What jade was buried in ancient times?

In ancient times, a gentleman was better than jade. As the saying goes, "if a gentleman doesn't care, jade won't go." .

Jade is a symbol of ancient identity. Wearing jade requires grades, and ordinary people can't wear jade.

Secondly, jade is a symbol of character and virtue. The ancients used jade as a metaphor for noble virtues, and they wore jade to show their good character.

Take Qu Yuan as an example:

Qu Yuan's ancestor was the royal family of Chu, and his surname was Qu. He has both noble status and noble character. Qu Yuan likes to use jade to describe his nobility and vanilla beauty to describe himself. As can be seen from Li Sao and Nine Chapters, Qu Yuan used this metaphor extensively. From here, we can see the spiritual level of ancient nobles.

Jade culture is a profound theory, and some scholars spend their whole lives studying ancient jade culture, but they don't know its mystery. My level is limited, so I can only say it briefly. Please forgive my shortcomings.
