Xuewei No. 1 Tomb, also known as the "Nine-Story Demon Tower" or "Nine-Story Demon Tower", is the most spectacular tomb in the ancient tombs of Dulan, Qinghai. After its discovery in 1996, it was immediately listed as one of the top ten new archaeological discoveries. Its majestic body is 33 meters high, resembling gold characters, as if it is the pyramid of the East. This tomb is in the form of a layer of cypress wood and a layer of stone, like a building, and is affectionately called the "nine-story demon tower" by the locals.
Legend of Tomb Robbery: The history of the nine-story demon tower.
However, this "nine-story demon tower" is not an actual tower building, but a form of tomb. Each floor is buried with a large number of funerary items, which has become a place for grave robbers. Historically, the tomb has been robbed many times, not only by small-scale robberies but also by organized warlords. Even in 2016, a gang of tomb robbers colluded with the protection station to steal a large number of artifacts, and fortunately, almost all of the artifacts involved were successfully recovered in 2018.
Archaeological Mystery: The technical puzzle behind the nine-story demon tower.
Due to the frequent occurrence of tomb robbery, the state has become more cautious in the archaeological work of the Xuewei No. 1 tomb. Although the excavation work began, it did not go well. With the in-depth excavation, the staff frequently faced the problem of hypoxia, and the technical problems have not been well solved. This also makes people wonder if the next excavations will usher in more special circumstances
Amazing discovery: the rich treasures of the nine-story demon tower.
However, despite all the troubles, the first two floors that have been cleared still bring amazing finds. The abundance of artefacts, artefacts and silks amazes archaeologists. What is even more amazing is that more than 700 animal remains such as horses, cows, and sheep were found in this tomb. In ancient times, even in the tombs of nomadic peoples, such an abundance of funerary animals was rare, highlighting the noble status of the tomb owner.
King of Tuyuhun: The identity of the owner of the nine-story demon tower has been revealed.
Regarding the identity of the owner of the tomb, after careful analysis by archaeological experts, it is almost certain that it is the high-ranking nobles of the Tuyuhun nation. Tuyuhun is the name of the country founded by Murong Tuyuhun, and it became a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty during the Tang Dynasty. With the decline of the Tang Dynasty, Tuyuhun gradually disappeared into the long river of history. The identity of the owner of the Xuewei No. 1 tomb is so high that the scale of the tomb is so large that it almost takes 10,000 people to work for more than a year to complete, which is rare among the tombs of ethnic minorities in the north.
The mystery of the identity of the King of Tuyuhun.
Until recently, when the Qinghai Cultural Relics Bureau was cleaning up the cultural relics, a silver seal was found. The pattern on this seal is a camel pattern, and the text is in ancient Tibetan. Tibetan scholars deciphered it and found that the text on the seal showed that the owner of the tomb was a king of Tuyuhun during the reign of Tibet.
Mohe Tuhun Khan: The true identity of the owner of the nine-story demon tower?
According to the records of the "Achai Chronicle (Fragment)" in the Dunhuang Tubo scriptures, the princess of Tubo was married to the king of Tuyuhun and gave birth to a son who was Mohe Tuhun Khan. Archaeologists speculate that the owner of this tomb is likely to be Mohe Tuhun Khan. However, this is only the tip of the truth, and more secrets remain waiting to be discovered.
The Mystery of the Artifact: The Mysterious Uses of Silver Seals.
Archaeologists have not been able to draw a definitive conclusion about the use of silver seals. Some experts believe that this may be a special artifact made by the owner of the tomb, because the tomb not only has a large number of luxurious items, but also has a prominent status, and the requirements for burial goods are also higher. It is worth noting that the pattern of this silver seal and the ancient Tibetan script are full of mystery, and perhaps there is a deeper meaning.
