In addition, letters from soldiers guarding the border of the Han Dynasty were unearthed in Gansu Province. Although they could not be sent out, they also reflected the material materials of the Han Dynasty. Read more exciting novels for free
The cultural relics of the Han Dynasty were rich in content and of great significance. In terms of jade ware, the jade wall of the Han Dynasty was an important type of jade ware culture. It sprouted in the middle of the Neolith Age. After a long period of development, the status of jade became more prominent when the jade culture of the Han Dynasty was highly developed. Jade Bi could be divided into four categories and nine types according to its decorative patterns, and its functions could be divided into three categories and eleven types. Its functions included sacrifice, congratulations, betrothal gifts, gifts, contributions, treasures handed down from generation to generation, decorations, funerals, and so on. The Western Han Dynasty generally inherited the jade system of the Qin Dynasty and the Pre-Qin Dynasty and simplified it. The jade used in the ritual system was mainly Bi and Gui. The Eastern Han Dynasty inherited the system of the Western Han Dynasty. The emperor held the Gui Bi to worship heaven and earth, and used the jade Bi to betroth the queen. Judging from the cultural relics of the tombs, the tombs of the Han Dynasty in Hepu were of great significance. Among them, there were cultural relics such as the national treasure copper phoenix lamp, as well as the jade wall and copper warehouse of the Han Dynasty tomb in Huangnigang. The patterns and patterns on these cultural relics all contained specific meanings. For example, the bronze tripod was related to the social status and power of slaves. From some relics of the Han tombs in Hepu, traces of ancient beliefs such as fish and bird worship could be seen. The taotie pattern on the copper shop head also had its own unique meaning. In terms of daily necessities, the modern household style of the Pisces basin had the same style in the Han Dynasty, such as the copper washing of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the copper washing of the descendants of Jun Yi. There were counting tools like ivory, which appeared as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and was still in use in the Han Dynasty. It was used for more than 2000 years until it was replaced by the abacus in the 15th century. There were also fragments of Baqiao paper from the Western Han Dynasty, indicating that people had already begun to use paper as early as the Western Han Dynasty, about two centuries before Cai Lun made paper. In terms of metal craftsmanship, the Western Han gold monster unearthed in Shenmu County, Shaanxi Province, was made of gold and shaped like a collection of various animals. It was speculated to be the top decoration of the Xiongnu crown, representing the highest level of Xiongnu metal craftsmanship at that time. In addition, the stone carving replica of a horse stepping on a Xiongnu in front of Huo Qubing's tomb in Maoling, Shaanxi Province, is the earliest and best-preserved large-scale tomb stone carving art treasure in China, demonstrating Huo Qubing's military exploits.

The exhibition displayed four parts of cultural relics, such as pottery wells, pottery pig pen models, livestock models, cooking utensils, tableware, wine utensils, and stone portraits of the Han Dynasty, which reflected the social values, etiquette norms, aesthetic concepts, as well as the craftsmanship and life wisdom of the ancients. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

After the Qing army entered the pass, many things happened to the cultural relics. First of all, the royal family of the Qing Dynasty had accumulated a large number of cultural relics. For example, Emperor Qianlong was keen on collecting treasures, using imperial edicts to make collectors pay tribute or symbolic money to "purchase" and other means. A large number of treasures were collected in the Forbidden City. The origins of these cultural relics were complicated. Some of them were plundered from the people, and a considerable number of them were famous, highly regarded, and "prominent" treasures that were presented to the royal family. Secondly, after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, cultural relics faced the problem of loss. After the Revolution of 1911, because the "Preferential Conditions for the Qing Dynasty" did not clearly define the boundaries between "public property" and "private property", the royal family of the Qing Dynasty regarded many items in the palace as "private property of the royal family". After the last emperor, Pu Yi, abdicated, the members of the royal family and the officials stole and resold the collection of the Forbidden City. Although more than 110,000 cultural relics were transported from Rehe Palace and Shengjing Palace to Beijing's Antiquities Exhibition Center in 1913 - 1914, the acquisition of cultural relics soon stopped due to the lack of financial resources of the Republic of China government. Moreover, the Imperial Palace in Shenyanghad some unique cultural relics after the Qing Dynasty entered the pass. The Imperial Palace in Shenyang was the imperial palace of the early Qing Dynasty. It displayed the palace relics left behind by the old palace, such as Nurhachi's sword, Huang Taiji's waist knife, and antler chair. Many of them could not be seen in the Imperial Palace in Beijing. In addition, Yuanmingyuan was also an important place to store cultural relics during the Qing Dynasty. During the Daoguang period, the Ministry of Internal Affairs recorded the storage quantity of some treasures in Yuanmingyuan, such as silver, Ruyi, jade inkstone, brush washing, porcelain furnace, bottles, jars, etc., respectively in the palace and Yuanmingyuan. However, Yuanmingyuan was later destroyed by the foreign powers. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Judging from the pottery figurines of the Han Dynasty unearthed in Sichuan, Sichuan people had a higher sense of happiness. Xie Zhicheng, deputy director of the Sichuan Museum, once pointed out that the pottery figurines of the Han Dynasty unearthed in Sichuan had almost no negative expressions such as seriousness, anger or frustration, which reflected that the living standards of the people in Sichuan at that time were good, their mental state was good, and their happiness was strong. For example, the male figurine of playing the zither unearthed from the tomb of Pengshanzhaizi Mountain in Sichuan Province of the Eastern Han Dynasty was kneeling and playing the zither happily, while the gray pottery figurine of listening to the zither unearthed from the tomb of Sichuan Province of the Eastern Han Dynasty was kneeling and smiling. There were also the terracotta warriors unearthed from the cliff tomb in Leshan, Sichuan Province in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Although they were warriors, they had a smile on their faces and no sense of majesty. The terracotta warriors unearthed in other areas of the Han Dynasty mostly had dignified expressions, which was in stark contrast to the terracotta warriors unearthed in Sichuan. In addition, Sichuan also unearthed figurines such as flute figurines, sheng figurines, dance figurines, and portrait bricks depicting banquets. These pottery figurines and portrait bricks presented a prosperous scene of singing and dancing, and also reflected the colorful entertainment life of Sichuan people at that time. From the banquet portrait brick, one could see the scene of the seven people participating in the banquet. The participants sat on the ground, and there were people who urged them to drink, discuss current affairs, or gossip about the family. They seemed to be happy and at ease. The rapper figurines were also representative cultural relics of Sichuan in the Han Dynasty. The vertical rapper figurines existing in the Sichuan Museum and the sitting drumming rapper figurines allocated to the National Museum all had very funny facial expressions, reflecting the optimistic, cheerful and tolerant spiritual characteristics of Sichuan people in the Han Dynasty. These all reflected the happiness of Sichuan people at that time. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

