The cover of the poem The Shadow of the Past – Photo (LHK) The poetry collection “Old Afternoon Shadows”* by Nguyen Thi Thu has 70 poems printed with moderate thickness, beautiful and simple cover, giving readers a friendly and close first impression. There are only 3 poems written by the author about relatives (father, mother and deceased brother) arranged in separate arrays, but they are 3 poems rich in emotions. The rest are love poems. Women that. Eve’s words to invite Adam to eat the forbidden fruit is a love verse of the early morning ancestors of mankind. Without mentioning the memories as often seen in the lines of crying for separation, the verses in the poem “The day of his death” are linked, confused and helpless as if it was the longing for a relative who soon left. far from the world. It is not a manly page to be able to pour a cup of wine on the grave of a short loved one like Nguyen Thong (1827-1884) did in front of his brother’s grave in the article. “Falling away from a foreign country” (Far from my grave in a foreign land) , Nguyen Thi Thu tossed in a dream, in nostalgia hoping to find her brother’s figure, but soon realized it was a hopeless search: I look in a dream I search in nostalgia Parting is forever Far away, far away. (Your anniversary) Just a glance at the titles of the remaining 67 poems, readers can imagine so many levels of love in the soul of a woman who has endured and overcome many sun and rain in the world. There is a call for a lover in Why don’t you take me home, One day I will love, Love forever, Remember to listen to me, Tell me… There are timestamps left with Sunset, Old Wharf, Sent in the past, Winter, Spring at the door, The season of flying leaves… There are flowers that hide so many memories: A few degrees of yellow flowers, You and the lotus, Wild flowers, May flowers, Bi Ngan flower love story… Nguyen Thi Thu is like a woman in a cubist painting. Many faces turned to the four directions, but the eyes opened wide and looked into their own realm. This is a young girl in love, dreaming of a flower boat by the river in the rape season. That’s the girl sitting knitting a sweater unfinished a love affair. And far away is a woman who remembers an old autumn: He said he loves wildflowers You should send your heart to the wind and clouds Autumn is so far away To lose your love in this place forever. (To send) When the eyes are on their own world, the verse will be full of mood. “The shadow of the old afternoon” is so flickering with smoke, filled with sadness and joy, like the scenes of the film overlap in succession, and then suddenly the lens-lens-inner-mind pulls into a deep perspective with waves. The lake surface spreads to the abyss. Author Nguyen Thi Thu Literary works always carry in it, at different levels, the thoughts, feelings and sometimes even the fate of the writer. Because of that, facing life, sometimes verses and poems become a bridge to share, sympathize, and connect writers with others: One day, I lost my way to the moon and stars Know someone’s arms to pick up for those who missed an appointment? Please open your heart to love the sunshine Wipe your tears then… wipe even the rain. (Path to happiness) Reading Nguyen Thi Thu’s poetry, the reader encounters the author’s lyrical ego in every private moment, every small word confiding. When revealed by lines, shapes, when flickering, ghostly. Sometimes the truth is mixed together, both familiar and strange: Is there an afternoon where I’m alone? Sitting alone looking at the trees shedding leaves The rain is falling with long drops Tell us stories like yes, no? (Doesn’t it rain in the afternoon) “Old Afternoon Shadow” anchors the reader’s feelings because of its multi-voiced, multi-step tone, showing the author’s rich linguistic ability and sensitive and flexible rhyme perception, especially in the form of poetry. five languages ​​and hexagons: Losing love is a pain If you forget, it will be too late One dimple lover Words of love follow the wind to the flying sand. (Sand flies) It is not difficult to find the shortcomings, immaturity here and there in a collection of poems, but the most noticeable is the redundancy and repetition of words in a poem, or sometimes “trending” to use strange words. If the word “lost” choose a very expensive place in the article “Possible and impossible” then the fact that there are 6 mentions of the word “peace” (pages 27, 60, 64, 78, 88, 95) makes it difficult for readers to… peace! But, above all, “Old Afternoon Shadow” and the feelings of the author are worthy for readers to share and sympathize.

One of them is the tomb of Trieu Van Vuong – the son of Trieu Trong Thuy, the grandson of Trieu Da! Discovered the tomb of Trieu Van Vuong – Trong Thuy’s son In June 1983, a worker was working on a construction site at the foot of Xianggang Mountain, Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province, when his foot fell into a pit. This pit is very deep, when colleagues shine their lights on, they only see a pitch black color like a “bottomless pit”. The other worker was lucky to be uninjured and was quickly pulled up, after which he said there were huge copper cauldrons underneath the hole. Understanding that this was an ancient tomb, the construction team quickly reported it to the Guangzhou Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau. The mausoleum is located 17m underground. Photo: 360doc. The first house is located 17m deep underground and is built of giant stone slabs. Preliminary excavation shows that the tomb has a total of 7 rooms, walls up to 12m high, on the walls there are frescoes depicting the sun and moon gods. Fortunately, this tomb has never been looted, inside there are still 10,000 cultural relics such as bronze pots, ceramics, lacquerware… The heavy heavy stone gate and 15 skeletons of people who were buried with them (concubines and servants) indicate certainly the grave of someone of the highest rank – a king. The seal revealed the identity of the South Vietnamese king Trieu Van Vuong. Photo: 360doc. Finally, the archaeological team found a seal that showed The owner of the tomb is the second king of the Trieu Dynasty of Nam Viet – Trieu Van Vuong. Trieu Van Vuong called Trieu Mat, the eldest grandson of Trieu Da, the son of Trieu Trong Thuy, who ascended the throne in 137 BC. Trieu Van Vuong’s tomb is very elaborately decorated. The king’s body lies in a 1.73 meter long jade mourning robe, made of 2291 pieces of jade, silk and linen. Jade robe is the most advanced burial costume under the Han Dynasty (contemporary with Nam Viet), only for people of noble status with superstitious belief that jade has the effect of preserving bones, keeping the body of the dead person is whole and waiting for the opportunity to be reborn. The set of jewels of Trieu Van Vuong. Photo: 360doc Trieu Van Vuong’s tomb is also buried with huge jade treasures, gold inlaid swords, bronze bells and thousands of overwhelming treasures. Currently, these relics are on display in the Emperor Zhaowen Museum in Guangzhou, China. Who is Trieu Van Vuong, son of Trong Thuy? Nam Viet was founded in 204 BC an area in Guangdong province and intersected with Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. The kingdom lasted for 93 years and in turn experienced 5 kings. Trieu Da, a former general in the military regime of Qin Shi Huang, was the founder of the kingdom. According to the “Dai Viet History of the Complete Book”, Because Trieu Trong Thuy (Trieu Da’s son, An Duong Vuong’s son-in-law) had died before his father, Trieu Mat was chosen as the successor to King Nam Viet. The Emperor Zhaowen Museum in Guangzhou City, China is the place to keep a huge treasure in the tomb of the King of South Vietnam. Photo: 360doc. In his reigning life, Trieu Van Vuong did not have too many achievements, compared to his predecessor, Trieu Da, was also considered to be lack of determination and weakness. He ruled the country of Nam Viet for 12 years, always keeping the agreement with the Han Dynasty, wanting to use justice to sympathize with the neighboring country, repel the enemy, and keep the border at peace. About Trieu Van Vuong’s mother, many people will question whether Trieu Van Vuong’s mother is Princess My Chau? There are not many documents about who Trieu Van Vuong’s mother is, but the book “Thien Nam Luc Luc” – An anonymous work written in Nom script, born around the end of the seventeenth century, records that My Chau had a son. This boy is very much loved by his grandfather, An Duong Vuong, and the king plans to pass the throne to him in the future. However, this boy was brought home by Trong Thuy when he used the excuse to visit his parents, but expressed that in case someone inherits his family line, something should happen. In this case, it is possible that Trieu Van Vuong’s mother is Princess My Chau! Let’s look at the burial items in the tomb of Trieu Van Vuong: The mausoleum owns more than 10,000 burial items.

10 days to find ancient civilizations Egypt is famous for its eternally brilliant civilization, known through movies and legends tinged with ghosts and mysteries. The photo set of Nguyen Tuan Anh’s family’s 10-day trip to Egypt to discover the country has attracted the attention of netizens with nearly 2,000 emotional expressions. In the journey to “touch” to the ancient world, the young family set foot in Cairo, Luxor, Aswan. Majestic pyramids, temples and tombs are recorded throughout the journey. These are the pyramids of Kheops, Djoser, Khan el-Khalili market, Karnak temple, Dendera, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Abu Simbel… The golden brown background evokes power, mystery is the characteristic of the architecture here. here. Thousands of years of unsolved mysteries Egypt is a special country, possessing pyramids, one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world that still exists today. Although thousands of years have passed, science and technology have made great progress, the pyramid is still a mystery to mankind. Book World Civilization History records strange human discoveries about pyramids. When the rusted coins were brought inside the pyramid after more than a month, they were shiny again. The cup of milk and fresh fruit put in it after about half a month will not change color or taste. In addition to the above strange things, people still do not have a thorough explanation why the ancient Egyptians were able to build a series of massive works with tons of stone blocks with only rudimentary tools. 3,000-year-old ‘golden city’ found in Egypt The 3,000-year-old city buried in the sand in Egypt is the most important discovery since the tomb of King Tutankhamun was unearthed.

