With the advancement of archeology, unknown secrets are discovered from underground almost every moment in the world. Of course, there are also many excavated historical materials that will overturn existing theories, or Tell some established facts. It is even said that the unearthing of some materials or objects will overturn people's understanding of history. So what are the specific examples of these typical archaeological discoveries?

First, the unearthing of Zeng Houyi’s chimes completely rewrote the history of music in our country.

Originally we thought that the Chinese seven-tone scale was introduced from Europe, and this theory is generally accepted by the Chinese. But with the unearthing of Zeng Houyi's chimes, it not only proves that my country's casting art has developed to a relatively high level during the Warring States Period, but also proves that China's music culture has also developed greatly during the Warring States Period. It is nearly 2,000 years earlier than the appearance of keyboard instruments in Europe. The most important thing is that the excavation of this object has filled a gap in the field of music in China's early feudal society and completely rewritten the history of music in our country.

Secondly, the excavation of Blackwater City allowed people to see the mysterious script Xixia.

In 1908, the Russians discovered a treasure in Heishui City in northwest China. It was like an underground library and was estimated to have been buried underground for 800 years. In this library, there are not only unfamiliar texts, but also exquisite Buddha statues, gorgeous paintings, and even many or countless documents and classics. It was precisely because of the excavation of the Xixia ruins Heishui City that people found this lost civilization.

Thirdly, Afang Palace is an unfinished building.

It was generally believed that Afang Palace was burned by Xiang Yu at that time, and this has become people's basic knowledge. However, after the Shaanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology studied the Epang Palace, it was found that there was no red earth burned by fire on the soil layer of the Epang Palace. This shows that the Epang Palace was not burned by fire. And based on all the evidence, people found that Afang Palace is just an unfinished building, and it has only just begun to be built.
