The Buddha Tooth Relic and a large number of Liao Dynasty relics were found in the wooden pagoda in Ying County. The wooden pagoda of Ying County was built in the second year of Qing Ning of Liao Dynasty (1056 AD) and completed in the sixth year of Mingchang of Jin Dynasty (1195 AD). The Buddha Tooth Sarira and a large number of cultural relics in the pagoda were originally the treasures of the Buddha statue. On October 19, 1966, someone found a silver box containing seven treasures, 36 relics and Buddha's teeth (in total), and three folded Buddha paintings on the damaged three-story Buddhist altar of the wooden pagoda in Ying County. After analysis, it was likely that someone took advantage of the chaos to dig them out from somewhere on the pagoda and hid them here in a panic. In September 1974, signs of cultural relics being stolen were found on the chest of the main statue on the second floor of the tower. Later, the Public Security Bureau solved the case and recovered all the stolen goods. However, the silver box containing the seven treasures and the Buddha tooth relic had been smashed. Fortunately, the other treasures were not abandoned or damaged at will. After these cultural relics were discovered, they were all transferred to the provincial cultural relics department because the wooden pagoda cultural preservation office did not have the preservation conditions at that time. In addition, there were two Buddha Tooth Sariras in the pagoda, which were placed in two silver corridors that were dedicated to the Seven Treasures. According to the Buddhist scriptures, the spiritual teeth left by the Buddha would grow fine sariras in the root and tooth socket. In addition to the Buddha's tooth relic, there were 54 Ming, Qing and Republic of China inscribed boards and couplets, such as the Eight Lishi Statue under the Lotus Platform, the "Junji Divine Skill" inscribed by Zhu Di, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, and the "World Wonder" inscribed by Zhu Houzhao, Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, as well as a batch of precious cultural relics of the Liao Dynasty. Among them, the color printing of the Liao Dynasty filled the blank in the history of Chinese printing. Read more exciting novels for free
I'm not too sure about the specific question under your statement of "identifying it as a cultural relic of the Liao Kingdom". If one wanted to understand the characteristics of the cultural relics of the Liao Kingdom, the cultural relics of the Liao Kingdom had unique cultural characteristics. For example, the Liao Dynasty had its own independent language, Khitan, which might be reflected in cultural relics. The porcelain ware of the Liao Kingdom was a very important cultural relic. It was mainly made of yellow, green, white, black, brown glaze and three-colored ware. The scale, quantity and quality of the Liao three-colored ware reached its second peak after the Tang Dynasty. The white porcelain of the Liao Dynasty was very developed, and some were highly porcelain. For example, the gilded copper boots of the Liao Dynasty were engraved with dragon playing with beads on the outside of the boots. The dragon scales were clearly visible, the edges were decorated with curly grass patterns, and the bottom was decorated with lotus patterns and curly grass patterns. The shape and size of the boots were the same as the boots worn by the Khitans. The dragon playing with beads patterns might indicate that the owner was a male member of the Khitan royal family. If you want to know about the ownership of Liao cultural relics or the relevant laws and regulations, all cultural relics of the Liao Kingdom that remain in the underground, internal waters, and territorial waters of our country belong to the country. Citizens who pick up Liao cultural relics should hand them over to the country and not dispose of them privately. If they deliberately destroyed precious cultural relics protected by the Liao Kingdom and other countries, they might violate the law and face corresponding punishment. If the above is not your question, please clarify the content of the question. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

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.

Using mother-of-pearl craftsmanship, conch shells or seashells were ground into various patterns, shapes, or thin slices, which were embedded on the surface of the object.