Crosses on the wall at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in the Holy Land of Jerusalem. Until now, religious scholars believe that medieval pilgrims traveling to this sacred site carved images of crosses on the walls. But new research has shown that only a handful of people, be they masons or artisans, carved these crosses on behalf of pilgrims, who may have kept the dust from carved as a sacred keepsake. Some crosses date from the 14th or 15th centuries, hundreds of years after the Crusades in the Holy Land (1096-1291), suggesting that post-medieval pilgrims may have made the trees. Cross. “During our research, we scrutinized, analyzed every millimeter inside the crosses – their depth, their width, even the hands of the people who carved them,” said the project leader. Project Amit Re’em, Jerusalem regional archaeologist with the Israel Antiquities Authority said. The team found that it was one person, or several, responsible for making these crosses, not the hundreds and thousands of pilgrims who visited the church. Re’em got the idea for research while visiting the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. The church was built in the 4th century, when Saint Helena, mother of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great, traveled to Jerusalem, and according to legend, helped discover the place where Jesus was crucified, burial and resurrection. Constantine had a basilica built there, and it was later called the Church of the Tomb. Together with colleagues Moshe Caine and Doron Altaratz, professor and senior lecturer, in the Department of Photographic Communication at Hadassah Academic College in Jerusalem, the team used three photographic techniques to record the shape of the crosses: photogrammetry, reflectance-conversion imaging (RTI) and gigapixel imaging. For the optical measurement, the team took between 50 and 500 images of each subject, with each image at a different angle, and then used software to create a digital 3D image based on the triangulation of all The pictures. Meanwhile, with gigapixel photography, which is similar to zooming in from the whole world to a close-up street view on Google Maps, the team took multiple photos of the carved surfaces. All of these techniques help Re’em investigate the similarities and differences, including the chisel technique, of each carved cross. Furthermore, when the researchers took pictures of the crosses, they noticed inscriptions of names and dates engraved along them. “We found that the crosses were carved around the inscriptions, which means that the crosses date to or slightly later than the inscriptions,” Re’em said. After reading about the research being done in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz recently, William Purkis, a reader of medieval history at the University of Birmingham in the United Kingdom, contacted Re’em. Purkis said he shares the same thoughts with Israeli researchers on the findings that these crosses were made by only a few experts. It is possible that the pilgrims paid a stone mason or an artist to carve a cross for them in the church, and then saved the dust as a sacred keepsake, Purkis said. In the Middle Ages, pilgrims were known to carry small lead vessels filled with souvenirs of the Holy Land, such as water from the Jordan River. Two of these medieval vases are in museums – the Cleveland Museum of Art and the British Museum.

Qin Shi Huang is always looking for the way to immortality for his life, but unfortunately still can’t find a way. So he decided to build a magnificent palace underground and that is also the tomb after his death. One of the mysteries surrounding the tomb of Qin Shi Huang discovered by scientists is the extremely large amount of mercury inside. Many conjectures say that the amount of mercury in the underground palace can be up to several tons, even hundreds of tons, which is why grave thieves cannot enter. Many questions arise, what is the real function of this mercury? Is it for anti-theft as inferred? According to research on the history before the time of Qin Shi Huang, scientists did not find mercury to have much effect, and only detected a small amount of mercury in the type of mummification. The original hypothesis was that mercury could act as an anti-corrosion agent. But when discovered in the underground palace, a relatively closed insulation layer is formed due to the function of mercury. Many other opinions say that Qin Shi Huang used mercury to prevent theft. However, when returning to the history of the time when Qin Shi Huang unified China, people’s understanding of the uses and harms of mercury was not known. It wasn’t until the Han Dynasty that people began to know that mercury contained toxic substances. The river of mercury inside the tomb. The final conclusion was reached, the reason why Qin Shi Huang used a large amount of mercury in his tomb to prevent his body from rotting due to its anti-corrosion function. With the large amount of mercury in the tomb, his coffin was left in the riverbed for a long time while still remaining remarkably intact. Maybe Qin Shi Huang still holds the hope that one day in the future, he will wake up. This is even more important than theft prevention. How deep is the tomb? The most recent survey of archaeologists has shown that the underground tomb of Qin Shi Huang is 260m long from east to west and 160m wide from north to south. The total area is 41,600 m2. This is the largest mausoleum in the Qin and Han dynasties, its size is equivalent to 5 international football fields. Later archaeologists used a drill and proved that this tomb was designed vertically. Sima Thien once said, the length of this tomb is longer than 3 rivers combined. According to the book “Rites of the Han Dynasty”, the end of this tomb is immeasurable. That proves that the tomb has reached the deepest possible depth with the level of science and technology at that time. But how deep the tomb really is, no one has the exact answer. The Mystery of the Terracotta Warrior According to unofficial records, Xiang Yu – the king of the Zhou state, who overthrew the Qin empire, ended up perishing at the hands of the “Terquered Army”. He was eliminated by five cavalrymen on the banks of the Wujiang River. They were Qin soldiers from the Guanzhong region and were used as prototypes for Qin Shi Huang’s Terracotta Cavalry. Does the tomb have “9 floors of hell”? Looking down from above, you can clearly see, the pyramid is square, so the Americans call it “dwarf pyramid”. Paradoxically, the inverted pyramidal shape of the mound seems to coincide with the saying “9 floors of hell” and this is completely unique in the world. Qin Shi Huang is a freak, this mystery can only seem to be revealed by archaeological discoveries. How many entrances does the Tomb of Qin Shi Huang have? According to “History of Sima Qian”, a great history book written by Sima Qian: When the emperor died, he was taken to the tomb. After that, the main door was closed and the outer gate was also completely closed. All the craftsmen were buried with the emperor. “This proves that the tomb has three gates: the outer gate, the central gate and a secret gate. It is believed that the middle gate was locked automatically to prevent any intrusion from the inside or outside. And the three doors are placed in a straight line.”

Archaeologists survey Loong Cha cave, Chiem Hoa district. (Source: nhandan.vn) Over the past three decades, successive important archaeological discoveries have confirmed that Tuyen Quang is the land of survival of primitive people. According to Associate Professor-Dr. Trinh Nang Chung (Institute of Archeology, Vietnam Academy of Social Sciences), so far, nearly 30 stone age relics have been discovered in Tuyen Quang, along with thousands of objects. very precious thing. This is a block of historical documents in kind to help historians reconstruct the life and culture of Cistercian Tuyen Quang. The process of excavating relics and statistics, diverging based on relics shows that, typically in the late Paleolithic period, dating from about 20,000 years ago today at 2 monuments: Temple Thuong hill (District 1, district 1, Binh Duong province). Chiem Hoa) and Goc Heo relic (Ham Yen district). Archaeologists have discovered many labor tools of the ancients, mainly made of pebbles, hewn, on the steps of the Co River, Lo River, and Gam River. Associate Professor-Dr. Trinh Nang Chung emphasized, along the Lo and Gam rivers, traces of prehistoric people here are definitely still many. Primitive man always strengthen the community closely with bonds of affection and responsibility from generation to generation. The development of ancient inhabitants Tuyen Quang The ancient Vietnamese in particular and the ancient Vietnamese in general were always associated with building beautiful and great things in this homeland. From here the dawn of the nation’s history always opens up new horizons, more civilized and more brilliant. In the early Neolithic period, there is typically Phia Vai cave dating from about 10,000 years ago. The hewn tools in Phia Vai are made quite simply, bearing the traditional style of the late Paleolithic period – Son Vi type and technique. The above similarity is probably traditional, but obviously Phia Vai is not a Son Vi site. The discovery of traces of primitive times dating back 20,000 years ago marked the earliest human presence in Tuyen Quang as well as in Vietnam. It is the first pages of history that opened the way for the exploration and occupation of the lands our ancestors used to live today. On the other hand, the study of Tuyen Quang prehistory has contributed a lot to precious archeological documents and real artifacts in the study of the history of formation and development of the Vietnamese nation. Associate Professor-Dr. Nguyen Lan Cuong (Vietnam Archaeological Association) said that the earliest but most valuable relic is Phia Muon cave. This is an archaeological site in the land of Na La village, Son Phu commune, Na Hang district. Scientists have discovered cultural layers belonging to Hoa Binh culture, including finely crafted stone tools and burial tombs, dating from about 3,500-4,500 years ago. Discovered a unique set of remains in Southeast Asia According to Associate Professor-Dr. Nguyen Lan Cuong (Vietnam Archaeological Association), in 2005, for the first time, archaeologists discovered a human skeleton at Phia Vai cave. According to initial assessment, this is an intact buried remains, not a reburied skeleton, also a typical and unique set of remains in Southeast Asia. In 2006, archaeologists sawed off the top plaster sarcophagus to obtain this priceless 10,000-year-old semi-fossil skeleton. This set of remains is believed to be the remains of a woman who died in the supine position, with her knees bound, her arms stretched out. Although the skeleton has only the head intact with a high degree of fossilization, the body and hands, the shin bones are almost gone, but based on the position of the talus (a small bone connecting the ankle and heel) and The left heel bone is located close to the hip pelvis, experts conclude that this burial position is one of the familiar burial postures of cultural residents of Hoa Binh, Da But, Quynh Van… In particular, the mourning of putting sea snails in the eyes of the deceased has provided archaeologists with the evolutionary process of the human race. Besides, the skull shape of this remains is a round skull completely different from the long skull of Hoa Binh cultural residents. While the Phia Vai relic is dated to Hoa Binh culture, placing sea snails in the eyes of the dead also changes archaeologists’ opinion of the Phia Vai inhabitants compared to other ancient populations in the area. zoned by distinctive features. Associate Professor-Dr. Nguyen Lan Cuong emphasized, looking back at the ancient skulls belonging to Hoa Binh culture that have been studied such as the cashew roof, Nuoc rock roof (Thanh Hoa province), Can cave, Chim cave, and Muoi cave. Hoa Binh province) and Nguom rock roof (Thai Nguyen province), archaeologists have never encountered this case. Ancient skulls of similar age discovered in Southeast Asia also do not show how to place snails in eye sockets. It can be said that Phia Vai is an early Hoa Binh relic, however, the issue of dating Phia Vai cave site will continue to be considered. The semi-fossil animal remains found at Phia Vai show the history of humans at the transition from Canh Tan to Toan Tan in Vietnam. In addition, relics such as graves, stone relics … help us understand more about burial customs and spiritual life of prehistoric inhabitants. Associate Professor-Dr. Trinh Nang Chung said that this is also an extremely important finding in many aspects. In terms of paleontology, this is the first ancient human skeleton discovered in Tuyen Quang province. In terms of thinking and spirituality, it is possible that the people of the Hoa Binh culture period here had the idea that death means entering a “new life”, the Phia Vai woman also needs two eyes. The excavations and research works of archaeologists have returned to history many things that time has buried deep in the earth, all archaeological evidences have proven man himself in the conquest. thousands of changes of nature have sketched the first vestiges of his community.

