Exploring the legend of Emperor Baling of the Han Dynasty
1.The Jiangcun Tomb is the mausoleum of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
On December 14, 2021, the State Administration of Cultural Heritage held an online press conference in Beijing, announcing that the tomb of Jiang Village on Bailuyuan in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, was the tomb of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty. In fact, the claim that the tomb of Emperor Wen of Han is in the tomb of Jiangcun was confirmed as early as early 2016, but the State Administration of Cultural Heritage was more cautious and the evidence was more powerful.
In 2001, the tomb of Empress Dowager Dou was stolen, and the stolen artifacts were honorably auctioned at Sotheby's. Thanks to the efforts of the National Administration of Cultural Heritage and ***, 6 artifacts were eventually repatriated.
The Gangchon Tomb is still the result of tomb robbing, and the robbers make as many holes as the ants. These robberies are from different dynasties as well as modern ones. In modern times, a large number of tomb robbers have been brought to justice, and the tomb of Jiangcun has also begun to attract the attention of the cultural relics community, and a series of research work has been carried out. This led to the discovery of a particularly large one"down"The zigzag tomb, with a tomb road of 250 meters, is considered by many scholars to be the tomb of the Baling Emperor of the Han Dynasty. down"The glyph shape and the 250-meter-long tomb passage are typical features of imperial tombs.
According to archaeological discoveries, this place was originally considered to be the ancestral hall of the phoenix's mouth, but only loess. The Ming and Qing dynasties and other dynasties decided to sacrifice the phoenix's mouth, but now it seems to have become an isolated place of worship.
In 2019, the state designated the Jiangcun Ancient Tomb as a national key cultural relics protection unit.
2.The origins of the Baringa location dispute.
Since Empress Dou's mausoleum is there, and Baling can only be next to it, there is no doubt about the approximate location of Baling.
The dispute over the location of Baling was actually caused by Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty himself. Emperor Wen of Han was a well-known thrifty monarch in history, and after his death, he left an order that the mausoleum should not use high sealing soil. Therefore, Baling does not have a high sealing soil, and like other Western Han Dynasty imperial tombs, it cannot be recognized at a glance because of the high sealing soil. Historical records.
Bowling) they don't deal with graves, they want to be provincial, they don't bother people...The face of Balinga has not changed with age"。
Why do many people think that Xiafenghuangkou is the burial site of Baling? It's because there is"Because the mountain is an ancestral hall and not a tomb"Therefore, people mistakenly think that the lower phoenix mouth is the location of the ancestral hall. Later generations such as the Ming and Qing dynasties chose to sacrifice the phoenix's mouth, and now it seems that only one was sacrificed.
Bahrain 3 was also affected.
The frugal life of Emperor Wen of Han was in his edict"Going down in history", but also set a precedent for unprecedented frugality in ancient history.
But the Bahraini tombs have not escaped the fate of being stolen.
After Wang Mang's defeat, Emperor Changshi went to Chang'an. 250,000 Red Eyebrow troops also arrived in Chang'an.
People starved and killed each other, hundreds of thousands died. Chang'an City is devastated, and there is no grass. All the temples and gardens have been excavated, and only the Baling and Duling are well preserved.
During the Western Jin Dynasty, the world was in turmoil and thieves were rampant.
In May, Liu Cong attacked Jinzhou. In June, Han Ba, Du's Second Mausoleum and Taoyuan Empress Dowager's Mausoleum, gold and jade silk, did not die.
Today's Baling is riddled with holes, but fortunately, it has survived, which is a sad blessing.
4.Finally, let's talk about the protection of imperial tombs.
The discovery of Baling means that the emperor's tomb is finally under the protection of the state, which is a blessing.
There are many imperial tombs in China, and there are a total of 494 emperors in Chinese history. If we want to keep them all, it will be a very difficult task.
Many mausoleums are well preserved, such as the Ming Tombs and the Qing Tombs, and due to their proximity to Beijing and large populations, they can also rely on tourism income to increase income and subsidize resources.
However, the number of mausoleums is still very large and scattered, and it is not realistic to ensure the protection of all mausoleums.
Feng Maoling is not a problem among the five emperors' tombs, and Feng Ling is also casually crawling and playing, because the museum is next to Huoling, but a large number of tourists do not go to Huoling, but go to Maoling.
Needless to say, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang sealed the soil, but a few years ago, the tourists Terracotta Warriors and Horses went to seal the soil to play, and no one cared, the pomegranate tree is quite big, but there is a notice that the pomegranate can not be eaten, it is very poisonous.
This is the case with these two tombs, and it is likely that this is also the case with the other nameless graves.
5.Ancient poems of Balinga.
Baling has always been a place for old people to say goodbye. Baling is also famous for its poetry.
Tang-Li Bai "Remembering Qin E" The sound of the orchestra, Qin E's dream broke Qin Louyue. Qin Louyue, willow color every year, Baling hurts goodbye. The autumn festival of the happy garden, the ancient road of Xianyang, the sound of dust disappears. The sound of dust is absolute, the west wind is absolute, and the Han family mausoleum is absolute.
Northern Song Dynasty Youth Baqiao Xing--Liu Yong's "Shadow of the Smoke Tree" and "Once Upon a Time in the Wind". The old willow tree of the declining poplar is folded a few times, and the belt of the Chu Palace is weak. The sunset and autumn light are old, and I am full of thoughts. The sound of broken intestines is in the yang guan song, leaving me and Youlan alone.
