There are still divergent opinions on topics related to Sanxingdui. Some people say it came from West Asia, some say it came from Egypt, and many experts even say it came from an alien civilization. Don’t blame everyone for being wildly imaginative, because it is indeed difficult to find descriptions of the ancient Shu civilization in the existing history books. Everyone makes speculations based on their own understanding and sums up based on the knowledge they have learned, but they are not afraid to draw conclusions. ?
A survey of the world geography of Dayu in ancient times
You can find an ancient book that is inextricably linked to Sanxingdui, which is the "Book of Mountains and Seas". What is currently known is that Sanxingdui The period when civilization existed was the Five Emperors period of the Central Plains culture, which belonged to the ancient period. There are not many historical records in ancient times. For example, the Huangdi's magnificent life is only a dozen lines in the historical records. The famous Battle of Zhulu is only a few words in Tai Shigong's pen: Battle with Chi You in Zhulu. In the wild, the birds killed Chiyou. ?
It is normal for a civilization like Sanxingdui, which has an extremely exaggerated style and is very different from today's human beings, not to be recorded in the history books of later generations. Regarding the historical records of Sanxingdui, it is not entirely true that there are no records at all. Veterans may wish to make a bold verification. ?
This unique book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is said to have been written during the period of Dayu's flood control. According to this historical timeline, it can be speculated that Dayu's flood control and Sanxingdui civilization were roughly in the same historical period. . ?
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is said to be some of the content recorded by Dayu in "The Benji of Dayu". However, the content of the original ancient book cannot be verified. You might as well boldly imagine that maybe the original manuscript of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" was ” is a “Geographical Survey Report” produced by Yu the Great when he needed to survey the terrain in order to control floods. Now it looks like a mythical “Geography of the Ancient World”. ?
The "Benji of Yu" says that there is a "Benji of Yu" in ancient times, which contains a lot of content about Dayu, and is often accompanied by magical and absurd stories. It is not easy to obtain first-hand information in ancient books. Most of them are oral records, and there is no way to verify whether they are real history. They can only be excerpted and connected into chapters, with slight modifications in writing. The content remains the same as before, so as to maintain the original appearance of the ancient text. Because the "Benji of Yu" has not been handed down for a long time, the book compiled by later generations is called "The Benji of Dayu". ?
The "Benji of Dayu" also said that after Dayu controlled the flood, he traveled to the Five Mountains and patrolled the four seas. Everywhere he went, he summoned the local gods and asked about the direction of the local mountains. Minerals, types of birds, animals and insects, as well as folk customs in the wilds, different countries and regions, and land distances were recorded in the "Book of Mountains and Seas". This is the origin of the eighteen scriptures we are reading now. ?
What is the connection between "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and Sanxingdui? You might as well use the stupidest method, search according to the pictures, compare them, and then make relevant speculations to find what is reasonable and reasonable, and form new bold guesses. ?
The birds in Sanxingdui and the Ba people in the Classic of Mountains and Seas
It is recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that there is a Ba country in the southwest. Dachao gave birth to Xianniao, Xianniao gave birth to Chengli, Chengli gave birth to Houzhao, and Houzhao was the beginning of Ba people. Most people can understand what this passage means. ?
If understood literally, it means that Da Chao in the ancient Shu Kingdom in the southwest was the ancestral leader of the Ba people. The literal translation into vernacular is: There is a country of Ba in the southwest. Dahao begat Xianniao, Xianniao begat Chengli, Chengli begat Houzhao, and Houzhao was the ancestor of the Ba people. ?
According to the records of "Book of Songs and Shang Ode to Xuanniu", Dahao is the emperor Jun Fuxi, Xianniao is the son of Dahao, Xianniao is Xuanniao, also called Qianniao. In short, it can definitely be a bird. identity. Xuanniao followed his father's request and opened up territory in Shangqiu, becoming the ancestor of the Yin merchants. ?
According to this record, it is speculated that Xuanniiao’s grandson Houzhao is the ancestor of the Ba people, and the descendants of the Ba people are the descendants of Xuanniiao. Perhaps, as the third generation of black birds, the humans produced will have major changes in their genes. Judging from today's science, it is very possible that if it is a genetic mutation or genetic mutation, there will be a huge difference in appearance. ?
How did Hou Zhao, the grandson of Xuanniao, travel from his grandfather’s land of Yin and Shang to the country of Ba to become the ancestor of ancient Shu? We haven’t found any documentary records yet, so we won’t care about it for now. That's all. In short, what can be tested in writing is that the descendants of Ba people are the descendants of Xuanniao, and they belong to birds. ?
Birds can be seen everywhere in the cultural relics unearthed in Sanxingdui. This is the connection between "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and Sanxingdui. It is speculated that it starts with birds. ?