In 527, at the time when the Eastern Roman Empire ruled Syria, soldiers discovered in an alcove there existed a lamp covered with a very sophisticated hood. According to history books, this lamp was lit in the year 57, which means that the lamp has been burning for nearly 500 years. Another lamp above the door of the temple of the sun god in Egypt is also recorded by Greek historians. The lamp does not use any fuel and still burns brightly for centuries, despite the impact of rain and wind. The oldest lamp was discovered in the 1400s, in the tomb of Pallas, son of the ancient Roman king Evandra. Thus, this lamp has so far burned brightly for more than… 2,600 years. To date, scientists have not been able to get an exact answer for that strange black chemical. In 1534, King Henry VIII’s army stormed the English synagogue, disbanding religious groups and excavating numerous graves. While digging through the grave of the Roman emperor Constantin’s father in Yorkshire, they discovered a burning lamp. This king’s father died in the year 300, which also means that the lamp was found to have a “life expectancy” of more than 1,200 years? These are just a few of the many millennial lights that do not go out. Records show that this mysterious phenomenon occurs all over the world, typically in countries and regions with ancient civilizations such as India, China, Egypt… The strange thing is that these mysterious lights are not preserved and preserved for the next life. Many researchers believe that, at that time, there were so many eternal lamps that they did not need to be preserved, so they did not have measures to preserve these “forever” finds. According to records, in fact, ancient people also thought of preserving these lamps, but strangely, shortly after being discovered, they were quickly destroyed by various causes. The scholar Saint Augustin (354-430) described an eternal lamp in the temple of Isis (Egypt). The most confusing thing is that it is located in the roofless part, despite the wind and rain. Similarly, the lamp in Edessa (Syria) burned for 500 years in extreme weather conditions. In 1300, the “special oil” theory was partly clarified, when the researcher Marcus Grecus wrote in his Liber Ignum (Book of Fire) that some eternal lamps used special fuels. It wasn’t oil but just a fine powder made from “glow worms”, but what kind of worms Marcus didn’t know and the mystery was forever buried. Marcus only said that “I looked at the wick, it was as long as my arm. A long time later, I came back and it was the same length, no one changed the wick or added more flour.” In 1401, in the grave of Pallas (son of King Evandra – Roman), people found an eternal lamp and said it had burned for 2,600 years. To put it out, according to the elders, there is only one way to break it all or pour out its “oil”. In 1450, a farmer in Padoue (Italy), while plowing his field found an earthenware vase, followed by two small metal vessels, one of gold and one of silver. In these two jars was a strange slime, half oil, half honey. Inside the terracotta vase was another terracotta vase containing an eternal lamp that was still burning. Buried underground (since when) and burned in such low oxygen conditions, it is a mystery. In 1610, researcher Ludovicius Vives claimed to have seen an eternal lamp (burning for 1,500 years) and was smashed by potters. The historian Cambden (England) in 1586 also mentioned an eternal lamp at the grave of Constantius Chlorus, father of Constantine the Great. Chlorus died in 306 in England and since then, an eternal lamp has been placed in his grave. In Spain, there was also an eternal lamp found at Cordone in 1846. Priest Evariste – Regis Huc (1813-1860) was an avid traveler in Asia and found such an immortal lamp in Tibet in 1853. The above findings prove that these mysterious lamps are not the product of Greece, Egypt or Rome alone. Chemist Brand (Hambourg – Germany) in 1669 determined that these eternal lamps burn for so long because of phosphorus. Others believe that they burn for a long time because they do not need air, on the contrary, if exposed to air they will extinguish. If this opinion is true, could the ancients know the vacuum technique? Besides, fire burns without oxygen is a very difficult thing to understand. These debates force people to turn to another mystery: the Egyptian lighting technique. On the streets of ancient Egypt, people used oil lamps and torches. Fuels are residues that are rich in fats and oils. But in the crypts dug up to 100 meters into the mountains, what light did the slaves and sculptors work with? In these catacombs, there was no trace of any lamps or torches. So did the Egyptians use mirrors to reflect sunlight? But the “mirrors” of that time were only silver, and could only reflect 40% of the light, meaning that at a depth of a few tens of meters, darkness would completely cover again. A shocking discovery has shocked the archaeological world: at the temple of Hator in Denderah, built more than 4,200 years ago, there are drawings showing that the Egyptians “used strange instruments that looked like light bulbs. electricity today!”. Is this the mysterious light technique? Scientist Erich Von Daniken (Germany) is trying to recreate these giant light bulbs in the lab, but has not found the core of the problem. Egyptologists also conceded defeat, because apparently there was no electricity at that time. With such records of “forever-on” lamps being discovered around the world, it may be confirmed that these mysterious lamps do indeed exist. However, the manufacture and use of them is still a mystery to mankind and the scientific world.

