Oracle Bone Inscriptions and the Lifestyle and Cultural Phenomenon of Ancient Ancestors
Oracle Bone Inscriptions and the life style and cultural phenomena of ancient ancestors. I feel very happy to answer your question, because I am also interested in ancient Shu culture, and I am writing a novel about ancient Shu civilization recently. Jinsha, a western suburb of Chengdu, is a large-scale cultural site of ancient Shu in Shang, Zhou and Zhou dynasties with an area of nearly 5 square kilometers. A large number of exquisite gold, copper, jade, stone tools, ivory and other precious cultural relics were unearthed, which made a powerful ancient Shu dynasty at least 3000 years reappear in front of people. According to Zhu, stationmaster of Jinsha Site Workstation of Chengdu Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, the discovery of Jinsha Site pushed the urban history of Chengdu at least 3,000 years ago, which means that Chengdu is probably the only big city in China with the same city for 3,000 years, and it was quite developed at that time. Among the cultural relics unearthed from Jinsha site, gold wares, jade articles and ivory are particularly striking, especially ivory, which ranks first in the country in terms of tons. These artifacts often represented noble and sacred power in the early days of human civilization, and their discovery probably filled the gap in ancient Shu before there was an exact written record. However, the artifacts unearthed in the site, such as Jin Mianju, Golden Crown Belt, Frog-shaped Gold Foil and Sun Bird Gold Foil, show the glory of ancient Shu civilization, which can be called a classic of goldware processing technology in the same period. In the museum where the cultural relics unearthed from Jinsha site are temporarily stored, we also saw a large number of beautifully made jade Zhang, jade GUI and jade concave chisel. These jades are bright in color, diverse in color and finely polished, which shows that the ancient Shu people had a deep understanding of the jade-making technology, technological process and tools at that time. Before the discovery of Jinsha site, people always thought that the beginning of Chengdu plain civilization began after Qin entered Shu. Zhu described the Chengdu Plain at that time as "no words, no rites and music". Nowadays, the excavation results from Sanxingdui in Guanghan to Jinsha in Chengdu, the boat coffin in commercial street and other sites eloquently prove that Qin civilization had entered the civilized era before it entered the Chengdu Plain, and it had a highly developed material culture and spiritual culture different from other civilizations in the Yellow River Basin. This is the ancient Shu civilization that was later lost to history. The origin of Yusuf Master Roshi and the mystery of Samsung have many colors. I suggest you read a book called The Rise and Fall of Yufu Dynasty, which is very satisfied with the explanation of ancient Shu.
