The locals in Luoyang call it Liu Xiu’s tomb, and the official statement is that it is the original tomb of Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty. I have heard about Liu Xiu’s tomb for a long time. There are many tombs of emperors and generals around Beimengjin in Luoyang. Only the original mausoleum is built on the beach of the Yellow River with mountains in the north and water in the south, Mangshan in the north and the Yellow River in the south. Others are traditional layouts facing south facing mountains and water. Since the opening of Liu Xiu Mausoleum, it has not become popular. However, the mutton soup on the roadside in front of the mausoleum has become more popular. Mengjin Tiexie Sheep and White Crane Fu Broth Soup is an intangible cultural heritage of Luoyang. Mengjin Baihe Town, where Liu Xiu’s original mausoleum is located, Why is the place on the bank of the Yellow River at the foot of Mang Mountain called White Crane? I asked a few local people who opened the shop, but they couldn't explain it clearly. Some sources say it was the prince of King Ling of Zhou who rode a crane to ascend to immortality, and some sources say it was because the king stopped here. Can (one of the Seven Sons of Jian'an, a scholar in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and Cao Wei Dynasty) wrote "White Crane Ode" and got its name no matter what, it is always related to the beautiful mountains and rivers here. There is also the famous Bird Island in the Yellow River, and the ecological environment has been better since ancient times. Yellow River carp, Yellow River rocks, and Tiexie mutton soup are the three treasures of Baihe. I have been to the Mausoleum of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty in Baihe Town twice, and I paid a more in-depth visit during the National Day holiday. This is not a deliberate falsehood, but the truth has not been found, and can only be verified by the closest historical records. Henan has a vast land and rich history, but a province with strong cultural confidence must also seek truth from facts. Controversies are disputes. We cannot keep silent for fear of being criticized by "some prejudiced Shaanxi comrades". My greatest interest in the tomb of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty is that it is confusing. At present, the official has certified that it is Liu Xiu's tomb based on historical reasons, and private and academic circles have also There have always been voices that think this is not entirely accurate. CCTV has a special program called "Mangshan", which introduces the culture of Mangshan in Henan in several episodes. One of them talks about the controversy over the tomb of Emperor Guangwu, and they think that other tombs not far away may be the reason. It is the real original tomb. The CCTV did not say anything for certain, but only put forward theories, saying that more evidence must be proved by archaeological development. Most of the Ming and Qing inscriptions are weathered and almost invisible. The picture shows the Daoguang inscriptions of the Qing Dynasty that are barely visible. The inscriptions on the Qing Dynasty stele are weathered and almost invisible. The picture shows the barely legible Daoguang inscriptions of the Qing Dynasty. With the strong cultural recognition of ""Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou and buried in Bei Mang"", Mang Mountain in the north of Luoyang historically became a place for emperors, generals, ministers, nobles, and even It is a centralized funeral place for the people. The strict Mang Mountain is from the north of Luoyang to the point where the Yiluo River enters the Yellow River in Gongyi. The broad Mang Mountain is the Guangwu Mountain on the border of Zhengzhou. Tomb robbing was frowned upon in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It must be protected. The problem arose when a county magistrate in the Qing Dynasty messed up the boundaries of the Mangshan Mountains under his jurisdiction. The county magistrate was well-intentioned and wanted to sort out the various tombs. However, he was limited by his personal talents and information and could not give each tomb a title. At present, the identification of most of the tombs in the Qing Dynasty is problematic. The earliest records of Liu Xiu's tomb are from the Song Dynasty, and the existing inscriptions are also from the Song Dynasty. The most famous inscription from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty is ""The Great Song Dynasty Newly Renovated Later Han Guangwu Temple Stele"" instead of ""rebuilt" (a common word used in later generations to maintain historical tombs and buildings). These words also buried a certain amount of controversy. Space. The Qianlong year inscription in front of the tomb was already called "Eastern Han" in the Qing Dynasty? It was also called "Later Han" in the Song Dynasty. Another controversy about the Guangwu Emperor's mausoleum is that it was the Yellow River (now a beach), so it is unlikely to be hidden. in the water. And the existing mausoleum mound may be a ceremonial platform for worshiping heaven or water in the Northern Wei Dynasty. In Feng Shui, it is also very strange to "rest on the water and the mountains". As for Liu Xiu's son Liu Zhuang being disobedient and often rebelling, Liu Xiu deliberately said "bury the water" and asked his son to do the opposite but Liu Zhuang obeyed. Folk gossip tells the story of the tomb being built when Liu Xiu was still alive. Most of the existing historical documents do not show the actual location of the original tomb, which was also due to the changes in Luoyang City. The distance and landmarks are controversial and unclear. Around 1982, many Japanese historical experts came to Henan to study and explore, and put forward many hypotheses. In recent years, there has been controversy in the academic community about the location of the new tombs, including Panlong Tomb and Liujiajing. There are many hypotheses such as the tomb (mostly unnamed tombs with the names of other local villages in Luoyang), especially Liujiajing, but it is impossible to excavate and verify it under the current law.
However, around 2000, Henan University established the "Research on the Imperial Tombs of the Eastern Han Dynasty" project to conduct special research; the Luoyang Municipal Institute of Cultural Relics and Archeology combined with the "Archaeological Survey and Survey of the Mangshan Tomb Group" project to actively search for the Eastern Han Dynasty imperial tombs and conduct research on possible Eastern Han Dynasty imperial tombs. A large-scale survey and exploration was conducted on the imperial mausoleum and its mausoleum site. The survey results were rated as one of the top ten archaeological discoveries in 2017. The detailed report of some of the large tombs tended to be a misidentification of the Han Guangwu Emperor's mausoleum. The uncontroversial history of the large and small tomb sites in archaeological materials is interesting. Although Liu Xiu's tomb is controversial, there is no dispute that it is located in Luoyang, Henan (the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty was Luoyang), but these misidentifications cannot be accurately verified. Whether it is confusion or confusion, it is a joke of history and the unintentional hand of time. Confidence in culture and confidence in road, Henan ranks first in underground cultural relics (No. 1 in above-ground cultural relics in Shanxi). No matter what, it is worthy of pride and worthy of in-depth study. , interesting, and also a traffic driver, urging us to learn and think about history.