Many people believe that, even after his death, Vo Tac Thien still had great influence on the nation’s destiny. Not far away, many people believe that even Can Lang – where Vo Tac Thien chose to be his burial place – also contains many secrets… 1. In February 705, Empress Wu became seriously ill and could no longer take care of the government. Taking that opportunity, the prime minister Truong Gian Tri led the civil and martial mandarins in the court, carried out a coup, stormed the harem, captured and killed the two brothers Truong Xuong Tong – who were greatly favored by Empress Wu – and then forced Empress Wu to cast a decree ceding the throne to Crown Prince Lee Hien. Ly Hien ascended to the throne again, known as Duong Trung Tong, Empress Wu retired as Thai Thuong Hoang and died in November of that year. On her deathbed, Empress Wu asked Lee Hsien to use the posthumous title of Empress, not Emperor, so she did not have a temple title like other Emperors. Empress Wu also requested to be buried in Can Lang with her husband, Cao Tong Ly Tri, and erected on her grave an empty stele (called Wu Tu stele) with the intention that her merits would be attributed to the next life. judgment. Up to now, people have not been able to explain why an ambitious woman like Vo Tac Thien – who dared to destroy an illustrious dynasty and established his own dynasty – came to the last minute. Together, she returned to the status of a wife, requesting to be “buried” with her husband, Cao Tong. However, the family believes that one of the reasons why Vo Tac Thien chose Can Lang as his burial place is because of the extremely favorable terrain of this mausoleum. Can Lang was built on the top of Luong Son mountain, located 6km north of Thien Can district. This place is about 160 miles from Xi’an – the capital of the Tang Dynasty, forming a position corresponding to the mountain ranges of Cuu Tong, Kim Tuc, Ta Nga, Nghiao Son… Different from the location of Chieu Lang by Ly The Dan – the king himself. famous Tang Dynasty – self-selection, it is said, the location of Qianling was chosen in an extremely professional manner. The person who chose the location to build the Can Lang was the Thai historian Ly Thuan Phong – the mandarin responsible for yin and yang and astronomy of the Tang dynasty. During the Tang Dynasty, there were many talented people, and there was no shortage of talented people in or in the palace. Ly Thuan Phong is one of those talents. The historian, surnamed Li, is one of the famous ancient Chinese astronomers and numerologists. He is also the one who left behind many works that today are considered by ancient Chinese researchers and astronomers as bedside textbooks. At the same time as Ly Thuan Phong, at that time there was another equally talented person called Vien Thien Canh. Like the Ly family, the Vien family is a master of yin and yang divination. It was Vien who helped Ly The Dan choose the location to build Chieu Lang. Contemporaries believed that Vien was a “divine man”, because almost nothing Vien predicted would go wrong. In modern terms, at that time, Ly Thuan Phong and Vien Thien Canh were considered as great intellectuals, the most powerful academic figures in the Tang dynasty. Ly Tri was originally the 9th son of Ly The Dan, born by Empress Truong Ton. In 649, when Ly Thua Can was deposed, Ly Tri ascended the throne, becoming Emperor Cao Tong. Not long after ascending the throne, according to the old practice of the Tang Dynasty, Ly Tri sent Ly Thuan Phong and Vien Thien Canh on their behalf to find a good place to build a grave. According to historical records, the Vien and Ly families have gone to many places but have not found a satisfactory location. It was not until one day, after Vien Thien Canh came to Quan Trung, observing the celestial object at the hour of the Rat, did he discover that a purple gas appeared on the mountain range straight up to the North Star. Purple gas appearing in the concept is a good omen. Following this purple aura, Vien Thien Canh found the location to build the present-day Can Lang. At that time, to mark, Vien Thien Canh buried a bronze coin in the ground. Coincidentally, after that, Ly Thuan Phong also came here. However, unlike Vien Thien Canh, the Ly family chose Luong Son due to careful analysis of the topography of this mountain. After studying the topography of Luong Son mountain, Ly Thuan Phong discovered that the two peaks to the east and west of Luong Son are opposite each other, so if viewed from afar, Luong Son mountain looks like a pair of breasts of Luong Son mountain. woman. If you look at it more broadly, the entire Liangshan area looks like a sleeping noble woman. After using the pieces of stone arranged into a bagua diagram to calculate, Ly Thuan Phong also determined the location of the mausoleum right where Vien Thien Canh had chosen. After receiving information from the Li and Vien surnames, Li Tri immediately sent his uncle Truong Ton Wuji to review it again before making a decision. According to historical records, when he arrived, Truong Ton Vo Ky couldn’t help but be surprised when the head of the iron stake that Ly Thuan Phong drove into the ground to mark was right in the square inside with the coin that Vien Thien Canh had buried. 2. Because Luong Son – the place where Can Lang was built – has a terrain very similar to a woman’s breasts, so the locals here also call Luong Son mountain Nai Dau Son. This mountain looks very majestic up close, but it is very low from afar. Vien Thien Canh believes that the yin here is heavier, so if you don’t calculate it carefully, the Ly family’s dragon vein will be damaged by a woman. The reason given by Vien Thien Canh seems to be very reasonable. Mount Luong Son is located to the west of Cuu Tong Mountain, while the Long Vein of Tang Dynasty is located to the East of Cuu Tong. Therefore, Vien believes that Chieu Lang – the place where Ly The Dan is buried – is the first part of the long vein of the Tang dynasty. According to the traditional concept, the site of construction of the mausoleum for Ly Tri must be under this “dragon head”. Thus, the most ideal grave location must be in the mountains of Kim Tuc, Ta Nga, and Nghia Son… However, now there is a woman sitting on top of the Ly men’s heads. In terms of topography, both sides of Luong Son are surrounded by water, which is a place of gas gathering, truly a prime location for . Contemporaries acknowledged this. It is said that the Luong Son range has been the “residual” part of the dragon vein since the Zhou Dynasty, so ordinary people who choose this land as a burial place can ensure three generations of wealth and prosperity. However, for the Tang dynasty, three generations were too short. Moreover, Luong Son’s great position did not respond to Chieu Lang’s, which was chosen by Ly The Dan. This unresponsiveness causes the king to be interrupted, lest he will be hindered after only three generations. Truong Ton Vo Ky and Ly Thuan Phong both said that this is a good land, once every thousand years, while Vien Thien Canh firmly asserted that this place was not suitable. Facing two completely opposite opinions, Ly Tri at that time did not know how to decide. At that time, Vo Tac Thien was Chieu Nghi, very happy to hear this. Vien Thien Canh once predicted that the Tang dynasty would be invaded by a woman surnamed Wu. Ly The Dan also for this reason killed many people surnamed Vo. Moreover, in the past, when the surname Vien was in the face of Vo Tac Thien, he said: “If it is not a woman, it will definitely be the ruler of the world”. So, isn’t the terrain of Luong Son in line with what Vien Thien Canh predicted? Thinking so, Vo Tac Thien tried to advise Ly Tri not to hesitate, listening to his words, Truong Ton Vo Ky. Ly Tri was inherently a weak person, so he was soon persuaded by Vo Tac Thien, the choice of the location to build the Can Lang was decided. It is said that, after knowing the story, Vien Thien Canh sighed and lamented: “The replacement of the Tang Dynasty is none other than Vo Chieu Nghi”. Vien’s words later certainly came to fruition. Although he did not listen to Vien Thien Canh’s words, the opinions of a “great master” like Vien also made Truong Ton Vo Ky and Ly Tri feel worried. Therefore, after the tomb was built, Ly Tri wanted to find a name very carefully to balance the shortcomings in the terrain of the tomb. At that time, a great minister proposed to name the mausoleum “Thua Lang”, with the intention of inheriting Chieu Lang’s dragon vein. However, Truong Ton Vo Ky based on the position of Luong Son is located in the Northwest, according to Dich, it belongs to the Can palace, so the proposal is named Can Lang. Didn’t Vien Thien Canh say that Luong Son’s yin was too heavy? Thus, naming it Can Lang is more reasonable because Qian is the yang, above, and below, yin, both combined are “Yin and yang are compatible with Qiankun”. Ly Tri listened to Truong Ton Vo Ky explain very well, so he decided to name the mausoleum Can Lang. However, giving the tomb a “positive” name did not help Ly Tri and the Tang dynasty to get rid of the “curse”. As expected, after Ly Tri died, Vo Tac Thien began to gradually acquire power in the court. In September 690, Wu Zetian officially ascended the throne, becoming the only Queen in the Chinese feudal system. It is believed that it was the terrain of Can Lang that helped Vo Tac Thien make such an illustrious career and that is why at the end of his life, Vo Tac Thien decided to be buried in Can Lang, not because he wanted to. buried with Cao Tong Ly Tri Street.

Li Bai (701-762) was one of the most famous poets of the Tang Dynasty in China. He is not only known as a great poet, he is also known as “Zu Trung Tien” because of his rare wine-loving style. In particular, in his poems, there was once a cup of wine that could not be exhausted no matter how he drank it: “The ladle of the falcon, the cup of the parrot, one hundred five thirty-six thousand days, one day should be inclined three hundred cups.” (Tuong Duong ca). The cup of wine “drinking forever” really exists in history. Photo: Sina Archaeologists have always been very interested in the “parrot cup” or “parrot cup” that Li Bai refers to, but such artifacts have never been excavated. It was not until the discovery of an ancient Jin Dynasty (317 – 420) tomb in 1965 that archaeologists found the strange wine glass described in these poems. Invention ahead of its time In 1965, archaeologists discovered a family tomb in Xiangshan, Nanjing. Based on the stele unearthed, the archaeological team judged that the owner of the tomb belonged to the Vuong family, one of the four largest clans of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Here, in addition to finding a large number of burial items, which are of great value to the study of family culture and funeral customs of the Wei and Jin dynasties, scientists were also very surprised. when unearthed a large snail shell in the grave . The cup was unearthed. Photo: Sina The appearance of the Anh Vu snail caused a lot of controversy in the professional world, because this was the first time they unearthed a strange artifact. Through research, the experts eventually discovered: It turns out that this is the famous “parrot cup” in history, this cup is originally made from Anh Vu snail shell. Perhaps, the owner of the tomb is also a person with a passion for wine like poet Ly Bach, so he decided to bring this cup to his final resting place. This is the first time people have unearthed a parrot cup, so experts are very interested and want to study why the parrot cup can contain such a large amount of alcohol, because from the outside, this is really a normal Anh Vu snail shell, nothing special. The secret inside To find out the answer to this problem, experts decided to take an X-ray of the cup, it turned out that the image of “300 cup tilting day” in Li Bai’s poetry was not a product of pompous tricks, it’s true. Inside the parrot cup there are lots of naturally created nets that occupy the dense interior of the prison and, all hidden nets are connected by small holes. When the ancients poured wine into the parrot cup, the wine would gradually seep into the net through small holes. In this way, when the ancients poured wine from a parrot cup, the wine inside would not be poured out all at once, but flowed out little by little under the influence of air pressure.In this way, it gives the illusion that the alcohol in it never runs out. Recreate the image inside the parrot cup. Photo: Sina After the experts learned this secret, they felt great admiration for the wisdom of the ancients. The working principle of the parrot cup is very similar to today’s activated carbon, it uses the spatial structure inside the object to achieve the purpose of slowing down the flow. Drinking with a small glass of wine with such a long pouring power is very elegant and rich in emotion, so the parrot cup is always sought after by antique wine lovers. The parrot cup is so popular, but why has it disappeared from history? Experts believe that the cause is due to the main material of the cup – the Anh Vu snail, which has a very small number. This animal lives on the seabed several hundred meters deep in the tropics and subtropics, so it is not easy to find.

