Crystal-like crystal, no one will hate, especially in the crystal, you can also see a living small animal, through the long river of time, with its original face in front of the eyes of the world, giving people a mysterious and mysterious feeling. As a result, many people like to collect an amber piece, or make it into an ornament to keep in touch with their body, or use it as a pet on their desk, and look up after work to feel refreshed.
With the popularity of this game, players who like this game have also begun to wonder why ancient people would use amber to save their bodies, instead of using amber to save their bodies, but using secret medicine or injecting mercury into mausoleums, which is a dangerous and time-consuming thing.
First of all, we can be sure that this is just one thing, and thousands of years ago, many dynasties kept it in their libraries as precious fossils. But why is there no historical record of amber being used to store the dead? Thinking about it, there are three possibilities, one is that the cost is too high, the second is that it is too difficult to collect materials, and the third is disrespect for the deceased.
First of all, the cost is too high, because it comes from plants such as cypress and araucaria, and is formed by strong light exposure, just like the sweat of the human body in summer. This plant generally survives in rainforests, but for generations, let alone cities, even small villages have not set up their homes in dangerous rainforests.
Therefore, it cannot be produced in large quantities, and transparent amber can only be naturally produced if it is dripping naturally. Depending on its rarity, its value will increase exponentially, and ordinary people will not have much of a burden in their hands, but its value will increase a hundredfold.
For example, the most expensive one now weighs 192 kilograms, almost the weight of a pack of noodles, is estimated at 250 million, but this amber is only 59 centimeters long, 48 centimeters wide and 19 centimeters thick. However, the scale of this plant can be imagined, and it is at least a thousand years old, and it simply cannot accommodate a single adult man. So, if there is a giraffe in amber, it is a joke, and if it does happen, it is a failure.
Then there is a question, making a huge piece of amber is very expensive, and ordinary people can't afford it at all, why the emperors of all dynasties didn't get a piece. Judging from the situation in which Qin Shi Huang built this palace, if they really wanted to find a huge piece of amber that could hold one person, as long as there were enough rewards, there would always be people who would take risks, which is not impossible.
But it is very difficult to find inspiration, first, the previous society, not very developed, not modern society, but buy a ticket, and then take the train there. At that time, the speed of 800 kilometers per hour was still on paper and no one used it, and if an adventurer wanted to set off from the capital and search for amber in the rainforest, this trip alone would take several years.
Even so, it must be based on the premise that he knows the way and draws an ancient map. However, even if he can find this amber from such a distance, it is a big problem, in ancient times, horses were the most common mode of transportation, and in the rivers and seas, it can only accommodate a huge amber, even a person can not bear it, more than one meter high and one meter of amber, can accommodate an adult man, at least more than two meters tall, weighing at least one hundred and seventy kilograms, equivalent to a strong man.
In the end, even if you make it, it won't be possible to seal everyone inside. After all, the generation of amber also depends on luck, if there is a small creature that accidentally walks under the plant, and then is covered by a thick layer of oil, it is almost impossible to find it.
Although he would love to do this, according to the ancient people's concept, turning a person into a sample is not in line with the concept of respect and respect for the deceased that is now popular in society. The kings before the Han Dynasty spent their lives building their tombs, and they believed that human beings had two different lives, the first of which was to spend a hundred years under the sun.
The second is to live in an underground palace for a long time, and in case of emergency, they must furnish their palace as comfortably as possible, from the guards to the palace maids, and even the places to eat. In their opinion, the tiny life trapped in this space, even if the body can remain alive for thousands of years, cannot stay here forever, and maybe sympathize with the poor little ones.
This is also why ancient people did not use amber to preserve corpses, and it was also cumbersome to make. If there is a king who has a particular view of death, he has enough wealth, enough wealth to preserve his body for thousands of years, so that his descendants can remember him in reality, and not in the spiritual seat.
First of all, it is impossible for his body to be carried into the forest and soaked in rosin, and in general, in a maximum of twenty days, the body will completely rot, and even if there is enough ice, he will not last long. Just when Ye Xiao felt that his time was running out, he found a tree that was thousands of years old, and then, he began his journey and began his journey.
But rosin is spit out in small bites, not only does it make people feel painful, but more importantly, its quantity is an unpredictable variable, if it covers half of the Maharaja's body, then has it been sealed? Shouldn't the upper body be allowed to rot and the lower half to rot? This is not a simple burial, but a king who is admired by future generations, only the upper body, which is really terrible.
So, given the cost, materials and disrespect for the victims, it is almost impossible to store the remains in this way. At most, it is to find an ancient tree thousands of kilometers away from something that is very important to him, and preserve it.
It's not that there are no ancient people who want to stuff a body into it, but they all give up halfway, or can't even do a **, so it has never been recorded in history.
