Bamboo slips, lacquered woodwork, pottery, bronzes and coins were unearthed from the Han Tomb in Yinque Mountain, among which bamboo slips are the most precious. Archaeologists have found a large number of bamboo slips in ancient tombs, including China's Four Great Art of War, Sun Tzu's Art of War, Sun Bin's Art of War, Liu Tao's Liao Weizi, Mozi's Guan Zi, Yan Zi's Spring and Autumn Annals, Xiang Goujian and Cao Yang Shiyin. In particular, Sun Tzu's The Art of War and Sun Bin's The Art of War, which have been lost for more than 700 years, were unearthed at the same time, shocking the world. The First Year of Han Yuanguang is the earliest and most complete ancient almanac discovered by China so far.
These precious bamboo slips unearthed from the Shanhan Formation in tapiscia sinensis provide extremely important documents for the study of politics, economy, military affairs, culture, philosophy, literature, phonology, bamboo slips and calendars. In the pre-Qin and early Han dynasties in China. There are more than 4,000 military books recorded in the history of China, and The Art of War, which was produced 2,500 years ago, is recognized as the best military book in the world. However, scholars have argued about its author for more than 1000 years. Sun Tzu's Art of War and Sun Bin's Art of War, which have been lost for more than 700 years, have been unearthed in Han tombs, which has solved the eternal mystery of whether Sun Tzu and Sun Bin are one person or not, and whether their art books are one or two. The unearthed Han bamboo slips became famous all over the world, shocking China and foreign countries. They are even as famous as Mawangdui and Terracotta Warriors and Horses, and are listed as one of the top ten archaeological discoveries in New China.
However, the historical facts contained in the bamboo slips of Yinque Mountain Han Tomb are different from the historical books handed down from ancient times. For example, Records of the Historian, Biographies of Sun Wu and Biographies of Wu Qi all recorded the Battle of Guiling in Qi Weiguo in detail, but there was no mention of Pang Juan at all. Thirteen years later, in the Battle of Maling, Pang Juan committed suicide and Prince Shen was captured. Sun Bin's Art of War Pang Juan claims that Sun Bin captured Pang Juan in Guilin, which obviously contradicts the historical records. Judging from the available materials, it is indeed possible that Sun Bin captured Pang Juan in Guiling rather than Maling.
Both Yinhuan Mountain and the next Golden finch Mountain are mysteries. It turns out that mountains are all red. In ancient times, it was called Chishi Mountain. When will Chishi Mountain be full of broom and Leucaena? Why are there two similar plants with different colors on two hills close at hand? Goldfinches and Leucaena flowers are spread all over half of China. Why can you see Linyi only on these two hills? Is it planted artificially or naturally?
"Plantagenet" and "Leucaena" are not only different in color (the plantagenet and Leucaena were yellow at first, then the plantagenet turned red, and the Leucaena gradually faded to white), but also different in shape (the plantagenet and Leucaena are symmetrical on the central axis from the front, and the plantagenet has a concave groove line on the central axis, but the Leucaena does not), and they all fly one by one.
What are the names of the owners of Tomb No.1 and Tomb No.2 found? Are they husband and wife, or strangers they haven't met in a hundred years? Why did the owner of Tomb No.1 use the art of war to bury him? Why did the owner of Tomb No.2 bring the bamboo slips of Guang Yuan Zhi of Han and Yuan Dynasties into the underworld? The Records of Guangyuan in Han and Yuan Dynasties is the earliest and most complete ancient almanac found in the archaeological history of China. The records of ancient almanac corrected the mistakes in books since the Catalogue of Tongzhi Jian in Song Dynasty. Does he or she have anything to do with the calendar?
Archaeological excavations at that time naturally damaged bamboo slips unearthed. It is said that the amount of damage is quite large, which is a congenital defect caused by the times, and no one can be blamed. However, a question has also been raised. Since so many bamboo slips are damaged, Sun Tzu's Art of War has only 13 short articles?
Jinque Mountain and Yinque Mountain are huge Han groups. Who is their owner? What did they leave behind for future generations? What kind of scenery should we have here in the Han Dynasty, combined with the numerous Han stone reliefs unearthed in our local area?
Who first discovered the bamboo slips of the Han tomb in Yinque Mountain? This problem was not a mystery in the first 30 years of bamboo slips, but with people's attention to bamboo slips and Han tombs, especially with the departure of some parties, the original clear historical scene became confusing.
The bottom of the two ear cups unearthed from Tomb No.1 is engraved with the word "Sima", which is relatively rough. According to the analysis of archaeologists, it should be the surname of the tomb owner, not the official title. Because according to the general habit, the official title will not be engraved on the utensils at will. However, judging from a large number of military books unearthed from tombs, it is certain that the owner of the tomb is a person who cares about the art of war or is related to the military. The words "Zhao's Ten Doors" are engraved on the shoulder of the earthenware pot unearthed from Tomb No.2, which is the owner's surname. However, according to the fact that there is a lacquered dish like the Yang family's four characters unearthed from the Western Han Tomb in Changsha, Hunan,195/kloc-0, it may also be the surname of the giver.
It is worth noting that this tomb is not too far away from the "book burning" in the thirty-fourth year of Qin Shihuang (2 13 BC), and among the funerary objects in this tomb, a number of pre-Qin classics are so concentrated that only fragments of Confucian classics are missing. Is this just an accident? What books did Qin Shihuang burn? These bamboo slips can also illustrate this problem from one side.