But what is surprising is that such a huge mass of emperors’ tombs have never been found, they seem to have disappeared into thin air. “Starting the cup” – where this mysterious valley is located, is still a mystery to this day. This problem has been troubling archaeologists around the world for over 600 years since the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties, countless people have searched for the exact location of the “Kaijia Valley”. Of course, after many years of exploration, it is not without results, for example, the true location of “Starting Cup” now has some clues. Currently, in the world, there are two most valuable historical documents for studying the Mongol Empire, one is the “Yuanshi” compiled during the Ming dynasty, and the other is the “History” of Iran. However, many people have never heard of the book “History”. This book was compiled by the Prime Minister of the Yer Khanate (also known as the Yili Khanate or the Yi Er Khanate, one of the four khanates of the Mongol Empire founded in Persia in the 13th century, considered to was part of the Mongol empire that covered almost half of Central Asia). After the Mongol cavalry conquered all of Central Asia, they brought with them the secret skills unique to the Central Highlands. The book “History” was written in this context, so it belongs to the mainstream history books and its contents are quite reliable. In the “History”, it is clearly indicated the location of the “Beginner Cup” – Burkhan Khaldun Mongolian Mountains. Not only that, the “History” also lists in detail all the rivers near the mountain, which is an important basis for scholars to discover the specific location of the “Burkhan Khaldun mountain range”. In “History”, it is mentioned that the east side of the mountain is the Onon River, the northwest is “Cable Lat Hop”, the southwest is “Tula”, the south central part of the mountain is “Kep Luc Lien”, Names of rivers in Mongolian. Based on the direction of these rivers, foreign experts have finally determined the true location of the “Starting Cup” – the Great Kent mountain in present-day Mongolia. In addition, the search for the tombs of the Yuan Dynasty is not only studied by the archaeological community in China, it is also a major topic worldwide, and there are many leading scholars inside and outside China. National research on this issue. According to the “History” record, Genghis Khan and his successors were buried here, noting that the successors included not only Yuan emperors but also many the great khan of the four great Mongol khanates of more than half of the globe. Now everyone knows why archaeologists all over the world are interested in this issue. With the vast territory of the Mongol Empire, the treasures of the different races of the world in the “Starting Cup” could be piled up like mountains. If this place is found and excavated, its value will even exceed the excavation of all the tombs of the Pharaohs in Egypt. Of course, the “Beginner Cup” which is the “Mongolian Kent Mountains” above is just one of many statements, mainly attributed to many scholars around the world. Another group of scholars believe that “Starting the Cup” is near Ordos – China (a city of Inner Mongolia). This view has two bases: First, the “Eight White Houses” Genghis Khan of Ordos. The “Bai White House” is now the “Tomb of Genghis Khan” in Inner Mongolia, about 40 kilometers from the Ordos urban area, which is not only a famous 5A grade tourist attraction, but also the most important place for tourists. with people of all ethnicities in Mongolia to worship Genghis Khan. Scholars suggest that Genghis Khan’s actual burial place is probably not too far from the “Bai White House”, as the camel hair associated with Genghis Khan’s last breath is here, and the “breath” is here. last” means “soul” of the Great Khan, and the burial place of course would not be too far away. Second: Genghis Khan died midway through his conquest of the Western Summer, if the body were transported to the present “Great Kent Mountains” the journey would be too long. According to various historical records, Genghis Khan died in Lingzhou, Western Xia, now in Ningwu County, Ningxia, China. “The Secret History of Mongolia”: “In the Year of the Pig, Genghis Khan ascended to heaven after capturing the city of Duo Bon Mien Can.” “History”: “In the Year of the Pig, Han (Genghis Khan) entered Luc Ban Mountain, died on August 15. “History of the Yuan Dynasty”: “Thai To besieged Tay Ha for 22 years, in May leaped away from the summer heat in Luc Ban Mountain, descended to Tay Ha in June, and collapsed in the Thich Do Palace in Ta Ly Xuyen. in August, and was buried in the Khoi Lian Valley.” There is no doubt about the death of Genghis Khan in Lingzhou, Western Xia. So the question is, scholars have pointed out, if the Mongol court at that time would have brought Genghis Khan’s body back to the “Great Kent” mountains? If the road is so far, how should Genghis Khan’s body be preserved? These two questions are very good. Therefore, it is reasonable to say that Genghis Khan’s body was buried in Ordos, Inner Mongolia. In addition to the above two main theories, there are other theories such as Altay mountain, Luc Ban mountain where the burial site is located, and Truong Gia Khau, these statements are relatively small, so it is not necessary to repeat them here. The tombs of the Yuan dynasty are very mysterious, closely related to the Mongolian custom of “secret burial”. According to “Marco Polo’s Travels”, those who wrote the way to bury the coffins of the khan had to be killed, to prevent the news from spreading. In addition, the place where the mausoleum is located must be in the “No signs, no trees”, not have any landmarks. From the outside looking in, it is impossible to know the location of the tomb. The Mongolian custom of “secret burial” was an important reason why the Tomb of the Yuan Dynasty remained undiscovered for hundreds of years. Those who really know the location of the tombs of the Yuan emperors and the Great Khans are as secretive as the bottlenecks, unable to reveal half an hour to outsiders for a lifetime. The reason is very simple, they do not want the rest of their ancestors and themselves to be disturbed by outsiders. Diep Tu in the book “Tao Moc Tu” of the Ming Dynasty said that in the past, the way to the tomb was found by Mongol soldiers killing the young camels in front of the female camels in the mausoleum, and the female camels would recognize it. the location of the mausoleum and lead the way if needed. However, Mr. Diep’s way of finding the way does not seem to be correct, the matter of the tomb is great, how can the Mongol aristocrats find that way? Just one question: What if the mother camel died in the middle of the road or was stolen? So this statement has no basis. The tombs of such mysterious Yuan emperors are indeed closely related to the Mongolian custom of “secret burial”. Currently, it seems that Genghis Khan and the tomb of the Yuan dynasty are most likely in the Greater Kent Mountains or near Ordos. In fact, the historical records of the location of “Starting the Cup” have been thoroughly researched by experts, and now the only thing that is needed is, just to find the exact address through surveying. archeology. If it is true that the mausoleum is in China, they plan to be properly protected, but if the mausoleum is on the Mongolian side, perhaps cooperation between these two countries is needed to find the exact address.

A false door dated to 2,400 BC. Photo: Sharron Mollerus. What is a fake door? False doors were one of the most common architectural features in ancient Egyptian tombs, mainly royal tombs, dating back to the Egypt’s Old Kingdom period. False doors first appeared in the Mastaba . tombs [loại mộ cổ hình chóp cụt] It belonged to the Third Dynasty and was widely used in tombs of the Fourth to Sixth Dynasties. False doors are usually made from a monolithic limestone rock, sometimes painted red with black spots. Its shape resembles a real door with an outer frame but is longer and narrower, such as the false door in Sean Khui Ptah’s tomb located in the Teti cemetery in Saqqara, Egypt. However, in the tomb of Hesire lăng [bác sĩ của Pharaoh Djoser] and many others, false doors can be made of wood. The fake door is almost always fixed in place. But in rare cases, they can be teleported. The original form of the false door was just a small alcove facing the west. Then, the ancient Egyptians carved out a square or rectangle at the top where they believed that gods or dead relatives would appear to receive offerings. The sides of the door are stone and linoleum [bộ phận nằm trên khung cửa có tác dụng đỡ mảng tường gạch phía trên] where the Egyptians wrote hieroglyphs. During the nearly 150-year rule of Sixth Dynasty pharaohs including Pepi I, Merenre and Pepi II, the false door underwent a series of design and layout changes. Based on that, historians can date many tombs based on the characteristics of the false doors. After the First Intermediate Period, the popularity of false doors in tombs dwindled. During the New Kingdom period, false doors became simpler, just drawings on the flat surface of a wall or stele engraved with hieroglyphs. Sometimes, fake doors are painted on the sides of the stone coffin. A grave may consist of two false doors, one for the owner of the grave and the other for his or her spouse. Also, in some cases of extended family graves, each member has their own false door. Gateway to the afterlife For the ancient Egyptians, false doors were considered a gateway between the world of the living and the world of the dead. They believe that the souls of deceased relatives can pass through this door to receive offerings or offerings. The false door is usually located on the west wall of the main room in the chapel, or altar room. It is meticulously decorated, bearing the name and title of the owner of the tomb. The hieroglyphic content on the false door also refers to offerings for the deceased. Sometimes it was a curse meant to protect the mummy and their spiritual journey after death. Anyone who dares to enter or tamper with the mummy’s tomb will be met with bad luck and inevitable death. However, those with good intentions who come to make offerings will be blessed. For example, the false door in Redi-ness’s tomb at Giza (Egypt) records the following: “I never wanted to harm anyone. But anyone who dares trespass on my resting place will be punished by the gods.” The life-sized statue is walking through the fake door. Photo: Wikimedia In some of the tombs, life-sized statues were created walking out of the center of the false door. On either side of the door were painted two servants accompanying them to show their noble status. Usually, in front of the fake door there will be a stone table – where offerings for the dead are placed. Offerings can be real food or symbolic food carved directly on the table such as bread, beer, chicken, beef, etc. Currently, fake doors are one of the unique architectural features of the ancient Egyptians that are interested and studied. Although many fake doors still exist in the mausoleum grounds, there are a few that have been removed and displayed in different museums around the world. Fake door outside Egypt Egypt is not the only place where strange fake doors can be found. In 1996, tour guide Jose Luis Delgado Mamani accidentally discovered a stone gate 7m high, 2m wide in the mountains of Hayu Marca, about 35 km from the Peruvian city of Puno. It was named the “Gate of Gods”, or “Gate of the Gods”. According to legend, anyone who walks through the Gate of God will become immortal. The native Indians believe that the great heroes of the past passed through this gate to enter the land of the gods and enjoy eternal life. Gate of God in Peru. Photo: Alamy In addition to the Divine Gate in Peru, there are many ancient structures that are said to be portals to other worlds. For example, the Stonehenge stone circle in England; Gate of the Sun in Tiahuanaco, Bolivia; The Star Gate in Sri Lanka, … In January 2018, archaeologists discovered a fake door in a Greek tomb at the Al-Abd archaeological site in Alexandria. Dr Ayman Ashmawy, an expert in Egyptian antiquities, said that the fake door in this case played a role in misleading thieves, making it impossible for them to find the real door of the tomb.

