This artifact that I want to introduce today
It is a "life-saving artifact" with a high safety factor
Both "warriors" and "knights"
Wear a helmet when you go out, and you don't suffer from safety
Three highlights, take you to know
Bronze crest with animal face pattern
01
Which one is stronger in helmet design?
July 20 last year
The movie "Fengshen Part 1: Chao Song Fengyun" was released in China
From July this year
Three thousand years of myths and stories set sail
It has been released in theaters in many French-speaking countries around the world, including France
It has attracted a large number of overseas audiences to learn about Chinese culture
△ At the roadshow site of "Fengshen" in Nanchang, director Wu Ershan officially announced the certification: "Beast Face Pattern Bronze Crown" is the inspiration for the proton group helmet in the film.
It's time to awaken the memory of the "gods" in your blood
Let's start with the "head".
△ animal face pattern
The entire helmet is in the shape of a bowler cap
The front is centered on the ridge
Decorated with a high relief animal face pattern
(The animal face pattern is a favorite theme pattern used by Shang Dynasty designers, and a large number of bronze ritual vessels, containers, weapons, chariots and horses are widely used, and the meaning of the animal face may help communicate the use of heaven, earth, man and god.) ）
The place of the beast's mouth is just right to reveal the handsome face of the soldier
At the top, there is a small round pipe for the tassels
It's almost beautiful, so is it good to use?
To avoid the following operational bugs
Like what
When I wanted to kill a back carbine, it fell
When you wear it for too long, it gets stuffy
△ Two small holes at the top are used for ventilation; The two small holes on both sides were used as threads to tie the cirth and fix it under the jaw.
These four functional holes are on the big score
The main one is "breathable, firm, I want it"
In addition, although it is bronze texture
However, the wall is only 3 mm thick
The weight is not much different from that of today's helmets
(The national standard GB811-2010 for motorcycle occupant helmets stipulates that the mass of the full helmet is not more than 1.60kg, and the mass of the half helmet is not more than 1.00kg.) ）
Such a user-friendly design
Helmets are no longer just seen as protective gear to protect the body in battle
It also takes into account the majestic and domineering visual aesthetics
Physiological comfort during use
No wonder experts have recommended it to the list
"Top Ten Treasures of Jiangxi Provincial Museum"
△ Source: Liu Yonghua's "Ancient Chinese Military Costumes", the book uses the bronze armor of the Shang Dynasty animal face pattern as the prototype, and restores the Shang Dynasty warrior uniform.
After reading the following reasons, you can't refuse

2. The hat shape is unique, the ornament is beautiful, and it is the most perfect ancient bronze in existence.
3. It has both the style of the Central Plains and a unique personality, presenting the characteristics of the bronze of the Southern Shang Dynasty.

“胄”“冑”
Who are these "twins" who are the helmets?
The editor consulted the information and found it
I haven't figured it out for so many years
The difference between the twins of "Guan" and "冑".
The reason is found: the words are not big enough!
△ "I'm not educated because the font size is not big enough"
胄 (zhòu): a hat worn by ancient warriors to protect their heads when fighting; Children and grandchildren of emperors or nobles.
"冑" (zhòu): generally refers to a helmet or battle helmet.
Difference: The lower side of 胄 is "月", and the lower side of 冑 is "冃 (mào)".
2013 "Standardized General Chinese Character List"
Only the glyph "胄" is included
Therefore, the word "冑" is basically not used now
As long as you stop looking at it as a "stomach", it's not a big problem~
In ancient times, "胄" specifically referred to the equipment used by soldiers to protect their heads and necks
It is the name given to helmets in the pre-Qin period
At the beginning of the Shang Dynasty
Bronze helmets have appeared
It can be said that it is the prototype of the modern steel helmet
However, scarcity is expensive
The bronze crown is exclusive to the king
△ Warring States Yanxia Du Tiezhou, Hebei Museum. Found in the northwest corner of Tomb No. 44 in Yanxiadu, this piece of iron is composed of 89 iron blades, which should have been woven with silk rope or leather strips.
By the Warring States period
Iron and leather cirties began to appear
Because the shape resembles the rice pot of the time, it is called "dou"
At present, the stone is only found in the mausoleum of the first emperor of Qin
△ Source: The statue of Xue Rengui drawn by the Song people in the "Illustrated History of Chinese Armor", although it is a figure of the Tang Dynasty, Xue Rengui is wearing Song armor.
