A thousand-year-old mysterious relic

Answer 1

The following are some of the mysterious ancient artifacts:

** 1. China's Millennium Mysterious Cultural Relics **
1. ** Sanxing Dui Bronze Turtleback Lattice **
- This was a mysterious cultural relic unearthed from the new pit of Sanxing Dui. Its shape was unique and no similar object had been found in the world. Its front and back were bronze lattices that were interlocked from top to bottom. There was an oval jade in the middle, and four dragon heads and four locks were set at the four corners. Although it had been buried for more than 3,000 years, it was severely deformed and could not be opened. However, when it was cleaned up, it was found that there was gold foil, silk residue, and green dye on the back. These were all extremely precious materials from more than 3,000 years ago. Experts guessed that it might be the ancient divine artifact, the Book of Luo, described in the "Bamboo Book Annals" because its characteristics matched many of the descriptions in the book. However, it was not completely certain at the moment. A more standard answer could only be obtained after opening it.
2. ** Western Zhou Cloud Pattern Bronze Five-Pillar Vessel **
- Western Zhou cultural relics excavated from the construction of an airport in Anhui. It had a strange shape. Below it was a large base with five round pillars that were nearly 20 centimeters high. The entire cultural relic weighed about ten pounds. At first, archaeologists did not know its use, but later speculated that it was used to worship the gods and pray for the prosperity of the family.
3. ** Warring States Crystal Cup **
- This was a precious cultural relic unearthed from the tombs of the Warring States Period. It was made of a whole piece of natural crystal. Although it looked like an ordinary modern glass cup, it was an item from the Warring States Period. There were many mysteries about it, such as the origin of the high-purity crystal, the producer, who the owner was, and the craftsmanship. How did the crystal be polished to be so clear during the Warring States Period, how was the "core" in the cup handled, and why it was made into a cup with a shape similar to modern glass.
4. ** Golden spring-shaped cultural relic from the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng **
- Unearthed from the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng, it was wrapped with 462 sections of gold spring wrapped with silk thread on the wooden top. It had been unearthed for more than 40 years, and so far, the introduction of the Hubei Province Museum only stated that it was shaped like a spring and its use was unknown.

** 2. Mysterious cultural relic from a foreign country **
1. ** India Ashoka Iron Pillar (India Iron Pillar)**
- It was located in the southern suburbs of New Delhi, India, and had been around for more than 1500 years. This iron pillar was about 7.25 meters high, about half a meter in diameter, and weighed 6.5 tons. The magical thing was that it had not rusted after thousands of years of wind, sun, and rain. Although some scientists explained that it was because of the high phosphorus content in iron, scientists could not replicate such a non-rusting iron product, and there were local legends about its divine power.
2. ** Ancient Greek Antikythera machine **
- It was discovered in 1900 and was estimated to have been made between 150 and 100 B.C. It was stored in the National Museum of Greek Archeology. It was a simulation computer made up of many precision gears. It was very shocking to see such a thing appear on an object in the era before the Christian era. There were different opinions about its use. Some people thought it was an astronomical clock, some thought it was an object similar to a compass to guide the direction, and some thought it was a calculator.