Halfway up Phja Mon mountain (circled), where the ancient coffin is located. PHOTO: Duy Chien Deadly According to the police report of Van Lang district, Lang Son province, around 9 a.m., on October 15, 2017, local authorities discovered a ladder rope about 60 meters long made of blue synthetic fiber, bamboo slats. with two-headed iron pipes hanging from the middle of the cliff of Phja Mon mountain to National Highway 4A, in the area of ​​​​zone 5, Na Sam town, Van Lang district. Van Lang district police investigated, determined that there were 4 people including: Nguyen Thanh Hai (SN 1965), Hua Van Mong (SN 1974), Hua Van Vang (SN 1990, all residing in Na Sam town, Van district. Lang) and Doan Hong Thien (SN 1992, police officer of Trang Dinh district, Lang Son) involved in the incident. At the police station, the above group of people confessed that they heard rumors that there was a mysterious cave in the middle of the high and dangerous mountain Phja Mon, where there were many gold and silver treasures left by the ancients. In 2001, a group of people entered the cave. Two of them died after returning. A person was determined when swinging from the cave to the ground, the rope was not enough to land, this person jumped down, suffered from back cartilage and died soon after. The death of the gold seekers accidentally like magic so the group of 4 people living in the locality continued to go to the cave to find treasure. They agreed with each other, performing work at night, hiding during the day, resting in niches and caves. At around 8:00 p.m. on October 13, 2017, four people departed from Hai’s house, carrying a rope ladder along the Coc Lai trail to the top of Phja Mon mountain, then dropping the rope from the top to the cave area in the middle. (This cave is about 50m from the top of the mountain and over 60m from the foot of the mountain). The other two are Mong and Vang waiting at the top of the mountain to supply. After the exploration, the next night, they dropped the rope, swung their body to the ground and was then summoned by the local police agency. Colonel Pham Tuan Bang, head of Van Lang district police, said that based on documents and testimonies of the subjects, the mouth of the cave suspected of containing gold was about 3m wide and 3m high. From the mouth of the cave, there is a stone mound about 1m high, blocking the entrance of the cave. In the cave, there are many compartments (subjects have explored 3 compartments). The first compartment is about 60m2 wide (10m long, 6m wide). In the middle of the first chamber on the right, there is a small path going up, to a parallel 60m2 wide cave, higher than the first cave. There are about 20 round wooden coffins (about 1m long, 40cm wide) inside with skulls and bones suspected to be human bones. The wooden coffins are arranged in 2 rows in the style of terraced fields, some of the coffins have been broken (in this compartment there is no altar, no incense bowl, writing on the cave wall). The group of people were quietly following a small path to continue searching for gold and silver, when they stopped, did not dare to continue, and quickly left the scene because in the dark there was the shadow of a giant animal, the shape of a giant animal. like a python blocking the road. “After the incident, it was reported that the Chinese came to the locality to continue to explore precious minerals hidden in Phja Mon cave. Through investigation, it was a false rumor, in which there was no wealth, gold or silver,” Colonel Bang affirmed. The coffin was buried in the mountain (photo provided by Lang Son Museum) “Heavenly Burial” Mr. Nong Duc Kien, Director of Lang Son Provincial Museum, said that after receiving the information, specialized agencies have entered the investigation. According to photos and documents provided by authorities and people, the coffins are now not intact, most of them have been broken open (maybe because some people had previously entered to find antiques). . The coffin is made of a large wooden trunk split into two equal parts, in the middle is cut in the shape of a trough to place the body, then close to each other) with keyholes at both ends that are locked with wedges. The coffin is about 1m long, 0.4m in diameter (many are broken and rotten). There are no carved patterns on the coffin. The coffin is arranged in two rows facing up in the style of terraced fields located close to the cave wall, inside there are human bones. “This is a rather unique form of ancient burial in a cave. The dead are not buried but buried in a cave, the coffin is made of tree trunks, crafted quite delicately, shaped like a small canoe, expressed through the technique of opening the heart and latching the coffin quite similar to The coffin was discovered at Keo Lam cave in Lung Phay village, Chi Minh commune, Trang Dinh district, Lang Son in 2016. Based on the specimen, it is possible that this artifact was about 300-400 years ago. ” Mr. Kien said. “The form of ancient burial is quite unique in the cave, in Vietnam, it has only been discovered in three provinces of Thanh Hoa, Son La, and Lang Son.” He Nong Duc Kien ,Director of Lang Son Museum According to Mr. Kien, the discovery of graves at Phja Mon cave are important historical documents, contributing to scientific research for archaeologists, ethnographers, in many fields of history and human history. race, creed. Through it, we can lift the mysterious veil of the ancient tomb, sketching out the economic and social situation of the ethnic people of Lang in ancient times. Mr. Kien said, on April 23, 2021, the survey team including leaders of the cultural industry, the Museum and the People’s Committee of Van Lang district came to the scene. However, because the road to Phja Mon cave is very difficult, having to use a climbing ladder from the top of the mountain is very dangerous and unsafe, and on this occasion the COVID-19 epidemic broke out again, so the work must be done. stop. “We are thinking of hiring an expedition team with specialized machinery to go into the cave to collect artifacts for research. But in the immediate future, in order to manage and protect the artifacts in their original state, it is recommended that local authorities at all levels step up propaganda work and take measures to protect the integrity of antiques,” said Mr. Kien.

With glorious victories, Napoleon dominated nearly all of Europe for more than a decade, but ended up in sickness. Photo: Wikimedia Commons The most famous general and former Emperor in French history died on May 5, 1821 on the remote island of Saint Helena in the middle of the Atlantic, where he had to live in exile for six years after his surrender. British army. Although the autopsy results suggested that the cause of his death was stomach cancer, many conspiracy theories have emerged: from Napoleon being poisoned at the hands of his captors, or the wallpaper. in his house was soaked with arsenic. One rumor even claims that the remains of the emperor currently housed at the tomb in Paris are faked, as Napoleon fled to America. Recently, biomedical scientist Parvez Haris, of De Montfort University in Leicester (UK) has a new theory: Napoleon was poisoned by his favorite aromatic oils. Military genius has gone through many years of using perfume bluff, even a few bottles a day. 1826 painting by French painter Émile Jean-Horace Vernet depicts Napoleon on the hospital bed. Previous studies from the US have shown that essential oils can act as “endocrine disruptors”, affecting hormones, leading to growth disorders and tumors. According to Professor Haris, overexposure to these essential oils explains a lot about Napoleon’s declining health in the last years of his life, including his deadly stomach cancer. Victims of essential oils Napoleon not only was exposed to excessive amounts of essential oils through the use of Eau de Cologne (a low-essential perfume line), he also drank orange perfume regularly, and as a native of Corsica, he is fan of citrus fruits – all of which are high in essential oils. In 2017, a study by the New England Journal of Medicine concluded that abuse of tea tree and lavender essential oils could cause so-called gynecomastia in boys. This is a swelling in a man’s breast tissue, and according to some reports Napoleon may have had it as well. Painting Napoleon riding a horse across the Saint-Bernard Pass in the Alps in May 1800. The above documents also show that he may suffer from hairless body disorder, and often complain of being cold, having to heat up during the summer. Both of those signs were consistent with a disruption to his endocrine system. Napoleon also suffers from epilepsy, which recent research has also shown is linked to excessive essential oils exposure. “The investigators actually missed a big, obvious problem with Napoleon’s death,” explained Professor Haris. He said he was so sure of his findings that he could give evidence. “In any court of the world”. Antommarchi Antommarchi mask of Napoleon, at a museum in Paris. Photo: DM “Many people point out that Napoleon’s hair samples, taken while he were alive, have high levels of arsenic, but this theory has now been disproved. Most people in the Napoleonic period had high levels of arsenic in their bodies because arsenic was found in the medicines and cosmetics used at that time, ”said Professor Haris. Mr. Haris continued: ‘What they missed is the huge amount of perfume that Napoleon applied to his body every day. He lives surrounded by perfume, he even sprayed it directly on his face and eyes because it was mistaken for water “. Essential oil – a double-edged sword According to Professor Haris, Napoleon was a great advocate of perfumes, which had only been commercially produced since 1792. At that time, only very rich and powerful people could afford them. One theory is that Napoleon’s remains in the tomb in Paris (pictured) are fake and Napoleon escaped to America. According to Professor Haris, prolonged overexposure to essential oils explains Napoleon’s declining health in the last years of his life. Photo: DM Although Napoleon disliked doctors and avoided their medication, he was still convinced by the health benefits of perfumes. He is said to have once said that perfumes “are protection against many diseases. “So for at least 20 years, Napoleon bathed his body in perfume, he poured perfume down from his head, and in some cases he literally soaked in that water”, Giao Haris said. “He carries many bottles of perfume even during military campaigns. The data shows that Napoleon consumes 2-3 bottles of Eau de Cologne per day, while today, people use only 1 bottle for the whole year! ”. At one point, Napoleon’s perfumer Gervais Chardin ordered 50 bottles of Eau de Cologne water per month. An invoice in 1806 shows him supplying 162 bottles of perfumes for a total of 423 francs. It is thought that Eau de Cologne reminded the French Emperor at that time of his hometown, Corsica, because one of the main ingredients of the fragrance was rosemary, which grows between cliffs and Rock land on the Mediterranean island. Map of the island of St Helena, where Napoleon was exiled, in the Indian Ocean. For Napoleon, the Eau de Cologne is a double-edged sword. Perfumes mainly contain alcohol and therefore are capable of acting as an antiseptic. This could have saved his life by protecting him from deadly bacteria or viruses while participating in campaigns in different regions of Europe as well as Asia (Syria) and Africa (Egypt). . However, it eventually killed him for being overused for decades ”, Professor Haris concludes. “There is no doubt in my opinion that Eau de Cologne is the primary poison, although co-exposure to other chemicals, including arsenic, may have contributed to poor health. and eventually death from stomach cancer ”. According to many accounts, the last years of Napoleon’s life – after his defeat at the Battle of Waterloo – were of little honor to the former emperor. The Longwood House on windy St Helena Road – where Napoleon was moved in exile – is said to have fallen into disrepair, damp and musty. The Duke of Wellington (riding forward) and Field Marshal Blucher commanded the Battle of Waterloo, defeating Napoleon’s army. Photo: DM Napoleon himself had repeatedly written letters complaining about his living conditions with St Helene Island Governor Hudson Lowe, when his servants complained of colds, wet floors and poor supplies. Lowe responded by restricting Napoleon’s spending and placing constraints on the gifts he was allowed to receive from the outside world. Barry O’Meara, Napoleon’s private physician, also warned British authorities that conditions at Longwood House, where the former French Emperor lived during his exile, appeared to be detrimental to his health. Meanwhile, modern researchers have also pointed out that Napoleon’s death was due to a copper arsenite-containing dye in the wallpaper at Longwood House, which is believed to have produced the poison gas. However, deprived exile does not seem to reduce the fire in Napoleon. He spent the rest of his life writing memoirs, writing a book about the hero Julius Caesar and having dinner parties as if he weren’t a captive.

