Chapter 6 Unique jade culture
Zhou Yuan shook his head and spread his hands and said, "Senior Brother Zhang personally believes that this statement is not rigorous, but is just a self-confirmation inference. The so-called conquest and fusion are just speculations. More importantly, until now, no words can be found in all the cultural relics found at the Sanxingdui site, including those exquisite bronzes, which is an extremely rare phenomenon. In his opinion, there are many aspects of the period from the origin, development, glory and weakness of the Sanxingdui culture to the final demise. For the sake of research prudence, he will not make any judgments on these for the time being to avoid misleading his views."
"This brat." Li Mengzhou cursed with a smile. Although he was laughing, his expression was filled with great relief. In the teacher's opinion, Zhang Han's research attitude is correct. As a civilization that does not truly prove the origin and basis for cultural mastery, all speculations will affect the subsequent verification direction.
After thinking for a while, Li Mengzhou continued: "You have already talked about the origin of Sanxingdui civilization. In fact, you have put forward a similar view in your article. The academic community has been arguing about this issue. In fact, in my personal opinion, Zhang Han is clear-headed. We can boldly assume it when conducting academic research, but we must not preconceive it and make even more guesses."
"Teacher, I understand this principle. Today we are just chatting, not academic discussions." Although Zhou Yuan understood that the teacher's words made sense, he also wanted to hear the teacher's own opinions.
Li Mengzhou picked up a cigarette from the coffee table, lit a cigarette with a lighter, and then said: "For the speculation of the so-called alien civilization, this point can be excluded. Research on the Sanxingdui civilization confirmed that the so-called alien civilization statement only comes from the shapes of the unearthed cultural relics, but similar shapes are strange, but there are still traces to follow. In fact, there were close patterns and shapes in the cultural relics unearthed in the pre-Qin period, which can be compared vertically."
Speaking of this, Li Mengzhou smiled again: "Besides, the so-called alien civilization is not recognized in the real academic community. This is a mainstream view, so this point can not be mentioned for the time being. But the similarities between the Sanxingdui civilization and the Sumerian civilization you mentioned just now are also the most important differences in the academic community today, especially the cultural relics unearthed in the Sanxingdui civilization, such as bronze trees, and the tree of life in the myths of the Sumerian civilization are extremely similar, which also brings the emergence of the two civilizations.
The saying of the lineage. But you should know that there were originally many relationships between civilizations in human history. Whether it was the origin of Eastern civilization or Western civilization, or the primitive civilization in Africa or the Mayan civilization in South America, the birth and origin of these civilizations were similar. If you look at all civilizations in detail, there are many commonalities. We cannot judge the relationship between the two civilizations by just a few monolithic similarities and simply classify them into the same category."
Taking a deep breath of smoke, Li Mengzhou dusted off the long ashes from the ashtray and continued: "As for the conquest and integration of the local civilization by Chinese civilization, this is only based on the inference from the region. Judging from the historical era of the Sanxingdui civilization, its upper limit history has reached the late Neolithic period, and it can be seen from the unearthed cultural relics that the metallurgical casting process of bronze and other metals has reached an extremely rare level at that time. If it is classified as China
A civilization created by civilization conquering and integrating local civilization is a very unobjective view, and it is also a subconsciously wrong judgment by some scholars. In fact, based on time inference, it is better to say that the subsequent formation of the Chinese civilization was caused by the influence of the Sanxingdui civilization? If this is the case, it is more reasonable to judge according to the statement that civilizations are migrated from the African continent in human history, and then based on geographical reasons, the route of migration from west to east."
Speaking of this, Li Mengzhou said again: "From my personal point of view, Sanxingdui civilization and Chinese civilization should have a profound origin. I infer that Sanxingdui civilization may belong to the same branch of Chinese civilization, just like two flowers blooming on a tree. Although these two flowers have different differences, they are of the same lineage."
"What do you mean?" Zhou Yuan asked curiously.
Li Mengzhou smiled and asked back, "You went there this time and basically know the unearthed cultural relics, right? You must have visited all the exhibits carefully?"
"Of course, Senior Brother Zhang took me to see it all. Although I couldn't visit it all for some reasons, I basically saw it."
"Then let me ask you, what categories are the cultural relics unearthed in Sanxingdui divided into?" Li Mengzhou continued to ask.
