Chapter 69 8000 Years of Chinese Civilization

Gu Gu didn't continue talking.

"Hmph! I think it's more than 8000 years, but the evidence that can actually prove that our civilization has exceeded 1 years is still insufficient." This is Wang Laozai.

This also signifies that they have acquiesced to Leng Hanhui's opinion.

In fact, Leng Hanhui was also a little puzzled. Scholars in any country should not ignore such a simple comparison, right?Unless, they are biased.

Prejudice is the great enemy in social science research, and it is also an external cultural manifestation of the abhorrent racial discrimination and discrimination in modern races.

He didn't know, his thoughts had already started to go astray.

When Gu was speaking, Gu Fengming had already opened the small package, revealing a dark, pointed black stone inside.

Elder Wang nodded first, expressing his approval of the old saying.

Elder Li and Elder Dong actually smiled at Leng Hanhui, and they applauded lightly a few times!

"Young man, you have not only learned Chinese medicine skills under Mr. Mei's school, but also have experience in archaeology. Then tell me, what do you think?" This is Mr. Li asking Leng Hanhui a question.

Because Mr. Dong and Mr. Wang had already occupied the tortoise shell and the conical black stone, he had to wait for those two to see enough before he could study it steadily.So, he focused on Leng Hanhui, a young man he thought was very interesting.

Leng Hanhui smiled: "You old man, don't laugh at me, I do have some opinions. In college, I studied ancient architecture. Let me ask you, is the real object of ancient architecture a kind of civilization? Accurate Is it a kind of material civilization?"

Old Li's smile faded.

In the journey of learning, there are no young and old, and it is the consensus of the academic circles that those who have achieved first come first.

He thought for a while seriously: "Of course it is a kind of civilization. Our ancient buildings are an important symbol in the history of human architecture and occupy a high position in the history of world architecture.

However, I don't understand, what does this have to do with Chinese civilization? "

Leng Hanhui said: "Carrier! The carrier that carries this culture! Specifically, I ask you what is the carrier that carries the culture or civilization of ancient Egypt, Babylon, Greece, and Maya?"

He didn't wait for Mr. Li to answer, and he didn't need to answer, he continued: "I know that when the Jiahu engraved talismans were discovered, these seventeen kinds of engraved talismans were inscribed on different utensils.

There are tortoise shells, bones, stones, and the most important thing is pottery! "

Old Li's eyes lit up all of a sudden!

"This shows that as early as 8000 years ago, our ancestors could already make pottery.

Burning paper pottery is a way of smelting, then, did our ancestors smelt bronzes and other metals with very low melting points?Has it been smelted?

Going back to the original question first, Jiahu engraved symbols not only have pottery, but also can engrave symbols on the top of pottery.

These symbols obviously bear the evidence of the original text, that is, the characteristics of horizontal and vertical hooks, squares and radicals.

These are in line with our text features.

Therefore, pottery itself is a kind of civilization. To a certain extent, it represents that 8000 years ago, our ancestors had those nations that claimed to have a civilization of more than 5000 years, and they did not have liquid and granular food smelting. out of the tool.

Of course, with the use of various fires, the role of these pottery is even greater.Isn't this the most basic expression of civilization?

It is important to say that part of the Jiahu engraved talisman was found on the top of the pottery.What does this mean?It shows that the civilization at that time not only had the practical stage of pottery in the late Stone Age, but also had the concept of aesthetics.

As for the Majiayao bronze knife discovered more than 5000 years ago, I think it is only a dating discovery in our ancient civilization, which does not mean that bronze ware or other low-melting-point metal objects have not been smelted hundreds or even thousands of years ago.

It's just that there is no evidence to prove it, so it needs to be discovered.

Tortoise shells may be used for divination purposes. Then, can the engraving of symbols on bones, stones, and especially pottery on these objects be understood as a form of expression in early art? "

Leng Hanhui felt the sudden silence in the ward, he hurriedly stopped talking, and looked at the four elderly people.

Including Gu Fengming, five people looked at him as if they were monsters.

Leng Hanhui suddenly realized that he was a little talkative today.

"Well, I'm just playing tricks in class, and I made some old people laugh. I'll pour water for you, are you old people thirsty?" Leng Hanhui felt like a primary school student talking to a university professor. Talk about four application problems.

"Come back to me, now you answer my question." Wang Lao suddenly said to Leng Hanhui seriously.

Leng Hanhui said in his heart, it's over, the information I found on the Internet was because I wanted to study and verify the history of ancient architecture. In his opinion, the ideas and concepts proposed are not rigorous at all, let alone extensive.Now I don't know why these words suddenly popped up, isn't this just making me feel uncomfortable?

"You ask, I'm taking the liberty today, and I've delayed the study of this treasure by the elders. Please ask simple questions, so as not to embarrass me too much." Although Leng Hanhui was really a little embarrassed, he was not nervous.

He has met quite a few more authoritative scholars, all of whom are very humble.

"Okay, let me ask you, do you know what civilization is?" Elder Wang became a little aggressive.

Leng Hanhui said with a smile: "You are asking what is the standard for a mature civilization?"

Old Wang blushed: "You can also say that."

Leng Hanhui said: "This is relatively simple. I heard from my teachers in elementary and junior high that there are three criteria for a mature civilization.

First of all, there must be words.Even if there are words that few people can understand and can write, including knife carvings and carvings.

Secondly, there are bronze wares, which must be available.Copper is a metal with a very low melting point, and the melting point of lead and tin is lower. The mixture of copper, lead and tin is called bronze.

This is a method of smelting bronze alloys independently researched by our ancestors. Unlike West Asia, South Asia and North Africa, our bronze alloy smelting technology was not transmitted from other nations.

Again, there must be cities.Of course, the ancient city may be a community, a gathering place with fixed dwelling houses that live around springs, wells and rivers.

Such as shacks, thatched houses, tree holes and houses made of stone and mud.

This may be the earliest ancient building.

Later, due to the increasing development of civilization, people's aesthetic views began to evolve or progress in one direction, and grand buildings with cornices and brackets appeared. This is the direction of my research, and my ambition is to transform the ancient Combining the grandeur, sturdiness, massiness, simplicity and beauty of modern architecture with today's comfort and practicality, a beautiful and comfortable building is created. I want to..."

"Stop it, digressing, when did I ask you about ancient buildings? Are you using the knowledge you learned in elementary school to tease us old folks?" Elder Wang was a little unhappy.

Gu Gu interjected with a smile: "Han Hui was originally obsessed with ancient buildings, so he went back to his professional field after talking?

Let me tell you, old Wangtou, if we talk about ancient architecture, it is Han Hui's field of knowledge, and even eight of you are no match for him.Therefore, if you specialize in surgery, don't make things difficult for Han Hui. "

Wang Laodao: "You old guy, I want to say, what this kid just said is that spiritual civilization must have material, that is, material civilization as a carrier to survive and pass on. Can't come out?

Therefore, I think that this kid is criticizing us old guys, if we can’t just sit and talk, we must find more physical evidence to prove that our civilization is not ranked fourth in the world .It should be number one. "

Gu Gu took it over and said: "Right! I always thought that the Chinese civilization is 8000 years old!

Not 5000 years, much less 3000 years as some people think.In addition to this Jiahu engraved talisman inherited from my family, plus the national Jiahu engraved talisman, there are a total of 21 pieces!Want evidence?I have two more here. "