Under the feudalism, the Chinese emperor not only focused on handling the main dynasty for the nation’s peace, but also devoted a lot of enthusiasm to the preparation of the thousands of autumn resting places. This is the reason, many princes prepare the tomb for themselves right after taking the throne, especially looking for places to build the tomb. According to feng-shui experts, the emperor’s tomb must be built in a place with extremely flourishing feng-shui features with a view of the river and mountain. In particular, the tomb construction site must be located on the long artery. This is considered one of the most important factors for the emperor’s eternal resting place. Ancient people thought that the dragon is directly related to the prosperity and decline of a dynasty. The emperor is often called the dragon’s leg, so their tomb must be on the dragon’s leg (the main dragon). When the emperor sleeps forever at the tomb in the above position, it will be considered according to the will of God, showing the position and power of the emperor. In addition, the emperor’s tomb on the artery also demonstrates the preservation of power and the flourishing of the dynasty in successive kings. In particular, Huangtou mountain (later renamed “Thien Tho”) in Changping, north of Beijing is one of the famous historical sites of arowanas chosen by many emperors as the place to build the mausoleum. Thirteen emperors including Minh Thanh To, 23 queens and dozens of other concubines were buried at tombs at Hoang Tho Mountain.

An ancient tomb was found in an ordinary village, the contents have astounded archaeologists: A banquet table is still intact! In 1993, a resident in Zhangjiakou, Hebei accidentally discovered that there was water seepage on the ground, so he called the concerned person to investigate. Thanks to that, an ancient tomb was discovered. According to experts, these graves belong to a family of Zhang built in the Lieu dynasty, more than a thousand years ago. The entire passage of the tomb is more than 6 meters long, going down the path is the arched tower gate, on this tower gate there are many carved decorations, lifelike patterns. There are two doors underneath the gate, like the houses we see today. The expert opened the door to see two statues on either side, similar to the guard. If you continue forward, there will be another wooden door, which can be opened to enter the back room, where a lot of precious burial items are placed. What surprised the experts, however, was not how luxurious the funeral items were, but a dining table. Photos of the dining table found (Photo: Sohu) In the back room, there is a large round table with eating utensils and fruit and dishes. Although most foods have gone rancid after thousands of years, they can still be distinguished: There are grapes, chestnuts and other common dishes on the table. Because the owner of the tomb believes in Buddhism, the meal is vegetarian, without meat. Next to the table and chairs, seems to want to invite the owner to dine at any time. In addition, there is also a small granary for storing sorghum and grains. There was also a green bottle of water on the table, in which there was a little liquid and an orange-red color, when approaching one could smell a strong aroma, it was deduced that it must be the wine thousands of years ago. . Based on the grapes and wine found, it can be inferred that in the Lieu period, people already had grapes and could use it for wine making. According to the epitaph found in the tomb, it can be speculated that the owner is a Lieu family and has done a lot of good deeds throughout his life, so it is loved by everyone around him. His epitaph also states that by entering the tomb, everyone can sit down and drink a glass of wine, which shows that this person is open and friendly. Rarely, an ancient tomb thousands of years ago can still be kept as intact, it is of great significance for later research. According to Sohu

However, have you ever wondered where this huge treasure of knowledge, from drawings, historical books or records of artistic quintessence, is kept? The answer is papyrus. Traces of majestic history, primitive knowledge from one of the first human civilizations recorded on papyrus, passed from generation to generation. Therefore, the papyrus has become a symbol of culture, spirituality and history of ancient Egyptian society, as well as the precious heritage of modern Egypt. Paper roll of papyrus. (Source: UK McClung Museum) Ancient, versatile The papyrus papyrus is one of the oldest known plant species known to mankind and Egypt is considered the origin of this plant. The papyrus grows in the swamps on both sides of the Nile River, relying on the sediments of the Nile to nurture and grow. The oldest recorded record of the appearance of the papyrus tree is that of the Greek historian Herodotus, in 450 BC: “The papyrus grew from the swamps, the body was fine. cut and processed into different products, the lower rhizome is eaten or sold ”. The ancient Egyptians discovered the value of papyrus in everyday life. Not only was the main material in papyrus paper production, papyrus also had many other uses in the daily life of ancient Egyptians. The lower stems and roots can be eaten raw or grilled. One can chew on the papyrus stalk, swallow the water and then spit the pulp like gum. Papyrus is also braided as a rope, fishing net, even a boat or decorative details on a boat. In households, papyrus can be used as firewood for cooking, knitting into everyday items such as bags, corks, bed sheets, carpets, curtains, slippers … In the medical field, dry papyrus ash is used to treat skin diseases (caustic, calluses …) or prevent cold sores from developing. The Papyrus habitat is wetlands along the banks of the Nile. (Source: African Plants – A Photo Guide) Witness of history In ancient Egyptian cosmology, the world was created when the first god stood on a mound emerging from the infinite darkness, indistinguishable between darkness and water. Every year, this mound will emerge from the water with the papyrus. Therefore, the papyrus is the symbol of fertility, rebirth, the germ of creation. In that sacred sense, the ancient Egyptians used papyrus as amulets, funerals, mummies or paintings in temples. Amulets made from the papyrus tree are worn around the neck, sewn on a mummy’s scarf, or placed under the mummy’s head to help the deceased feel as warm as they were alive despite having stepped foot into the afterlife. The paintings on the walls of many tombs show that papyrus was used in ceremonies or funerals. The attendees at the ceremony often carry papyrus stalks as an offering to the gods. There is an opinion that when thinking of Egypt, people immediately think of papyrus. The ancient Egyptians invented papyrus paper for so long, so long that it is impossible to determine the exact time. Much of the history of Egypt and the ancient world came to the modern world through information written on papyrus. The use of papyrus paper from the I Dynasty, 3100 BC is recorded on frescoes in the shape of a scroll, and is also considered an image of a book. So how was papyrus produced by the ancient Egyptians? First, they pulled the papyrus stalk out of the swamp, tied it in bundles and brought it to the processing plant. Then, the stalk is cut into thin slices, soaked in water for several days to soften. Finally, the slices are layered, squeezed out of water and strengthened adhesion. The papyrus is dried, which can be glued to increase length depending on the intended use. The image of the papyrus tree is used as a decorative detail on the boat. (Source: UK McClung Museum). Ancient papyrus is found in many places, but mainly in tombs. During the 1903-1920 excavation at the village of Deir al Medina (the residence of those working for tombs in the Valley of the Kings), in the city of Thebes (now Luxor) by the Italian Egyptologist. Leading Ernesto Schiaparelli, historians found 16 meters of papyrus, known as the “Book of the Dead” on the tomb of the main craftsman Kha and his wife Merit (built around 1386-1349 BC ). This is an ancient Egyptian religious document, another name is “The Book of Light” or “The Letter”, a collection of spells and spells recorded to help the soul of the dead to the next world. the other through “Underworld Gate”. The book was written by many priests over a period of 1,000 years. Originally, this book was inscribed in hieroglyphs in pyramid mausoleums and served only to the Pharaohs. However, by the New Kingdom period (1550-1352 BC), this book was copied on papyrus by priests and used for princes, officials, and the upper class. The letter will be read during the mummification process and left in the tomb of the dead. Kha and his wife Merit in front of Death Osiris sitting under a papyrus tree in the Underworld. (Source: UK McClung Museum). Wait for the day “reborn” Today, under the influence of topography, environment and the development of modern settlements on the banks of the Nile, the papyrus tree is almost extinct in Egypt, and as a result, papyrus paper making has gradually faded. one. A small village in Egypt, one of the last to retain the papyrus tradition, is called Al Qaramous (Al Sharqia province). Artist Atef Mohamed Shehata is one of the few artisans in the village who also harvests papyrus and produces papyrus paper. Papyrus seeds are planted and it will take about a year to reach harvestable maturity. After harvest, the tree will regrow in about 1-2 months. Once upon a time, the whole village was covered with papyrus tree, but up to now, the area of ​​this tree is only about 4 hectares. At the end of the finishing process, the papyrus will be sold to other artists in the village, one of which is painter Saied Tarakhan. Finally, paintings on Papyrus paper will be sold at souvenir shops. However, the Covid-19 epidemic broke out, causing a significant decrease in the number of tourists, directly affecting the livelihoods of the villagers, who mostly depend on the harvest and sale of papyrus paintings. Tarakhan artist had to leave all of the studio’s painting staff and partially shut down the workshop. However, with the craftsmen Shehata and Tarakhan, papyrus has become a sacred part of life. They will continue to preserve the tradition of papyrus and papyrus painting for many generations to come, with the same hope that this tradition will continue to be restored, more brilliant and true to the meaning of the “rebirth” of the papyrus species. .