Zhou Yuan answered without thinking: "According to the categories of unearthed cultural relics, of course, they are divided into bronze, pottery, gold, and jade..." When he said this, Zhou Yuan suddenly stopped telling and showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
"Teacher, I understand! It's jade! It's jade culture!"
Li Mengzhou suddenly laughed: "Yes! Among all kinds of cultures, the only Eastern culture is the most different, and this difference is the unique jade culture. If you are studying history, you should know that jade culture is unique to our Chinese culture. Among the cultural relics unearthed from the Sanxingdui site, there are more than 100 jade artifacts alone. Among these more than 100 jade artifacts, objects such as jade spear and jade zhang were also unearthed, which is enough to prove the origin of the Sanxingdui civilization and the Chinese civilization."
Seeing that Zhou Yuan was thinking, as if thinking about something, Li Mengzhou smiled and said, "Zhou Yuan, it is actually too early to guess these issues. When the Sanxingdui site continues to be excavated in the future, it may be able to truly reveal the day when the historical truth can be revealed. You are still young and have enough time to wait slowly. If you are really interested in conducting in-depth research on this aspect, I can make some arrangements for you."
When Zhou Yuan heard this, he was immediately happy and remembered what Zhang Han once said to him. In fact, the teacher always wanted to study for his graduate school, and he persuaded Zhou Yuan indirectly whenever he had the opportunity.
"Thank you, teacher, I will consider it. I will definitely ask you for help when you need it." Zhou Yuan nodded with a smile.
Li Mengzhou still had a smile on his face, but his expression showed a slight disappointment. Just as he was about to say something, a "Dinner is about to start" came from behind him. Then he saw Zhang Qingyan and his wife running out of the kitchen with a smile on their dishes and calling Zhou Yuan to set up the dishes.
"Give me the car key!" After dinner, I sat at the teacher's house for a while, and said goodbye to the teacher and his wife at around nine o'clock. Zhou Yuan and Zhang Qingyan went out together. When they arrived outside, Zhang Qingyan directly reached out to Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan was slightly stunned, then smiled and handed her the key: "I originally planned to call a designated driver, but now I'm fine, but I'll save trouble."
Zhang Qingyan wrinkled his nose and said disdainfully: "If my teacher's wife hadn't said it was easy for you to drive after drinking and asked me to take you back, I wouldn't do this. By the way, after I'll drive your car home, I'll drive it home. Anyway, you, a rich man, don't lack cars."
Zhou Yuan smiled and said that there was no problem. The two of them came to the side of the car and got into the co-pilot seat. Zhang Qingyan sat directly into the driver's seat and started the car skillfully.
"Are you going to graduate soon?" Zhou Yuan asked as he watched Zhang Qingyan start the car and drive out of the community.
"It's almost time, I'm preparing my paper these days."
"What are your plans after graduation? Should you continue to study for a postgraduate degree or study abroad?" Zhou Yuan continued to ask.
Zhang Qingyan curled his lips and said, "Why is a girl who is so educated? Even if I don't care, the old Buddha at home must be in a hurry. As for going abroad, I don't have this interest. To put it bluntly abroad, it's better to stay in China."
Speaking of this, Zhang Qingyan suddenly remembered something and turned to Zhou Yuan and asked, "By the way, is your magazine still short of people? I can just mess with you after graduation."
"You come to the magazine?" Zhou Yuan said laughing and crying: "Is it good for you to stay in school if you study history? Even if you don't stay in school, you can go to your father's side to help. Why do you come to my magazine?"
"What's the good thing about my dad? Besides, I'm not studying economics and law majors. No matter how much I have, my major is enough to be able to get to your magazine. Could it be that I'll go to his company to do chores?" Zhang Qingyan gave Zhou Yuan a blank look and said angrily: "Give me a truth, will I come here to accept it?"
Speaking of this, what else can Zhou Yuan say? Besides, he knows the temper of his junior sister very well. Although Zhang Qingyan looks weak and gentle, he is actually very characterful and has a straightforward temper and more like a tomboy.
Zhou Yuan agreed indifferently, and Zhang Qingyan's mood suddenly improved a lot. He laughed and told Zhou Yuan about his arrangements for going to the magazine later.
