Jade Artifacts Unearthed from Ancient Corpse
Jade artifacts unearthed from ancient corpses are of great significance in archaeological research. From the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Han Dynasty, people believed that sealing the nine orifices of the dead with jade articles could make the corpse immortal. Therefore, many jade articles were unearthed in ancient tombs. Some of these jade articles were used by ancient corpses to stuff their mouths or anus. They were not suitable for wearing and playing. For example, in the highest grade cemetery of Liangzhu culture, Fanshan Cemetery, more than 1200 pieces of cultural relics such as jade articles, pottery, stone tools, and lacquer cups inlaid with jade were unearthed from 11 tombs, of which more than 90% were jade articles. The jade cong king unearthed here was of the best quality and had the most exquisite carving skills. It weighed 6.5 kilograms, and eight complete patterns of gods and beasts were carved on its straight groove. The faces and hats of the gods, the big eyes, nose, and mouth of the divine beasts were carved with shallow embossed techniques, and the upper limbs of the gods and the lower limbs of the divine beasts were carved with Yin lines. It was extremely complicated and was an outstanding work of micro-carving in Liangzhu. Another example was the jade, jade pillow, jade mask, jade Huang, etc. unearthed from Tomb M11 of the Han Dynasty Tombs in Tiecha Mountain. Among them, the jade mask was made of very thin jade pieces, which were carved into a certain shape and decorated on silk and other fabrics to form the plane outline and five senses of the head. The whole thing looked like a mask. The jade pillow was inlaid with jade wood pillow, which was more precious. A large tomb of the Zhou Dynasty was found in Hancheng, Shaanxi Province.

Exquisite Jade Artifacts of the Qin and Han Dynasties
The exquisite jade ware of the Qin and Han Dynasties had many characteristics. In terms of material, Hetian jade was a common material. Its texture was delicate and warm, and it felt comfortable to the touch. It was suitable for carving and polishing. In terms of craftsmanship, compared to the exquisitely carved jade carvings of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Qin and Han jade carvings tended to be bold and unconstrained in artistic style. The hidden areas of Han jade were often carved with hair-thin Yin lines, which were strong and powerful to make up for the weakness of the three-dimensional sense. This technique had a profound impact on the jade of later generations. For example, the Jade Cicada Saber Technique of the Han Dynasty was simple, rough and powerful, and its blade was sharp. It was commonly known as the Eight Blades of the Han Dynasty. The head of the Jade Cicada had a flat head and a small round head. There was an elephant trunk on the top of the head, and a horizontal line on the abdomen to indicate the retreat of the cicada. The ends of the two wings were sharp, and the sharp edge pressed against the hand. The edges of the Jade Cicada were relatively thin on both sides. He had made great progress in modeling, polishing, and embedding. The hollowing technique was widely used, and the composition broke the symmetrical pattern. He successfully used the law of equilibrium to obtain a flexible effect and boldly applied the S-shaped structure. Judging from the meaning of the patterns, the jade articles of that time were most eye-catching in various forms of strange beasts. These strange beasts were endowed with supernatural characteristics and had a strong aura. In terms of color characteristics, there were roots (the surface of the ancient jade showed red, yellow and other fine threads. This type of ancient jade had a history of more than two thousand years), color (the surface of the ancient jade showed uneven colors such as green and black. This type of ancient jade was from the Qin and Han Dynasties), and so on. From a historical and cultural perspective, after Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, he used Heshi Bi as the emperor's seal. Moreover, the embodiment of jade and royal power in the Qin and Han Dynasties was mainly reflected in the regulations on the official seal materials. In addition, Qin and Han jade also reflected the rich content of social customs at that time. For example, the Qin and Han Dynasty jade bottle with Kui phoenix pattern, white jade with brown spots, is the representative of exquisite jade of this period, now in the collection of the Palace Museum in Beijing. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
