Reporter Qiu Zhiqiang photo "Daxinzhuang Shang Dynasty ruins, absolutely national treasure." Whenever archaeologists talk about the Daxinzhuang site in Ji'nan, they all exclaim admiration and surprise. Not only is the Shang Dynasty bronzes and round tripod unearthed in the ruins, but also represents the civilization and prosperity of Ji'nan, which has become a monument to which the city is proud. The discovery of
unearthed unearthed pieces of a rare merchant's Oracle Oracle is a miracle at the great Xinzhuang site in the middle of the Austrian road. The plants are covered with a green blanket. On the southwest side of the site, the steles of the big Xinzhuang site, erect in the swaying of the trees, are engraved with the "Shandong Revolutionary Committee on December 23, 1977". In 1977, Daxinzhuang was published as the first batch of key cultural relics protection units in Shandong. Facing the stone tablet, there is a ravine from the southeast to the northwest, and the staff of the guard site said that many cultural relics of the Shang Dynasty were unearthed here. In 1970, a collection of bronzes, such as weapons, axes, knives, vehicles, and so on, were excavated in Ji'nan Museum. In 1984, a number of objects were collected, including tripod, Jue, Jue, GE and so on. The most important excavation was 2010, which found important burial areas, unearthed a large number of bronzes and jade articles, of which the unearthed copper tripod was comparable to the great tripod unearthed from the Zhengzhou commercial city. The high specification and combination of utensils are rare in the whole country. The excavation is regarded as the ten major archaeological discoveries in China.
it is worth mentioning that the oracle bone inscriptions were unearthed in the 2003 excavation. After the combination, there were 4 pieces, one of which had the largest 34 words, the tortoise beetle. Li Ming, the director of the Archaeological Institute of Ji'nan, said that, in addition to the oracle bones unearthed from Anyang and Zhengzhou, it is very rare to see the oracle bone inscriptions unearthed regularly, which is also one of the reasons for the high value of the unearthed study of the great Xinzhuang oracle bone inscriptions.
"several excavation of Daxinzhuang site, the cultural content is heavier and heavier, and its social status is more and more prominent." A large number of burial areas are rare to dig out a large number of noble objects, and empty sites are unmanned. However, perhaps thousands of years ago, there may be gorgeous cars and cars. Perhaps the members of the Shang Dynasty are often stationed here. It shows that the social and economic development of a region, the words and utensils can not be less, in the hierarchical system of the Shang Dynasty, these have become the symbol of prosperity, in 2003, Oracle unearthed, recounting the prosperity and civilization. The oracle bone inscription is the material evidence of the highest leading crowd, which is the embodiment of the highest level of social development at that time. Only the royal members and the higher nobles of the capital have the right to use the words. "The use of oracle bones is certainly not an ordinary place." The class character of the text indicates the importance of Daxin Zhuang in the whole country at that time.
"Daxinzhuang unearthed a large number of bronzes, and bronze ware was mastered by the highest leadership." Li Ming said. In 2010, the bronze ware unearthed from Daxinzhuang was never seen before, showing a very high bronze casting technology. One of them has two rings along its bottom and is very rare. The weight of the bronze ware showed that the master of the tomb of Daxinzhuang was a high aristocrat at that time, and the great Xinzhuang and Shang Dynasty were closely related both politically and economically.
at the same time, the size of the grave area discovered in the same year was not found in all previous discoveries. The noble artifacts such as gold foil and tripod in the Shang Dynasty, which were excavated, are the eminent symbols in the early Shang Dynasty culture, only royal families. "This shows that the region is closely related to the central authorities." Li Ming said. Some experts therefore speculated that the Daxinzhuang site should be the first station after the Shang Dynasty replaced the Xia Dynasty in the Central Plains, and the first station after the expansion of the Shandong was the ruling center of the Shang Dynasty. The
site should be paid more attention and protection to be further deepened as the "national treasure level" site, many people are still more strange to the Daxinzhuang site. In the public evaluation of the recent construction planning of rail transit, the R2 Line West Zhou Jia Zhuang station to the industrial North Road station passes through the national cultural relic protection range of the Daxinzhuang site of the calendar district. Cultural relics protection experts believe that track traversing will cause incomplete sites to some extent, not in the main part of the construction, many people also worry that the construction of track will cause damage to the site.
Li Ming said that as an important site, Daxinzhuang should be given due attention and protection. Now many sites have set up parks and protected areas, and we should consciously plan and build them in a subtle way. For example, we can create products, signboards, signposts, parks and so on. "We can't just regard the site as a piece of soil. Its influence and education on human beings far exceed people's imagination."
at the same time, at the same time, the study of the great Xinzhuang site is just beginning. The importance and cultural content of the great Xinzhuang site have not yet been fully understood. Many are only a case study. The study of the grand Xinzhuang site on the whole, especially the impact on the whole region of Shandong and the influence on the whole country It remains to be further deepened. "We now have more research on small areas, and lack of a whole study, such as the size of the site, the division of the site and the change of the region." Li Ming believes that the trend of research on Daxinzhuang should be holistic rather than simply studying several artifacts. "Once we have a renewed understanding of Da Xin Zhuang, we must re establish its scope." Li Ming said that the wall of Daxinzhuang ruins has not been found until now, which is a defect.
