What are the nine treasures of Henan Museum? What are the historical stories behind it?
1, bronze square pot of Zhenglianhe in Spring and Autumn Period

1923 was unearthed in Lijialou Village, Chengguan, Xinzheng, Henan Province. It is a key cultural relic and protected. Lotus Crane Square Pot, a bronze container for wine or water in the mid-Spring and Autumn Period, is the first batch of cultural relics forbidden to go abroad in China. 1923 was unearthed in Gong Zheng's tomb in Lijialou, Xinzheng, Henan. One is in the Bronze Museum of the Palace Museum in Beijing, and the other is in the Henan Museum.

I'm afraid there is no such elegant and proud lid in the world. Cast lotus petals, the petals are covered with hollow holes, and there is a small movable cover in the center. A crane stood in the middle of the petals, flapping its wings with its head held high, and from a distance, its toes seemed to break through the showcase in minutes.

2. Bronze statue of "Fuhao" in Shang Wuding period.

1976 Unearthed from Fu Hao's Tomb in Yinxu, Anyang, Henan Province. There is a profound implication behind such an extreme shape. In the ancient west, the owl was regarded as a symbol of wisdom and Athena's favorite bird.

However, in China, owls are regarded as the god of war. After casting, eight patterns, such as gluttonous pattern, Yun Leiwen pattern and feather pattern, are attached, which are independent and intertwined with each other, and become the favorite of emperors and generals, showing the innovation and exquisiteness of commercial culture.

3. Dushan Fang Ling Din

1974 was unearthed in the ruins of Zhengzhou Mall in Henan Province. Ling Du Fang Ding is the earliest bronze heavyweight with the largest volume, the most complete casting and the most complete preservation. Before 1974, archaeologists could only regard Zhengzhou Mall as an ordinary early Shang Dynasty city site.

However, it is precisely because of the discovery of Fang Ding in Ling Du that the archaeological community has a further understanding of the ruins of the mall, and thus it is determined that Zhengzhou Mall is the largest and earliest imperial capital in the early Shang Dynasty discovered in China so far, with its neat layout and magnificent momentum, which is an irreplaceable milestone in the history of China's urban development.
