Many coincidences between the two great civilizations in history gave birth to bold ideas.
There have been two different voices arguing about the relationship between the two civilizations. Some people think that Chinese civilization originated from Sumerian civilization because there are too many similarities between the two cultures. Another voice denies the relationship between the two civilizations. After all, there is no direct evidence that Chinese civilization is inherited from Sumerian civilization. Let's first look at the coincidence of two civilizations.
Sumerian civilization was born between the Euphrates River and the Tigris River, so people often call it two-river basin civilization. People think that the origin of Chinese civilization is related to Sumerian civilization, because Chinese civilization appeared near the ancient Yellow River shortly after the demise of Sumerian civilization. Moreover, Sumerians used to be called blackheads because their hair was black. Obviously, Sumerians were yellow.
They also produced characters in the early days, which is what we see today as cuneiform. After that, they carried out the agricultural revolution and began to raise crops in captivity. Most importantly, they have mastered the smelting of bronze products. After that, Sumerian civilization began to develop rapidly. Are the manufacturing of tools and weapons, the progress of astronomy, and the appearance of cities and wooden buildings very similar to China's civilization?
Because of this, people boldly speculate that Sumerians were extinct because of civil strife, and whether some people moved to the Yellow River valley not far from Wan Li to avoid the war and settled down from then on. People thrive here and grow up slowly in this land of China.
Pure speculation lacks decisive basis, and Chinese civilization is very different from Sumerian civilization.
The previous speculation about the origin of Chinese civilization was bold, but it was quickly denied by people. Because China's history and culture have always been passed down, it is the only ancient civilization in the world that has never been interrupted.
Most importantly, there is no overlap between ancient Oracle Bone Inscriptions in China and cuneiform characters of pre-Sumerian civilization. Careful observation of those cuneiform characters that have survived is more similar to the letters in western languages, while Oracle Bone Inscriptions, the oldest in China, is a very vivid hieroglyph, which is more mature than Oracle Bone Inscriptions.
Many historical cultures in ancient China are recorded in relevant historical documents, such as the most mysterious ancient gods, and all kinds of major historical events are recorded and handed down in the form of words.
Especially in Shang dynasty, there are written records. If the Shang Dynasty was really a descendant of Sumerian civilization, why didn't there be a few words left in the historical materials? Moreover, the Shang Dynasty was not China's 1 dynasty, and the Xia Dynasty existed earlier than the Shang Dynasty, and it was even more impossible for the Shang Dynasty to parachute into the Yellow River basin.
The similarity between the two cultures may be just a historical coincidence, and the origin of Sumerian civilization cannot be traced back.
Sumerian civilization and Chinese civilization are precious resources in the history of human world, and Sumerian civilization is recognized as the earliest origin of human civilization in the world. As for the reason why the two are so similar, it may only be inferred as a historical coincidence. After all, everything must be based on something to be accepted.
Sumerian civilization has gradually disappeared since it was replaced. So far, apart from some sites discovered by people, only some Jewish documents have records about them.
History is not handed down because of dating, and it can be called sorrow in human history. Sumerian civilization is not the only lost civilization, which deserves the vigilance of all mankind.
The mystery of Sumerian civilization is that their origins cannot be traced back, as if they suddenly came to the two river basins. But from the exquisite funerary objects of Queen Sumer, we can find that the shipbuilding of Sumer civilization was quite developed at that time. Can it be inferred that the former Sumerians migrated from the sea to the two river basins?
No one knows how brilliant Sumerian civilization is, and people can only speculate by the only data. Surprisingly, the Sumerian civilization at that time already had a detailed galaxy map; Sound laws; Developed agriculture and handicrafts, Sumerians' creativity and their inventive spirit amazed us.
