The Bronze Lord is the most common and basic wine ceremonial vessel and sacrifice vessel in the Shang Dynasty and western Zhou Bronze Ceremonial Vessel. The Confucian classic of Han etiquette before the Qin and Han dynasties, the Book of Rites and Ritual Instruments, records that "the sacrifice of the temple, the noble ones offer the knighthood, the untouchable ones offer the yao, the venerable ones raise the bow, and the lowly ones raise the horns," which shows the noble status of the knights in the ancient sacrificial vessels. In the following more than a thousand years of history, the Bronze Lord played an extremely important role. In ancient China, the reverence of the "Jingzong Temple" and "Gongzu Old" Zongmiao was related to the Dingbang Anmin, and the sacrificial vessels displayed in the Zongmiao Temple originated from the use of utensils, but they were far more valuable than those, and the sages often regarded them as their lives.
