Liangzhu Culture is an important ancient civilization in the Taihu Lake Basin in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. It is about 5250-4150 years ago and is famous for its developed rice farming, a large number of exquisite jade articles, and refined pottery techniques. Yesterday, "Liang Yu Ling Yu: Dialogue between God and Man - Liangzhu Civilization Exhibition" appeared in Nanjing Museum (Chaotian Palace), the essence of archaeological excavation over the years - 120 pieces (sets) jade articles of Liangzhu Civilization Period, to us It tells the ancient people created four or five thousand years ago and created the culture of shackles.
The ancients’ image of God is a high-level monopoly.
Among the many fine jade articles exhibited in this exhibition, most of the jade articles have cumbersome and complicated patterns. Jiang Weidong, director of the Application Office of the Liangzhu Site Management Committee of Hangzhou and former dean of the Liangzhu Museum, said that these jade ornaments with ornaments are just proof of the noble identity of the tomb owner, especially the image of God in the ornamentation of jade. "The image of the ancients to God is a high-level monopoly."
Why do you say that? Jiang Weidong said that they found that in the Liangzhu jade, some jade ornaments and shapes in the tombs are based on tombs. "According to the situation that has been discovered, the style of each tomb is not the same. So some people have proposed a theory, it is likely that in many high-level tombs, the last part of the jade ornament is mastered by the tomb owner." From this point of view, the monopoly of the most sophisticated technology and the image of the gods is not only reflected in the form of expression, but also in the jade craft.
In the age when there were no metal tools and machinery, the fine jade on the ancient jade appeared. In the jade articles of this exhibition, jade articles such as jade and jade dragon first-line bracelets on the outer side of the exhibition have appeared as fine hair. These patterns are sometimes used to express the hair of a man, and are sometimes used to express the mane of the body. The citizens who came to visit were amazed at the jade of the workers.
"The ancients ruled jade and we now make crafts two concepts." Jiang Weidong said, "When the ancients ruled jade, it was a process of communicating with God. It is hard to imagine that in the age when there was no metal tool and no machinery, How could the ancients be so fine, even reaching the level of micro-carving."
The goddess face represents the self-confidence of the ancients
In this exhibition, the most visible and deepest impressions of the reporters are the gods and beasts. According to Jiang Weidong, on top of this ornamentation, God is riding on a donkey and driving the beast under his seat with two hands. "In a way, the Sphinx of the Pyramid and the statues of the beasts and cows in the two rivers have something in common, representing the stage of agricultural development to civilization in that era. It is the most confident time for people. People control everything."
Jiang Weidong believes that this ornamentation is both an ancestor worship and a symbolic image of the origin of human civilization.
Liangzhuyu culture may be related to ancient civilization in Nanjing
There is a set of jade in the exhibition, which is a semi-circular jade. In the Liangzhu culture, the jade is a kind of ceremonial ornament. Whenever a religious etiquette activity is performed, the woman who is a wizard is put on it. It is often combined with a jade tube and a jade string to form a beautiful pendant. The mysterious identity of the wizard.
In fact, in the 1950s, a complete jade was unearthed from the site of the North Yinyangying tribe in Nanjing Drum Tower. At that time, the artifact was found in the tomb of a middle-aged woman. It was also identified by female archaeologists as a female-only accessory due to the part of the neck of the tomb. From the perspective of the age, the Beiyin Yangying Camp is about 1000 years earlier than the Liangzhu Civilization. According to experts, the unearthed objects of the Beiyin Yangying are close to the Takizawa culture in the Taihu Lake area, while the Takizawa culture is connected to the Liangzhu culture. Therefore, the Beiyin Yangying tribe in Nanjing may provide important cultural nourishment for the brilliant jade civilization of Liangzhu ancient country.
