292. Hongshan Culture, Dragons Five Thousand Years Ago!
292. Hongshan Culture, Dragons Five Thousand Years Ago!
Hearing something, all the people present had no doubts about it, but walked over quickly.
【Hongshan Culture Jade Dragon】
[Jade ware from the Neolithic period, a sacrificial vessel]
[Jade Dragon is dark green all over, 26 cm high, intact, curled up, in the shape of a C]
When this cultural relic was held in Fang Yang's hand, because the color was too dark, it looked somewhat similar to the color of those piled stones, and it was not sure whether it was a cultural relic for a while.
Their voices have obvious doubts at this moment, and even include a little hesitation.
"Are you sure this is a cultural relic?"
Someone couldn't help but whispered.
As a result, he was beaten on the head by the senior brother next to him.
"Usually let you study hard, so that you won't expose how ignorant you are at this moment.
"Senior brother, I'll just talk casually, there's no other meaning, I'm sure I won't talk nonsense at this time."
The person who was hit on the head laughed twice, and at the same time asked Fang Yang in a very low voice: "Fang Yang, can you let me have a look at this thing and study it?
Fang Yang passed the things over without any hesitation.
"The nose is symmetrical, the mouth is tightly closed, and some are curved upwards. At first glance, it looks like a snake, but now it looks like it should be a dragon."
The young man quickly came to such a conclusion, and there was obvious surprise in his tone.
"It's a dragon." The young man's brother took the thing and looked it over carefully: "It has a symmetrical single hole on its back, and its eyes... are a little protruding, looking like a rhombus."
Others also took a closer look: "Overall, it looks a bit smooth, as long as the forehead and the jaw are somewhat grid-like, and the grid is a little raised, it looks like a very regular small rhombus."
"At a rough glance, I don't think there is anything special about this shape, but now it looks a bit lively and interesting."
"Hanging through the holes, the first balance is the highlight of this item."
"However, things like jade, no matter how big or small, are all about balance."
Everyone conducts research around this newly dug up item.
"The material should be Xiuyu."
"In ancient times, jade wares were always made from local materials. Although it is impossible to judge the age of this item, the reason should be the same."
This is what these archaeological experts can roughly judge.
Hearing what they said, Fang Yang stood by and did not interrupt.
When they were all at a loss for words, they turned their gazes to Fang Yang next to him, and asked politely: "Fang Yang, do you have any insights? Or can you see something? "
Although they didn't say it clearly, it can be seen from their eyes that they are very much looking forward to Fang Yang's next insights.
Fang Yang pinched his chin with his fingers and said with a smile: "I can't say what I think, but there are a few points I really want to say.
"If I read this item correctly, it should be the Hongshan Culture Jade Dragon."
"Hongshan culture?"
As soon as Fang Yang spoke, the others became less calm.
"The Hongshan Culture and the Yangshao Culture are about the same period, and they are both cultures from 5,000 to 6,000 years ago."
"There are more microlithic tools in the Hongshan Culture, but very few painted pottery, and in some places there is even no painted pottery at all."
Fang Yang just opened his mouth for a while, and then he was interrupted directly.
"There are no historical records, how can you judge its identity?"
"Archaeological inferences about cultural relics must be recorded in detail by historical materials, not random guesses."
Fang Yang was not angry when he was interrupted, he continued slowly: "The cultural relics left over from the Hongshan Culture have very special characteristics, especially the fine stone tools, which are very developed.
"Jade carving has a high level of craftsmanship, and most of the production is grinding. The shapes of jade wares include pig dragons, jade turtles, and jade birds."
"Because only this item has been unearthed now, it is natural for you to have doubts. After you have unearthed more items from the Hongshan Culture, you will be able to judge that what I am talking about is true. Fake."
【Qi】+1+1+1+1.
[What about the Hongshan culture? I think Fang Yang definitely missed it this time. It doesn’t look like jade, but iron or lead. 】
[He Moyu is black, and it is also a kind of Xiuyu. It is indeed jade, so don't talk nonsense if you don't understand it. 】
【If this object is really a culture from 5,000 to 6,000 years ago, then it is absolutely impossible to be iron, because at that time there was no iron-smelting technology that could produce such an image. 】
[I don't see anything that looks like a dragon at all, and I feel that these archaeological experts are a little too far-fetched. 】
[Dragon before the Han Dynasty was actually a snake. The dragon in Huaxia actually evolved, and it didn't come out all at once. This can actually show the shallowness of our country and the evolution of culture. 】
[No matter how meaningful this cultural relic is, it is completely incomprehensible to us ordinary people. If I accidentally picked it up, I would just treat it as a small thing and play with it casually, and then throw it in the trash after I finished playing. 】
[It looks like the handle on some urinals. 】
【Upstairs, do you want to laugh at me to death, and then inherit my family's inheritance?】
【This is the dragon from 5000 years ago? It looks like Loach 480. 】
Very different from the cultural relics excavated before, this time, this small thing looks too ordinary, but it makes everyone lose interest.
Fang Yang knew the identity and value of this cultural relic, so he always treated it with care.
But other people don't know at all, and there are no written historical records, so they maintain a skeptical attitude and raise many questions, which is also something that can be understood
"The Hongshan Culture was unearthed in ancient times."
"And this is another jade dragon made by hand."
"You can imagine that in ancient times, people were in the grinding period. If you want to grind this jade that is harder than stone, you need to spend a lot of patience and time to polish it, right?"
"In ancient times, people were full of curiosity about many things."
"But most of the time they don't understand at all, so they can only ask questions, who to ask? To the gods, to heaven."
"So since ancient times, they have habitually held some rituals."
"Sing and dance or worship something, and then let God see our sincerity and answer our confusion."
"And this item is likely to be a sacrifice, a sacrifice to ask the heavens."
