When it comes to cultural relics, everyone's first reaction must be exquisite, sense of age, value these keywords, it is true that the more valuable treasures, the more elements on its body, one is because things are rare and expensive, and the other is because of uniqueness, for example:
The water cup used by Qin Shi Huang, the cosmetics used by Empress Dowager Cixi, and the face wash that WanRong used must be regarded as valuable cultural relics now.
In simple terms, their own value is not necessarily valuable, but their uniqueness makes them valuable.
In fact, among the cultural relics unearthed by archaeology, there are also many cultural relics that people see and laugh. Say they are fake, they are indeed unearthed, say they are true, say that they are made by ancient children are possible, the following 4 typical,
If you can see it and don't laugh, then even if you lose.
First of all, the first one: "Landlord Manor Map" (Eastern Jin Dynasty)
It is hard to imagine, if it is not this quaint background color, whoever looks at it may think that this is a mural copied by a kindergarten child, with distorted facial features and random colors
Picasso, China
But to be honest, it is not a professional painter to paint, to say that it was painted by a child, it is really not impossible.
Its age is not early at all, because it is from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and its other section makes people want to laugh even more, because whether it is the tree in the painting or the person in the painting, it all gives people a feeling of rushing to work, and the whole feeling is painting and playing, and it is not regarded as a work of art at all.
But the origin of this "Landlord's Manor Map" is not small,
Because it is the oldest preserved painting in China today, it is good to be old, even if it is not well painted, it can become a cultural relic.
Piece 2: Stone Shovel (Neolithic)
The following thing, if no one introduces it, says that it is a special shape of the mobile phone case, there will be many people believe, the most eye-catching thing is that it also has two holes above it, a look is to move the camera of the mobile phone.
But in reality, it is not a mobile phone case, but an old stone shovel, which appeared in the Neolithic Age, about 5,000 years ago.
Although this stone shovel looks a little clumsy now, in the Neolithic age, it is a very important tool, because in human civilization, agricultural tools are from the most stupid beginning, are slowly improved in the future generations, until our current era of electrical appliances, the Internet era, and the era of technology.
Then there is: the cloud pattern copper five-pillar device (Western Zhou)
Guess what this thing is called? Some people will say that it is a vessel used to burn incense, others say that it is a simple decoration, but it is not, it was used as a "calendar" in ancient times.
Of course, from today's point of view, it is indeed more like a router, that is, the router that everyone will use when we use WiFi to access the Internet.
There is indeed a great deal of reality about this, so how exactly is it used to count the days? This is somewhat similar to the abacus, which is calculated on a 7-day basis, with a copper ring on top of each day, and at least 28 days a month, so five pillars are just the right number.
Look, compared to the common routers now, is it very similar?
Next is the fourth item, if you don't look at its name, you will definitely think that this is where the beer lid was picked up, but it is not, its actual name is called the silver incense box.
(Ming Dynasty)
This silver incense box is, in today's terms, a makeup box.
Below this is a very common beer lid, doesn't it look like there is no difference? In addition to the silver incense box looks a little simple, it can be seen that the imagination of the ancients is still very rich, and any object can play its role as much as possible.
It can be seen that among these cultural relics, as long as you dig carefully, there are still many interesting things, what do you think?
