Archaeology these days, because in order to protect underground cultural relics, generally do not take the initiative to carry out archaeological excavations, are basically rescue excavations. The tomb of Princess Ming, which we are going to talk about today, was discovered by accident during a reservoir construction. /kloc-in the autumn of 0/956, during the construction of Hong Men Reservoir, the tomb of Amin Dynasty was excavated in Jiangxi. After exploration by archaeologists, it was found that this was the family tomb of wangyi in Ming Dynasty. This Ming Dynasty family tomb is located in the tomb area of Ming Xianzong's son Wang. There are many Ming prisoners buried here, including Zhu Mianbing, Zhu Houxuan, Zhu Cilin, Zhu Houye and their descendants.
Among them, the most striking thing is that the second generation wangyi Zhu Houye and his two concubines were buried together. In their buried tombs, the archaeological team found a large number of precious treasures, including a large number of exquisite gold and jade, dazzling.
Against the sky? Women's products?
Among the funerary tombs of these three people, the most unearthed cultural relics are the funerary objects unearthed from the coffin of Zhu Houye's stepwife Wan, including gold ornaments such as gold pins and bracelets 122 pieces, jade articles 1 piece and crystal beads 1400 pieces. There is also an extremely rare female object in the coffin of Princess mingji, which amazed the experts present.
This female article is Jin Chai, but the shape is very strange. Is a square inch, or two or three stories high, made of gold pieces, gold thread pavilion, surrounded by trees, there are fairy deer and white cranes in the hall. Although the men and women are not as big as rice grains, they are lifelike. This production process is absolutely ingenious and exquisite, and it is absolutely rare to go against the sky!
Archaeologists said that when the Ming Dingling Mausoleum was excavated, no such cultural relics were found. Moreover, the golden crown in the coffin of Princess Wan in the Ming Dynasty is also wonderful. The gold thread is as thin as a hair, and there are countless kinds of gems, which can be compared with the golden crown of the queen of Ming Dingling.
Many people may wonder that Wang Wan, who succeeded to the throne, has the lowest status among the three tombs, but her funerary objects are the richest? Archaeologists found that Zhu Houye and Wang Hao were not here through the analysis of three epitaphs in the tomb. Forty-five years later, Wan died, and they moved to the grave and were buried with Wan.
Experts speculate that there are the most abundant funerary objects in Wan's coffin for two reasons: First, Wan's son succeeded to the throne and naturally had to be reburied for his mother; Second, the accumulation of family fortune, Wan Wan left late, and the family's wealth and money increased, so did the funerary objects.