First look at the big bronze bird head in Sanxingdui. This posture is so majestic and majestic. It is comparable to the bird tyrants in real life today, and it feels very familiar. Let’s look at this Sanxingdui bronze chicken decorated with fire patterns. Experts compared their cute pet chickens to guess what kind of celestial chicken or divine chicken it is. By the way, they also researched this Sanxingdui bronze bird with exquisite workmanship and lifelike shape. . ?
Focus on the human-faced bird-body statue in Sanxingdui. It looks exactly like Jumang, the god of spring in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. It may be the original shape of Jumang. "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" records: Dongfang Jumang has a bird body and a human face, riding two dragons. It means that the Eastern Jumang God has the body of a bird, the face of a human, and rides on two dragons.
It is said that the original version of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" was equipped with a large number of illustrations. Unfortunately, they were all lost later. The portrait of Jumang that can be found now was added by later generations of the Ming Dynasty. Although it is not Original version, still faithful to the written description. ?
Jumang is Fuxi’s assistant god, responsible for things like spring, budding trees, and the growth of all things. Jumang has fair skin, a square face, is dressed in green clothes, and has a pair of wings on his back. This shape is really beautiful, and the color and shape give people a vibrant spring beauty. In ancient times, at the beginning of spring, people would wear green clothes and green headscarves on their heads in order to worship Jumang, the god of spring. ?
Comparing the characteristics of the human-faced bird-body shape and looking at the spring god Jumang in the "Shan Hai Jing", the Sanxingdui human-faced bird-body statue may have been enshrined by the ancient Shu people when they worshiped the spring god. Jumang statue. ?
It is difficult to establish evidence alone, and there is also the possibility of coincidence. Of course, we cannot make a categorical conclusion from this. We still need to look for more places where Sanxingdui and the Classic of Mountains and Seas are related. ?
Sanxingdui Bronze Sacred Tree? The Abode of the Ten Suns
This exquisitely crafted Sanxingdui Bronze Sacred Tree is related to the Fusang tree in the "Shan Hai Jing". They are similar in appearance and spirit, and maybe they really are the same Titan tree.
It is recorded in the "Shan Hai Jing Hai Dong Jing": There is a hibiscus on the Tang Valley, and I bathed in it for ten days, in the north of Heijia. Living in the water, there is a big tree. It lives on the lower branch for nine days and on the upper branch for one day. It means that in ancient times, somewhere far away from the East China Sea, there was a huge sacred tree called Fusang, which was the home of ten suns. Nine suns lived on the branches below, and one sun lived on the branches above. .
The division of labor among the ten suns is clear. The "Shan Hai Jing Da Huang Dong Jing" records: There are support trees on the Tang Valley, one saying the direction is coming, the other saying the direction is coming, both are recorded in the black. This passage may be a bit confusing to understand, but veterans can definitely figure it out. It means that where the sun rises outside the East China Sea, there is the sacred tree Fusang, which is the tree where the ten suns live. When one sun returns to the hibiscus tree, another sun will come out of the hibiscus tree. The suns are all carried by the golden crow. ?
Whose children are these ten suns? The big, bright sun is carried by birds. It feels like the life is really comfortable and luxurious, which makes people have endless associations and yearnings. Who doesn’t want to be carried by a bird to play or go to work? "Taiping Yulan" records: In the country of Xihe, there was a woman named Xihe, the wife of Emperor Jun, who was ten days old. Old friends know the origin of the ten suns. Xi and Di Jun were born as husband and wife. ?
At this time, everyone will think of Hou Yi shooting the sun, and everything can be understood logically. A sun can only work in one shift every ten days, and there is a golden crow as a driver. So for the other nine days, you have to spend the other nine days in the hibiscus tree playing mahjong, darts, or bungee jumping. Anyway, there is no written record. The sun We can use our mobile phones. If we really had mobile phones and games, perhaps Hou Yi would not shoot the sun later. For the other nine days, we could stay at the hibiscus tree and entertain ourselves. ?
With the driver of the Golden Crow Bird, and nine days of free time, there was no mobile phone to refresh the screen or play games. I guess one day, the boredom finally became unbearable, and the nine people were on their rest days. The Suns just wanted to go out and stroll on the street together, but Hou Yi killed nine of them. Now it seems easier to understand the previous story. ?
Now, let’s take a look at the Sanxingdui Bronze Sacred Tree. The tree is four meters high and has nine branches. The branches hang down, forming a beautiful curved arc. At the top of the arc stands a beautiful bird, with its head held high and its wings spread, ready to take off. It is like a golden crow bird driver on a hibiscus tree waiting to carry the sun, dedicated and ready to go at any time. Why is the little bird on the top of the tree missing? It must have gone out to work carrying the sun on its back. ?
