Yongcheng mangdangshan English composition

The discovery of the Han Tomb in Mangdang Mountain in Yongcheng is a major event in the national archaeological community. At that time, the tomb of Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang was in Xi 'an. Liang Xiaowang is a famous and powerful king among princes, ranking second only to the emperor. In the Han Dynasty, except Liu Bang, all his descendants had high status. Mawangdui Han Tomb excavated in Changsha, Hunan Province and Han Liusheng Tomb excavated in Mancheng, Hebei Province are just one or two separate Han tombs. The Han Tomb in Mangdang Mountain in Yongcheng is a Han group. Most of the cultural relics in the tomb have been stolen many times, but the overall size of the tomb has been preserved. It is rare for the Han Formation with a permanently preserved stone structure like this in China. Even if there is only a big frame left, it is still a very important cultural relic, very precious and spectacular. Liu Qingzhu, deputy director and researcher of the Institute of Archaeology, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, made a horizontal comparison between the Han tombs in Xi 'an, Xuzhou and Mangdang Mountain, Yongcheng. He has been exploring and studying China culture near Xi 'an for many years, and of course he can accurately grasp China culture from macro to micro. Liu Qingzhu said that since the 20th century, there has been an upsurge of studying China culture in China and neighboring countries and regions. Han cultural circle is a cultural radiation area with Chinese characters as the main symbol. This scope involves Southeast Asia, Japan, Vietnam and other countries and regions. The maturity of China culture laid a solid foundation in the Western Han Dynasty. As far as the cultural sites of the Western Han Dynasty are concerned, Xi 'an represents Kyoto culture. The tomb of King Chu of Xuzhou is the representative of Chu culture. The King of Chu participated in the "Seven Kingdoms Rebellion", and his position was far from that of Liang Xiaowang. Therefore, the Han-Liang culture embodied in the Wang Ling Group of the State of Liang excavated in recent years is consistent with that of the Central Committee of the Western Han Dynasty. It can be regarded as the epitome and outstanding representative of the real Western Han culture. If we understand the Mangdang Mountain Han culture in Anhe and Yongcheng County, Xi 'an, we can get a general understanding of the origin and basic characteristics of the Western Han culture. Mr. Zheng Guang, who is in his fifties, is a researcher at the Institute of Archaeology, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and the backbone of the Shang Dynasty experts in China. Since 1970s, Mr. Zheng Guang came to Shangqiu with Wang Zichao, a scholar of ancient philology and archaeology, and investigated ancient cultural sites such as Wangyoufang in Yongcheng County and Wuqiang in Shangqiu County. Later, he came to Shangqiu many times, hoping to find evidence of Shang and Zhou culture from Shangqiu, the intersection of eastern and western ancient cultures in China. This time, Mr Zheng Guang was invited to attend the seminar. Of course, he left a deep impression-the glory and richness of Han and Liang culture is due to its huge background in human history. The ancients said, "Businessmen and senators should not be together." The ground landscape of Shangqiu corresponds to the business accommodation in the sky. Chen Botai in Shangqiu has a long history, which is recorded in ancient books. The ancient Yuguo people near Shangqiu are descendants of Shun. The origin of Shang Dynasty was in Shangqiu. Recently, the Sino-American joint archaeological team of Shang and Zhou cultures excavated ancient cultural sites in Shangqiu. Shangqiu is becoming a hot spot for archaeologists at home and abroad. Of course, due to the repeated flooding of the Yellow River, the land siltation layer is very thick, and it is indeed very difficult to carry out archaeological excavations in eastern Henan, but it is by no means like some people say that there is no ancient examination in eastern Henan. There are sites of Longshan culture, Dawenkou culture and Yueshi culture here, and some cultural layers may belong to the pre-Shang period, which of course needs further excavation and confirmation. The cultural thoughts and patterns reflected in the tombs of Liang Xiaowang and Empress are not only the historical testimony of a powerful kingdom, but also the epitome of culture, philosophy and political consciousness in Han Dynasty. It is true that the Han Tomb in Mangdang Mountain is a treasure of China. Yang Yubin, director of the Henan Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, said that since ancient times, human beings have thrived in Shangqiu and created a splendid civilization. Judging from the excavated cultural relics, there are Yangshao culture five or six thousand years ago, Longshan culture about four thousand years ago and pre-Shang culture more than two thousand years ago. According to 1984, the cultural relics survey of 8 counties 1 city in Shangqiu area shows that there are more than 1000 ancient cultural sites in the whole region (there are 802 cultural sites listed in China Cultural Relics Atlas). The Ming city wall of Shangqiu, a famous historical and cultural city in China, is basically well preserved, which is rare in China. The Han Tomb of Mangdang Mountain in Yongcheng County will soon be announced as a national key protected cultural relic. There are several sites of Han and Liang culture in Shangqiu, which are "the best in the world"-the largest tombs of princes. The tombs of King Zhongshan in Hebei, King Lu in Qufu in Shandong and King Chu in Xuzhou are much smaller than those of Mangdang Mountain in Yongcheng and their queens, and they were built later. Especially, the stone tomb of Queen Liang Xiaowang has two pyramids, 34 side rooms and cloisters, with a plane area of 1.6 million square meters and a volume of about 6,500 cubic meters. This is the first Han tomb in China.
