Archaeologists solve crimes and reveal the bronze statue of Yachang Niu Zun! What do you know about this cultural relic?
Archaeologists solved the case and revealed the bronze statue of Niu Zun in Yachang, which is the only bull-shaped bronze found in Yin Ruins so far. Archaeologists revealed that Luoyang shovel is used to judge whether there are tombs in underground soil and to identify the identity information of cultural relics owners. Why did our ancestors cast this bronze in the first place has aroused widespread concern in archaeology. I hope more and more young people will join in and carry forward Chinese civilization. This cultural relic has just come out and little is known about it. Here is a detailed introduction to this cultural relic, Yachang Niu Zun, a bronze ware:

1. Millennium cultural treasures. Niu Zun of Yachang belongs to the image bronze ware of Shang Dynasty, and Niu Zun is another treasure in the pictographic bronze ware of Shang Dynasty. The statue is green, with a carved tiger on the back of the cow as the handle, the mouth of the cow as the flow, and the whole body is decorated with meticulous Yun Leiwen and Kuiwen. It is exquisitely carved and lifelike, and it is an exquisite bronze ware production in ancient China. Bronzes in the early Shang and Zhou Dynasties were mostly ritual vessels showing power and status, offering sacrifices to ancestors and gods. Ding? The most outstanding, mostly square or round, is called. The heavy weapon of the country? Therefore, Niu Zun played a very important role in the history of China. It can be said that it is a thousand-year cultural treasure.

Second, the statue of A Chang Niu is an important sacrificial tool. In a sacrificial container? Respect? It is the most common, mainly used to hold wine during sacrifice, and it is round, square and bird-animal-shaped. Among them, there are many kinds of birds and beasts, especially cattle, horses and sheep. These gods are often called sacrificial gods, and there are many in bronze inscriptions. Zunyi? As a general term for bronzes, it shows that Niu Zun, as the main ritual vessel in the Bronze Age, is second only to Ding. Niu Zun should be used to warm wine in daily life, and the cup-shaped container with the middle hole should be a container for holding wine, which is equivalent to the current wine glass. The holes in Niu Zun's neck and buttocks are used for pouring hot water, and the lid is used for heat preservation, which is a sacrificial vessel for sacrifice. Niu Zun's excavation shows that by the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, bronzes were not only used to show power, status and worship ancestors and gods, but also in daily life, and their functions became more and more life-oriented. Even if they are used to show power and status, they should be displayed through the use of bronzes in daily life. Zhong Ming Shi Ding? Used to describe the scene of a wealthy family eating.

Thirdly, Niu Zun of Yachang also recorded very important historical information. In the late Spring and Autumn Period, the advanced ceramic mold technology of making decorative patterns by impression method appeared. More importantly, it shows that the decorative patterns of bronzes not only meet the needs of power and sacrifice, but also weaken the functions of warning and warning, and enhance the aesthetic functions of meeting the needs of civilians and paying attention to people's spiritual needs. The appearance of animal-shaped decorative patterns living on the earth on bronzes shows that with the gradual enhancement of people's ability to understand and resist nature in the late Spring and Autumn Period, people's awe of nature gradually weakened, and the relationship between man and nature tended to be harmonious, reflecting the rise of humanism in the late Spring and Autumn Period.
