Ancient China Cultural Relics
The English term for China ancient relics was "Chinese ancient relics" or "Chinese antiques." When translating the names of cultural relics in the museum, it was necessary to pay attention to the differences in naming methods between English and Chinese. English paid attention to rigorous grammar structure and word order. Chinese cultural relic names usually placed the attribute qualifier in front and the keyword at the end. English was used to placing the emphasis in front and the qualifier at the back. For example,"Zhou Feng Guo Yun-Guo State History and Culture Exhibition" could be translated as "The culture and History of the Guo State","Guo Zhong Bronze XU with characters 'Guo Zhong', XU, a bronze vessel used for holding food", etc. In addition, for some of the unique terms related to the system in Chinese history, such as the Tu Ming Shi, Feng Bang Jian Guo (Zuo Tu Ming Shi was a patriarchal clan system that observed the lineal primogenitude system in ancient China.Feng Bang Jian Guo means that emperor divided his heroes to other brothers except his capital of kingdom.)

Diancui ancient cultural relics
Pointing jade was a traditional craft that used kingfisher feathers for decoration. It was reflected in many ancient artifacts. From the perspective of historical development, the "collection of feather jade" in Han Feizi's "Foreign Reserve Shuo Zuo" during the Warring States Period may be an early record of the decoration of jade. The relatively confirmed use of "knotting beads and paving jade" as a jewelry craft was in the Song and Yuan Dynasties. By the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the word "jade" had a clear meaning-point jade, and became an important feature of gold and silver jewelry in the Qing Dynasty. Among the existing ancient artifacts, there was a crown of Empress Xiaojing of the Ming Dynasty inlaid with pearls and precious stones, golden dragon and phoenix, which was collected by the Palace Museum. There was also a six-dragon and three-phoenix crown unearthed in the Ming Dingling Tomb. It was the funerary object of Empress Xiaoduan of Wanli. There were three phoenixes made of Diancui in the middle. There were also some cultural relics left in the Qing Dynasty, such as silver-plated jade beaded tassels, silver-plated jade butterfly hairpins, etc. However, there was cruelty behind the jadeite craftsmanship. Because only the back feathers of the kingfisher were the brightest and suitable for decoration, in order to maintain the color, there were cases where the feathers were plucked when the kingfisher was alive, which caused the kingfisher to be on the verge of extinction. At the same time, some cultural relics were also facing the situation of being lost overseas. For example, a crown of verdant phoenix appeared in the National Museum of Wales. Now, the cultural relic restorers of the Palace Museum were reinforcing and maintaining the collection of Diancui cultural relics. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

There was also the Warring States and Wei's "Gongtun Red Gold" round coin, which was cast in the middle and late stages of Wei. Although Wei mainly circulated cloth coins, this round coin had extraordinary significance.
