Sanxingdui site was excavated again after 34 years. Why didn't you dig for 34 years

If you knew about archaeology, would you hear about it? Sanxingdui civilization? It is one of the greatest archaeological discoveries in the 20th century, and many of its contents have subverted people's inherent cognition, which is likely to rewrite history, and many of its contents are not recorded in relevant historical materials. It can be said that an archaeologist facing Sanxingdui is like an ignorant baby going to participate in the Olympic Mathematics Competition. In order to prevent the damage caused by hasty excavation, the archaeological team suspended the excavation.

0 1, archaeological work of Sanxingdui site resumed. Sanxingdui site is located in Guanghan city, Sichuan Province. It was discovered by 1929. However, its excavation process is extremely difficult and often stagnates. About 100 years later, we still haven't caught a glimpse of it. At the consultation meeting held in 2020, the news that Sanxingdui site was excavated again was finally revealed. Sacrificial pit 1 and 2? The information has been basically found out, for the next step to explore new discoveries? Sacrificial pit? Laid a good foundation.

02. The discovery of Sanxingdui site is shocking. It can be seen from the high attention paid by archaeological units and all walks of life to Sanxingdui site that the excavation of Sanxingdui site needs to be cautious, because every discovery may break history, refresh records and produce new ideas.

Many cultural relics unearthed from Sanxingdui site are precious cultural heritage of all mankind, and they are unique and rare treasures that have never been seen before. It also proves that the source of China culture may be not only in the Yellow River basin, but also in the Yangtze River basin. What is even more shocking is that more than 5,000 shells have been unearthed. These shells actually come from the Indian Ocean. How did it get these seashells in the ancient Shu era more than 3 thousand years ago?

You know, the ancient Shu kingdom is located in the southwest, far from the sea. Is the ancient Shu culture a foreign culture? Or is the ancient Shu culture the world cultural center at that time? Or a civilization that does not belong to the earth? All the above questions need to be answered.

03. 1980 The bronze figures unearthed represent the characteristics of Sanxingdui culture. Its form is far from the traditional culture in cognition. Some people say it looks more like a foreigner.

According to Huayang Guozhi? Shu Zhi's description: Can Cong? Is the king only when the eyes are vertical? You can probably infer that this is Can Cong's idol, and later generations made statues according to his legendary characteristics, and then made sacrifices.

Can Cong here is Can Cong in Li Bai's Difficult Road to Shu. Until the two rulers of this area forced their way through in the foggy age! Forty-eight thousand years have passed. Don't talk to Qin Sai. ? Think about such difficult traffic conditions and rugged terrain, how did it create a brilliant civilization? Why can thousands of precious large and exquisite cultural relics be excavated from the site of 1200 hectares?

04. Unearthed bronze sun gear-like object This bronze sun gear-like object, at first glance, I thought it was the steering wheel of a car. A closer look reveals that it is a perfect circle with a convex center, and five equally divided stars around it are connected with the peripheral halo. Combined with the sun decoration of its surrounding objects, it can be inferred that it is a portrayal of the sun and a manifestation of sun worship in ancient Shu culture.

In addition, there are bronze sacred trees as high as 3.95 meters, bronze colossus as high as 2.62 meters, bronze masks as wide as 1.38 meters, and cultural relics such as golden scepter, sunbird gold foil, golden chrysanthemum, Shi Hu, stone man, jade and bronze ware, which give people a strong visual impact and infinite confusion.

Finally, I look forward to the re-excavation of Sanxingdui, hoping that it will bring us more surprises and give us a glimpse of more historical truths, and I hope that experts can crack its secrets as soon as possible.
