Compared with ordinary people hidden in the long river of history, the great achievements and extraordinary lives of the princes and generals seem to be more likely to be favored by the history books. The excavation of the Northwest Han Dynasty has opened up the daily life of hundreds of thousands of ordinary pawns for us. On January 7th, the "Quicksand Falling Jane - Gansu Unearthed Jane Cultural Relics Essence Exhibition" was launched at the Changsha Jian Mu Museum, and the inspection round guard who came out early and returned late, the fireworks that waited all night, the reclamation of tun tian year after year, and the greetings of family letters looking through the autumn water were all vividly presented through the exhibition.
The two museums collaborate to enhance cultural self-confidence
Gansu Jianmu Museum is the only provincial-level Jianmu thematic museum in China, with a collection of nearly 40,000 pieces of various types of Jianmu. As the "hometown of Han And Jane", Gansu has unearthed more than 70,000 Pieces of Jian mu from the Qin and Han dynasties from the Qin and Wei and Jin dynasties in Tianshui along the ancient Silk Road in the past hundred years, and the Qin and Han Dynasties in Tianshui, the Wuwei Han jin tombs, the Hexi Han Sai Beacons, the Yizhi and other sites, and the number of Han Jian accounts for the vast majority.
As the first thematic museum in China, the Changsha Jianmu Museum is especially famous for the more than 100,000 Wujian of the Three Kingdoms unearthed in Changsha in 1996, which not only exceeded the sum of the number of Jianmu unearthed in the national calendar years at that time, but also filled the gap in the written records of the life of China's civil society during the Three Kingdoms period, which can be called the "Treasure House of the History of the Three Kingdoms".
The exhibition of fine cultural relics unearthed in Gansu is sponsored by changsha municipal bureau of culture, tourism, radio, film and television, and co-hosted by Changsha Jianmu Museum and Gansu Jianmu Museum, and the exhibition undoubtedly opens the opportunity for exchange and cooperation between the two Jianmu thematic museums. Li Equan, director of Changsha Jianmu Museum, introduced at the opening ceremony of the exhibition: "This exhibition is the first cultural collision between the northern and southern Jianmu provinces, and also the first cooperation between the domestic Jianmu Special Museums, which can be called a grand event of fusion and collision in the Jianmu circle. ”
Zhu Jianjun, director of the Gansu Jianmu Museum, said in an interview with reporters that the exhibition jointly held by the two Special Museums of Thejian Mu allows the cultural relics hidden in the museum to be fully displayed to the public, while also carrying forward the excellent traditional Chinese culture and enhancing the self-confidence of national culture.
It is understood that this exhibition has selected five batches of 316 pieces (sets) of fine Jianmu cultural relics in the Collection of the Gansu Jianmu Museum, including juyan, shoulder water, hanging spring, Dunhuang, and Diwan, with a total of 106 first-class cultural relics, including many important cultural relics in the World of Jianmu, such as "Yuan Zhizi Fang Shu", "Jianwu Three-Year Death Pony Impeachment Certificate", "Lost Biography Album", "Laobian Messenger Crossing the Boundary Fee", etc.
Eat AA made of side plugs daily, the confirmation of the ancient Silk Road
The exhibition takes the material life of the northwest guards of the two Han Dynasties as the theme, and shows the life of the northwest guards stationed in the northwest from different angles for the public from three units: shushou, shu pawns and border plugs.
"Liang rice eight buckets ... i.e. rice three stones... Sheep two... Wine two stones...", in the exhibition area, visitors can see such a string of ordinary bills of content is recorded on the Jane Mu, which is one of the highlights of this exhibition - "Laobian Messenger Crossing the Boundary Fee".
Zhu Jianjun explained to reporters that this was a record of how many meters, how much oil was used, and how much salt was consumed by the officials who were sent to the imperial court to comfort the Shubian soldiers at that time after they arrived at the shoulder water waiting officer. So who pays for the accommodation and food for these receptions? "The AA system," Zhu Jianjun introduced, "this brief explains who receives and who pays for it." If you eat ten dollars for a meal and the receptionist has five people participating, then the five people on the reception side will share it equally, one person has two dollars. "This seemingly recorded daily chai rice oil and salt, but in fact provides a physical basis for the study of the Han people's diet composition, reception customs, labor border system, and the form of book compilation, and is an extremely rare and highly academic value of the original materials and study texts."
"These people who were sent by the imperial court to comfort the Shubian soldiers were called laobian emissaries, which also shows that the emperor of the Han Dynasty attached great importance to the four counties of Hexi." Lei Changwei, project executive of this exhibition, introduced that the Han Dynasty's control over the western border of the river enabled the smooth connection between the Central Plains and the vast western region, which broadened the vision and vision of the entire Han Dynasty and reflected the connection between the Han Dynasty and other countries at that time. Lei Changwei took the "Hanging Spring Yuankang Five-Year First Month Changluo Hou Expense Book" as an example, this brief recorded that on the thirteenth day of the first month of the fifth year of Yuankang, 384 subordinates of Changluo Marquis Changhui were ordered to send an envoy to Wusun to marry the dowry and pass through the Hanging Spring. "Some people ask how the Silk Road in ancient China came from, and these are testimonies."
The book of the ruler, the human feelings of the living individuals are cold and warm
"Why should Qiang Di complain about Yang Liu, the spring wind does not pass the jade gate!" In the northwestern border, where even the spring breeze has never reached, hundreds of thousands of soldiers are hoarding and living here. In ancient times, when transportation was inconvenient and information was stagnant, the medium of communication between friends was mostly letters. Plain and simple words often show the interaction and earnest thoughts between relatives and friends, in the private message exhibition area of this exhibition, you can explore the simple folk customs and social style of the Han Dynasty from the words that span thousands of years.
In the private letter exhibition area, there are people who write about trusting friends to buy things, and some people who ask for help from friends because of the shortage of clothes, these letters reveal the real living conditions of the officials and soldiers stationed in the west side of the Han Dynasty River, and show the warmth and coldness of the people between the living individuals in the long river of history.
The first-class cultural relics in this exhibition, the Book of Yuan Zhizi Fangshu, are the most complete and word-counted private letters among the cultural relics unearthed underground by the two Han Dynasties. The letter records a total of five events: Yuan Tuozifang bought shoes and brushes; Yuan Tuozifang greeted his subordinates or family members; Dai Luzi asked Fang for a seal; and Tuozifang bought a whip for Guo Yingwei. "This seemingly simple correspondence between friends reveals the lack of materials and the hardships of life for the soldiers of the border guards." Zhu Jianjun said.
The soldiers' food, clothing, shelter, daily work, and joys and sorrows were all displayed in front of the eyes of the world through one simple stick or one letter after another, "They live in stoicism," Lei Changwei said: "Their life is difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, they can succeed by persevering." It is only by relying on the forbearance of this side and the persistence of this side that the whole country has been able to stabilize and achieve long-term peace and stability. This allows us to glimpse the greatness of the Han nation, and the precious spiritual and cultural heritage left to us by the Han Dynasty is also reflected here. ”