If we speculate based on this comparison, with so many coincidences and similar scenes, it is really hard to say whether there really were ten suns in the sky in ancient times. If the stories in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" are all fabricated by later generations, how could the ancient Shu Kingdom, which did not even have written texts in ancient times, know about the spring god Jumang and the sacred tree Fusang. ?
The Zhulong, a mythical beast from the Classic of Mountains and Seas
Experts even found a mythical beast, the Zhulong, described in the "Book of Mountains and Seas" among Sanxingdui cultural relics. There are several versions of the Sanxingdui Zongmu Mask. Some experts believe that the Sanxingdui Zongmu Mask should be made from the mythical beast Zhulong in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". The candle dragon is thousands of miles long. When it opens its eyes, it is day, when it closes, it is night. When it exhales, it is summer. When it inhales, it is winter. It does not eat, sleep or rest. It can call the wind and rain. . ?
The appearance and characteristics of the mythical beast Zhulong are described in the Great Wilderness Northern Classic of Mountains and Seas: It has a human face and a snake body, with straight eyes and straight eyes. It is dark in silence, its vision is bright, and it does not eat. Sleepless and restless, the wind and rain are just a sigh of relief. It is Zhu Jiuyin, it is Zhu Long.
Experts believe that the Zhulong should be what appears on the Sanxingdui Zongmu mask. In fact, when non-professional veterans saw the Sanxingdui Zongmu mask, their first reaction was that they are clairvoyant. The eyes are so long that they look like telescopes. Clairvoyance is a kind of supernatural power, not the original body. modeling. I still believe that the analysis of experts is more objective. The Sanxingdui Zongmu mask should actually be the image of the mythical beast Zhulong, rather than a magical function.
?
Judging from the Sanxingdui cultural relics, it is very likely that a large number of myths and various rare birds and animals described in the "Shan Hai Jing" once actually existed. "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" also proves the inextricable connection between Sanxingdui culture and ancient civilization. Later generations regard "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" as a god. The reason is that the things recorded in the book cannot be found in the real world. The best explanation is to regard it as myth. ?
The "Book of Mountains and Seas" also records many mountains. Species may change over time, but mountains should not change much within thousands of years, even if they are large. There is no way to achieve earth-shaking changes in the landscape in a short period of time, even if it takes thousands of years to move mountains and reclaim the sea on a large scale. However, many of the mountains described in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" have no corresponding mountains in today's China. This also makes people feel that they are geographical landforms in myths. ?
As the saying goes, the world changes when your thinking changes. If you look at it not just domestically, but from a global perspective, you will find that "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is like a "World Geography". The five major series of mountain ranges in the southeast, northwest, southeast, and northwest described in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. If you expand it and look at it, some places are like Sanxingdui, and they can be compared to each other more or less. ?
A record that has almost faded? Measuring the Dongshan Jing on foot
Who wrote the "Jing of Mountains and Seas" released earlier? How many experts guessed the connection between ancient civilizations correctly? In "The Answer", it is mentioned that a woman named Henriette Metz published the monograph "Almost Faded Records-Two Ancient Documents About the Chinese Expedition to America".
The first part of "Almost Faded Records" is about the spread of foreign culture, and the plant hibiscus is different from our common understanding. She is talking about Mexico and corn. . The other part talks about the relevant content in the three chapters of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas": "Dongshan Jing", "Overseas Eastern Jing", and "Great Wilderness Eastern Jing".
Ms. Metz believes that "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is an investigation report from the period of Emperor Yu and has a very ancient history. However, she has not read the complete "Classic of Mountains and Seas" because no one has done a complete English translation of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". Perhaps she loves to study "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and should work more in this area, at least produce an Regarding the translation fees, I guess there are many young students at school who are willing to complete the full text translation in their spare time.
Just reading the Chinese version of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" can make people feel like they are reading an ancient encyclopedia. If the full text of the Ten Classics is translated into English, it is estimated that many people will have their imaginations opened. , generate more related research, and perhaps more reference materials for the creation of literary works. What is recorded above is that there are many geography, products, animals and plants that are not found on the earth now, and even humans are different from today. .
Ms. Metz used the stupidest method and strictly followed the guidelines in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" to make a down-to-earth measurement. The book says that walking three hundred miles east means walking three hundred miles east, and then see if anything matches what is described in the book, and finally get a set of highly similar data. ?
Among the four series of mountain ranges recorded in the "Dongshan Jing" of Shan Hai Jing, the first series has twelve mountains, the second series has seventeen mountains, the third series has nine mountains, and the fourth series has eight mountains. Mountain, Ms. Metz found them all. This journey is more than 6,000 miles per day, and the overall error is less than 2%. ?