On May 18th, the Qin and Han Museum of Shaanxi History Museum officially opened. More than 1500 cultural relics were exhibited, 90% of which were exhibited for the first time. In addition to the basic exhibition "The World Is the Same-Qin and Han Civilization Themed Exhibition", there were also "Great China-Qin and Han Civilization Themed Exhibition","City and Mausoleum" and "Skill and Beauty". Through the archaeological excavation results of Yongcheng, Yueyang, Xianyang, Chang 'an and other four major sites of Qin and Han Dynasties, the special exhibition of "City and Mausoleum" showed the site selection concept, political pattern, design idea and spiritual pursuit of the national projects of Qin and Han Dynasties, and explained the historical value and era value of historical and cultural heritage. More than 400 cultural relics were exhibited in total. Except for the seal of the star cultural relic queen, most of the items were on display for the first time. The exhibition hall's spatial organization and layout relied on the large space-time background and the inherent characteristics of the building. It was a comprehensive reflection of the landscape art, installation art, and cultural relics exhibition art. The internal space of the building was planned to be three parts: the curved ramp, the open space between the columns, and the circular platform. Due to the limited exhibition space but the grand theme structure, the exhibition hall made an "addition" in terms of space. On the one hand, it was planned to extend to the outside. For example, in the corner of the outdoor courtyard of the exhibition hall, a miniature "Shanglin Garden" was built with Maoling stone carvings, waterfowls in the mausoleum of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, and other cultural relics. In the outdoor hall of the exhibition hall, the ancient bridge piles found around the ruins of Chang 'an City of Han Dynasty were set up. At the same time, the second floor of unobstructed access was developed indoors, and the cultural relics and multi-media devices were used to reproduce the style of the ruins of Chang' an City of Han Dynasty. The entire exhibition was designed according to the map of the large ruins. The cultural relics were placed and the lighting was carefully arranged to reflect the hidden theme of "life and death". The design also integrated traditional and modern concepts, combined with historical documents and modern technology to reproduce ancient scenes in many ways, paying attention to the needs of the disabled, and adding sign language, Braille and other accessible details. The special exhibition of "Skill and Beauty" was divided into four parts: Five Colors of China, Splendor of the Edge, Dancing Shadow and Song Falling, and Fragrance in the Furnace. More than 300 cultural relics were exhibited. Different from the previous exhibition, this exhibition hall allowed the audience to embark on a wonderful journey through the ancient Qin and Han Dynasty art and technology under the stimulation of the five senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch. Its color is mainly white and gray. In addition, there was a wooden boat of the Han Dynasty in the Qin and Han Dynasties of Shaanxi Libo, which might be the treasure of the museum. The construction method of this kind of boat was first discovered locally, but it was very popular in the Mediterranean area, providing material evidence for the cultural exchange between Chang 'an and Rome. After being pieced together, the boat was 9.71 meters long and 1.98 meters wide. It was the earliest wooden boat of the Han Dynasty in the era of archaeological discovery. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
