There are 65,438+million grave robbers in China, and the threshold is extremely low. Influenced by familiarity with local customs and topography, many tombs were discovered by local people. So a local farmer had a little evil thoughts and picked up a hoe to be a grave robber.
Grave robbers are very simple and rude. They found the grave, went in, stole it and lived together. They are for money, and they will not consider protecting cultural relics at all. Archaeology is for protection, so many tombs that have been razed to the ground are first discovered by grave robbers, and then archaeologists wipe their bottoms.
Why are grave robbers always ahead of archaeologists? In fact, there are three real reasons:
1, China's current archaeological policy is: "Do not take the initiative to excavate any tombs that have not been excavated or stolen." The emergence of this policy has to talk about one person. This person is Guo Moruo. Some people say that he is a sinner in the archaeological system and a well-known "educator", "writer" and "archaeologist" in China. As for which is worth it, everyone can judge for themselves.
The purpose of grave robbers is money. As long as they can enter the tomb, get the funerary objects, find a place casually, find a tool, break the tomb and take things. The purpose of archaeologists is to protect cultural relics, how to enter the tomb, how to enter it, and where to enter it. Naturally, it is much slower than grave robbers. As archaeologists, they generally don't take the initiative to look for ancient tombs. Their job is to dig and study the ancient tombs that have been discovered.
3. Have a professional grave to locate the Feng Shui master. There must be some powerful feng shui masters in the grave robbery organization. If there is no feng shui master, looking for an ancient tomb is like looking for a needle in a haystack. The location of the ancient tomb is the specialty of Feng Shui master. For example, a little-known person can locate a grave in a small area. In this way, there will be more work and basically it will be easy to get it done.
