Extended data
Greek mythology, which occupies an important position in Europe, is a collection of human wisdom, art, philosophy and religion accumulated during the primitive civilization period in Europe, and also laid a rich foundation for the future development of culture, art and philosophy in Europe. Greek mythology is also the earliest literary form in Europe, which has been circulating since the eighth century BC.
According to archaeological findings, the Scythians and Persians in the Western Regions were all influenced by some Greek myths, and these peoples only began to have more contact with us after the opening of the Silk Road in the Han Dynasty. Especially the Han Dynasty had a very effective political, economic and military influence in the Western Regions, so these ethnic groups in the Western Regions brought their beliefs and cultures to China.
Especially the Scythians, who especially worshipped the Greek god of war. Many archaeologists have unearthed related paintings and statues. They influenced the Huns, and among the spoils after the defeat of the Huns in the Western Han Dynasty were Jin people. At this time, there were no statues of figures in Buddhism, so archaeologists thought that the Jin people in the western regions at this time were actually statues of Zeus, the Greek god of war.
At the same time, various handicrafts appeared on the Silk Road, many of which were similar to various mythological shapes in Greece, Rome and Egypt, including winged monsters, which were common themes in Greek mythology. At the same time, Greek culture also influenced North India and entered China after Zhang Qian communicated with the Silk Road in the Han Dynasty.
After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Greek myths have disappeared in the local area, and most of them are preserved in the cultural relics of western countries and the Silk Road in the form of figures, landscapes and other paintings. Painting and sculpture influenced the Chandra style in northern India. For example, many murals in Buddhist grottoes in the western regions have a style similar to that of Greek paintings, but the content is already praising the pure land of Buddhism. ?
According to "The Biography of the Western Regions in the Later Han Dynasty", in the ninth year of Yongyuan, Ban Chao was stationed, and Gan Ying was sent to Daqin. Arrive at the branch. The boatman in the western frontier wanted to spend the rest of his life by the sea. He said to Britain, "The sea is vast." The beauty of the sea makes people yearn for the land, and there are many dead people ... English is the only way to stop. "?
What story is this historical material telling? In the 9th year of the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 97), Ban Chao, a famous minister of the Eastern Han Dynasty, made great achievements in the Western Regions. In order to further strengthen cooperation with the western regions, Ban Chao sent Gan Ying to Daqin (known as the Roman Empire in Chinese).
Gan Ying went all the way west to Zhi Zhi, trying to cross the sea. Now there are two opinions about where this "branch" is: the first refers to the rest empire along the Persian Gulf (also known as the Parthian Empire), which is located in present-day Iran; The second view is that it refers to the Seleucid Empire along the Mediterranean coast.
In a word, this branch is a place near the sea. After Gan Ying arrived here, he wanted to cross the sea further and reach the Roman Empire.
But this sailor from the western border of the Rest Empire told Gan Ying: "The sea is very big, and there is something in the sea that makes people homesick. I don't want to leave when I see that thing. Many people died in the sea. " Hearing this, Gan Ying was too scared to go any further and obediently returned to the Central Plains.
This mysterious thing that scared Gan Ying back is probably the siren (that is, Sai Ren) that people living at sea are very familiar with. In Greek mythology, Sai Ren is a monster who is half man and half bird. They are good at singing and always confuse sailors with charming and beautiful songs. When the sailors heard this song, they were so intoxicated that they stopped the boat and stayed there to listen until they died.
I don't know Sai Ren, but you know Starbucks, right? The beauty on the Starbucks logo is Sai Ren. Spending at Starbucks is equivalent to being tempted by Sai Ren!
As a person who has never seen the sea, the myth of the siren left a deep psychological shadow on Gan Ying. Sai Ren's story is also the first contact between China people and ancient Greek mythology. Opened the door for Greek fairy tales to enter China.
