Archaeological achievements
2065438+On June 2, 20051day, China Academy of Social Sciences, Shanxi Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government held a press conference on the archaeological achievements of Taosi Site in Shanxi in Guoxin Office, and announced this achievement. Pingyang, the capital of Yao, is stepping out of the legendary era and becoming a faithful history. The ancient civilization of Yao and Shun is no longer a legend, and a series of evidences formed by archaeology for many years all point to the fact that Tao Temple is probably the capital of Yao.
At the press conference, Wang Wei, director of China Institute of Archaeology and chief expert of major scientific research projects in China, comprehensively introduced the major archaeological discoveries and some research results of Taosi Site in the past 37 years, especially in the recent 10 year. Wang Wei pointed out that a series of archaeological evidence chains show that the Taosi site is quite consistent with Du Yao in terms of age, geographical location, connotation, scale and level, and the degree of civilization reflected.
He Yi, a researcher at the Institute of Archaeology, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and the captain of Shanxi Task Force, pointed out that Taosi was the original "China". The earliest national society in China was not Xia Dynasty, but "Emperor Yao Bangguo", or even earlier. "The relatively complete evidence chain corresponding to archaeological and historical documents initially formed makes us believe that the site of Taosi Capital is Du Yao." He Wei said.
Wang Wei pointed out that although it is not yet time to draw a conclusion, there is no site so consistent with the historical records of Du Yao as Taosi.
