new comrade with ideological baggage. I asked if I hurt my own people, and Director Luo said that it was planted because it was dark.
The comrade who went in was accidentally punched and slightly injured. It doesn't matter. I said, as long as it doesn't hurt our own people. Black-market trading of cultural relics is a criminal act, and resisting being injured by the police when reselling cultural relics is self-mutilation.
At one time, the black market trade of Jiangchuan cultural relics was rampant. Because of selling cultural relics, there were casualties, and a criminal suspect who bought cultural relics was killed on the ridge of Houjiagou River.
1993 65438+ 10/7 The front page of China cultural relics reported that the second excavation of Lijiashan in Jiangchuan was listed in 1992 as one of the top ten new archaeological discoveries in China. At the beginning of the same year, the state decided to hold the third exhibition of China cultural relics in Shanghai for the first time (both the first and second exhibitions were held in the Forbidden City). National Cultural Heritage Administration and Shanghai Museums have drawn up a list of cultural relics exhibitions. "There are nearly 200 pieces (groups) of cultural relics on display in China", and 5 pieces (groups) of Lijiashan cultural relics/kloc-0 have been designated for exhibition in Yunnan (including 6 chimes in one group), accounting for almost all of them.
As the leader of Lijiashan Cultural Relics Exhibition Team, the author took five people to escort these priceless cultural relics to Shanghai by train. Mr. Zhang Deqin, a National Cultural Heritage Administration, pointed out in the preface of the book 1993 China Cultural Relics, which was published specially for this exhibition: "The gold-plated bronze drums and shell containers of textile scenes in the Western Han Dynasty are the best products unearthed from the tombs of Dian nobles in Lijiashan, Jiangchuan, Yunnan. The small gold-plated bronze drum is small and exquisite, with gold-plated overall surface and unique decoration technology. This is an unprecedented masterpiece. The shell container used in the textile scene, with standing tigers on both sides, a female noblewoman sitting in the middle, covered in gold, two female slaves holding boxes and umbrellas, and many people engaged in textile outside, is vivid and lifelike. It is a reproduction of the life and production activities of the people in Yunnan. "
1From April to May, 1994, with the consent of National Cultural Heritage Administration and the approval of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television, the Yunnan Provincial Department of Culture and the Japanese national NHK TV station agreed that during the excavation of the 85-87 tomb of Lijiashan, NHK TV station would take photos on the spot. I did some coordination work for it in the early stage. After the excavation began, I transferred the work of the regional Federation of Literary and Art Circles and took the comrades of the Federation to Lijiashan. It was also during this period that CCTV's prime-time "Chinese Style" column went to Jiangchuan to photograph the unearthed cultural relics in Lijiashan, and the relevant leaders of cities and counties asked me to accompany them. I went to Jiangchuan with the comrades of CCTV column group for a period of time and completed the task. Later, the cultural relics unearthed in Lijiashan were exhibited in "Chinese style", which caused great repercussions throughout the country. ?
1April 1992, the excavation work of Lijiashan basically came to an end. In order to leave Lijiashan cultural relics in Jiangchuan for convenient use, I strongly advocate the need to build a Lijiashan Bronze Museum. At the relevant meetings of the county party Committee and the county government, I proposed many times, saying, "Even if Jiangchuan people take off their pants to sell, they should build a Lijiashan museum!"
In order to establish a project and strive for funds, I and the relevant comrades in the county shuttled between various provinces to find relevant leaders and departments and strive for support and funds. Once I went to the district to find a leader, I chased all the way to the district sports commission. I found Wang Zhengpei, then deputy secretary of the prefectural party committee, and Pu Chaohe, then deputy commissioner. The two leaders heard my words "even if the pants are sold, we should build a museum" and affirmed our determination. The construction of Lijiashan Bronze Museum was later strongly supported by provincial and local funds, especially regional funds. Lijiashan Museum broke ground at the end of 1993, and was completed and opened in autumn of 1994. More than 200 cultural relics unearthed in Lijiashan were exhibited, making it the first bronze museum in China. Among the county-level museums in China, it is the museum with the richest collection of cultural relics and the highest value of cultural relics; Becoming a patriotic education base in Yunnan Province is one of the places that people must go to Jiangchuan.
Since the first excavation by 1972, especially since the second excavation by 1992, with the continuous improvement of the quantity and quality of unearthed cultural relics, Lijiashan has become more and more famous and difficult to care for. I don't know how many pairs of eyes stare at Lijiashan every day, and how many people are drooling over Lijiashan cultural relics. Provinces (cities) and counties have given some attention and input to this. I have been paying attention to Li Jiashan since 1994 worked in the regional Federation of Literary and Art Circles. As a member of the Standing Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, I made an appeal at the relevant meeting, demanding that Li Jiashan be kept under strict supervision to prevent criminals from stealing Li Jiashan's cultural relics. I put forward suggestions on strengthening the preservation of Lijiashan at the CPPCC meeting, participated in the investigation and inspection on the protection and development of Lijiashan and its unearthed cultural relics organized by CPPCC, and made a speech on the development and utilization of Lijiashan at the plenary session of CPPCC.
Due to the attention of leaders at all levels, the guard squadron of Lijiashan ancient tombs was established, with guard rooms at the top of the mountain and in the south of Shanxi. Equipped with strong guards, enough guns, police dogs, communication tools, etc. And established a joint defense system on the mountain.
In recent years, the protection, development and utilization of Lijiashan have entered a new stage. The general idea is to acquire land, build walls, build houses and build a famous cultural tourist spot. Now, in the north of Lijiashan, a spectacular stone step about kilometers long from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain has been built. To visit Lijiashan, people can take a bus to the foot of the mountain and climb the stone steps to the top.
Li Jiashan showed people:
Lijiashan has a glorious past!
Li Jiashan has a bright future!