No one knows what method the legendary Dayu used to measure, whether it was a supernatural power or an artifact. Anyway, the error recorded by Ms. Metz was only one percent, which seemed too close. Not only do the mountains and rivers echo the records in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", but even the animals can match the numbers. ?
A small animal recorded in the "Dongshan Jing": It looks like a toad with a bird's beak, an owl's eyes and a snake's tail. It sleeps when it sees people. It is called an armadillo. This means that this animal looks like a rabbit, has a beak like a bird, eyes like an owl, and a tail like a snake. It pretends to be dead when it sees people. It sounds so cute, pretending to be dead to protect yourself. ?
The small animal armadillo recorded in "The Book of Mountains and Seas" is surprisingly similar to an endangered species in North America. It has rabbit ears, a pointed beak, small round eyes, a long tail, and even its habits are different. Same. This small animal in North America, the armadillo, will curl up into a ball and pretend to be dead when encountering an enemy. These details are clearly recorded in the book. ?
The real-life small animal armadillo lives in Central and South America and the southern part of the United States. Dayu who wrote "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" was thousands of miles away. If Dayu had not been to the Americas, he would have been How do we know about little things like armadillos? Could it be a coincidence of species, or maybe armadillos crossed the ocean and went to the Americas to thrive. ?
Check the world map again and check the internal organs
Various indications indicate that Dayu, who wrote "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", or earlier ancestors, were likely to do this in the Americas They have conducted field surveys, and the places they have surveyed are probably not only North America, but maybe even more remote places and wider areas. Because there is a summary at the end of the Shan Jing in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". ?
Yu said: There are 5,370 famous mountains in the world, 64,560 miles apart, and the place where they live is called Five Zang. Therefore, these five Shan Sutras, namely Nan Shan Sutra, Xi Shan Sutra, Bei Shan Sutra, Dong Shan Sutra and Zhong Shan Sutra, are also called Wuzang Shan Sutra.
Recently, more and more scholars believe that the five treasures explored by Dayu are likely to be the five treasures of the earth. Does the earth have five internal organs? The earth, like humans, has internal organs. Look at the map and compare. ?
First look at the map of Antarctica and compare it with the human brain. Have you noticed that Antarctica looks like the shape of a brain? The five internal organs of the human body are the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys, and the one closest to the brain is the heart. Find the continent closest to Antarctica, Australia. Is the map of Australia like a heart? Let the veterans do their own research. It is said that people with different IQs see different similar shapes. Now it is up to the veterans to judge for themselves whether it looks like a heart. ?
The brain is there, the heart is there, and on both sides of the heart are the lungs. Find where are the lungs, Africa and South America. The scientific community has always wondered why South America and Africa are so similar, as they are far apart and have never been connected. We can try to come up with an explanation. The two continents may have the same organ, which is the symmetrical lungs. ?
Below the lungs is the liver. To the north of Africa is the Eurasian continent. Is the Eurasian continental plate really similar to the liver? Come and see for yourselves, veterans, is it really like the liver? . Regardless of whether they look similar or not, the people living here are indeed sincere and sincere, which makes people’s minds wander twice. ?
Continue to look at the map. Is the South Asian subcontinent the gallbladder under the liver? The Ural Mountains in the middle is a ligament that divides the left and right stem leaves and fixes the liver together. Across the sea from Eurasia is North America. On the other side of the liver is the spleen, so the North American continent corresponds to the spleen. Greenland, next to North America, is the kidney of the earth. ?
How amazing, the world map is actually a map of the earth’s internal organs. If the four series of mountains described in Dongshan Jing have really been found in North America by Ms. Metz, then can they be found in other places on the earth as well? If they can all be found around the world, it will be confirmed that "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is not a myth, but a real ancient history book. ?
If we speculate accordingly, the ancient stories recorded in the book, such as Nuwa's creation of man, Kuafu's pursuit of the sun, and Jingwei's reclamation of the sea, may not be myths, but real history. When Dayu was controlling the floods, he probably visited all the places on the earth, including five continents and four oceans. ?
Some veterans may ask, how did Dayu do it? No one knows the answer, so let’s slowly study and speculate together. There are many things in the world, and the process cannot be guessed, but you can see some results and some clues left behind.
The mountains corresponding to the Dongshan Meridian were found by Ms. Metz in North America. Perhaps one day, a scholar in Europe can also find some mountains in the Xishan Meridian, or maybe in some corner of the world, There will also be some species that have been sleeping for a long time, and will one day reappear, and the mystery will be revealed, just like the bronze sacred tree in Sanxingdui, which can sleep for thousands of years and wake up to shock the world. ?
Fellow veterans, if you have more bizarre speculations, remember to share them in the comment area. Next time you write an article, maybe your opinions will be written down as key points.