There is a theory that the official died suddenly, not due to illness, but was actually poisoned by the Emperor himself. Is that true or not? If that was the case, then what was the reason why a famous and benevolent king like Tong Nhan Tong was so merciless with his righteous courtiers like Bao Chan? The thrilling anecdote about the death of Bao Thanh Thien: Eliminated by the Emperor for committing a taboo? Bao Chan (999 – 1062), commonly known as Bao Thanh Thien or Bao Cong. He served as a mandarin for the Northern Song Dynasty, held many important positions in the court and was also known for his integrity, integrity and righteous judgment. Bao Thanh Thien served as mandarin during the reign of Emperor Tong Nhan Tong – the fourth king of the Northern Song Dynasty. As recorded in the old history, Tong Nhan Tong is famous for being a benevolent man, so historians always give favor to this Emperor with a lot of praise. Even at the time of his death, even the Emperor of Lieu could not help but mourn his tears. However, according to Qulishi, Tong Nhan Tong had an irreparable flaw in his life. That is, there is no son to follow. For men in ancient times, especially for an emperor like you, this is indeed a somewhat embarrassing and regrettable affair. But in the end, the king still faced a very difficult problem. It is a choice of a successor. Because he did not have a son to follow, he could only accept the 13th son of Boc An Y Vuong as a reserve. However, the anecdote about the king poisoning Bao Che said that the mandarin of the Bao surname was somewhat dissatisfied with the Emperor’s action. Bao Che wanted the king to return the throne to the descendants of Trieu Khuong Dan. This reached the final boundary of the Emperor. Stemming from suspicion and fear, Tong Nhan Tong took the opportunity of Bao Chan to get sick and sent medical staff to give him medicine. As a result, shortly after taking the king ban medicine, Bao Chan quickly passed away. The time from when the sick became sick to the time this official passed away was only 13 days. Because of that, the supporters of this hypothesis believe that Tong Nhan Tong was behind the death of Bao Thanh Thien, not some kind of “sickness” as history often records. The death of many doubts of Bao Thanh Thien The excavation of Bao Thanh Thien’s remains also clarifies a truth that posterity has mistaken for a long time: Bao Cong only owns a 1m65 tall, not big, imposing body like on the film. Regarding the last years of Bao Chan’s life, Bac Tong history only recorded a few lines: “In the sixth year of Gia Huu in the North Song Dynasty (in 1061), Bao Chan was appointed as the deputy envoy area”. This official position is on par with the Deputy Prime Minister, also the highest position he has ever held. Also according to this main historical document, in May of the following year, Bao Chan passed away from illness, “in the city, everyone is in grief, sighs from the big street to the small alley can be heard. In the 70s of the last century, the burial population of the Bao family was unearthed by Chinese archaeologists. Tomb and remains of Bao Thanh Thien were also included in the study. In this population of tombs, people have discovered an epitaph in the tomb that has recorded the life of Bao Cong. On it was written a few lines about the cause of his death: “In May, the seventh Gia Huu year (1062) suddenly got sick while he was working, so he had to return to the palace. His Majesty gave precious medicine, and on the day of Tan Mui, I could not wake up.” Specifically, the time of Bao Cong’s death fell on May 20, 1062. The reason for his death was declared to be due to illness. It is worth mentioning that, the time from the time he fell ill to his death was only 13 days. Illustration. The anomalies surrounding Bao Thanh Thien’s rapid death aroused many doubts of contemporaries and posterity in the future. The fact that some documents mention the precious remedy that Tong Nhan Tong bestowed upon Bao Cong made this king one of the most questioned people. (Illustration). Among them, the most questioned figure was Emperor Tong Nhan Tong – the king in office during Bao Chan’s time as a mandarin. There is even a theory that affirms that, during the period of his illness, Bao Cong only used the “precious medicine” given by His Majesty, then quickly passed away. Therefore, it is possible that the remedy given to him by King Song was not used to cure illnesses, but was actually a poison that took the life of that integrity official. Is Tong Nhan Tong the culprit behind Bao Thanh Thinhay’s death? If that was true, what was the motive for that Emperor to eliminate such a righteous and righteous god by his side? The real cause of Bao Cong’s death In 1973, the excavation of Bao Cong’s mausoleum opened up the posterity of the truth related to the death of this integrity official. According to experts, the assumption that Tong Nhan Tong poisoned Bao Chan is completely unfounded and unreliable. Not to mention that Song King had no motive to eliminate Bao Cong, just looking at the historians’ judgment was enough to remove suspicions against this emperor. Because, Tong Nhan Tong is considered a rare intelligence in Chinese history. How could such a monarch mercilessly bring down the powerful spirit at his side? There is also a theory that his departure is related to the “tonic” that His Majesty gave indirectly. This theory suspects that the physicians, due to jealousy of Bao Cong, should intentionally add toxic ingredients to the drug, making his illness worse. Regarding the mysteries surrounding the death of Bao Thanh Thien, the results of bone analysis from the remains of this official have partly revealed the truth of the matter. Chinese scientists coordinated with Anhui Provincial Museum to test bone fragments believed to be Covered by the method of synchronizing radiation with the Electron-Positron Collider. The results showed that the content of mercury, iron and calcium elements in Bao Thanh Thien’s bones was much higher than that of modern humans. Meanwhile, the content of lead and arsenic is lower than that of ordinary people. According to expert Ho Han Dan, director of the Anhui Provincial Museum at that time, this result preliminary excludes the possibility that “Bao Dai” is acutely poisoned by taking drugs containing arsenic. Regarding the problem of high mercury content in Bao Cong’s bones, the scientists gave two possibilities. One was when he was buried, people put in the coffin many robes to keep the body. This substance invades bones leading to high levels of mercury. Second, Bao Cheng used to take drugs or eat foods containing small amounts of mercury, causing chronic poisoning. Prof. Trinh Nhu Phong, expert Van – Su, Vice President of Bao Cong Research Association in Hefei City, said that through the test results, we can conclude that Bao Cong did not die from poisoning. Most likely, he had a heart disease or stroke that resulted in his illness and died so quickly. However, which illness led to the death of this famous historical judge is probably still a mystery.

Qin Shihuang was the first emperor of China with a history of five thousand years, unifying six vassal countries, unifying currencies, unifying documents, contributing to building the world famous Great Wall of China, and Of course, the large and large population of Qin Thuy Hoang tombs. The tomb of China’s first emperor is at the northern foot of Mount Lishan, 5 kilometers east of Lintong district, Shaanxi province, northern China. Built between 246 BC and 208 BC, spanning 39 years, this is one of the largest, most exotic and richest emperor tombs in the world – home to a multitude of treasures and mysteries, among which there are reasons for the existence of 8,000 human statues of terracotta army. Located in Shaanxi Province, China, Qin was discovered by accident in 1974. Since then, many magical legends have been aroused around this colossal colony of mausoleums. According to historical records, many different palaces were built in the Qin Mausoleum, displaying many strange treasures. A large number of burial pits and tombs of different shapes and meanings are also distributed around the Qin Mausoleum. With undeveloped technology, we can only see “the tip of the iceberg” in the Qin Shihuang mausoleum complex: There are 8000 warriors and terracotta war horses. However, that much knowledge is interesting and surprising enough for historians and archeologists. Over the past two thousand years, many grave thieves have tried to infiltrate the Qin mausoleum, but none of them succeeded. The reason is that the tomb of Tan Thuy Hoang was designed with many sophisticated underground traps during the construction process. These are the traps in the Qin Shihuang mausoleum that researchers discovered so far: First trap: Mercury During the survey, archaeologists also discovered that the concentration of mercury in the ground around the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum was actually very high. In addition to the presence of an antiseptic, these mercury are also highly toxic. The second trap: The crossbow trap Many Chinese historians have written about this sophisticated and dangerous trap in the Qin Shihuang Tomb. In the book “History” of the historian Sima Qian there is a specific record of this type of trap. He wrote: “The statue of the crossbow, possessing a fake armament of musk chi”. That means, for any intruder that destroys Qin King’s sleep, will suffer the most frightening consequences when the crossbows are stretched, ready to destroy the stranger with hundreds of sharp arrows. Image of a Qin crossbow. The famous Qin crossbow not only shoots farther than the bow and arrow, more damage, but also has a higher hit rate. This weapon is made of mulberries, the arms of the Qin crossbow are usually 60-75 cm long, 4-5 cm wide. Since the entire body of the crossbow is composed of dense leather straps, this not only enhances the structural strength of the bow’s stem, but also has excellent toughness and elasticity. Of course, whether the crossbow can function after two thousand years is not yet known. Third trap: Sand trap The tomb of Qin Shihuang is also equipped with sand traps. Once quicksand is dug by grave thieves, it can turn into a grave of their own. The quicksand traps system has been sophisticatedly “posted on the battlefield” as follows: When entering the Qin Mausoleum, tomb thieves will see “a trap”. Tomb theft will think that is the path leading to the treasure and try hard to dig. However, instead of the entrance to treasure, it was the burial ground of greedy people. Because the amount of sand in the trap will fall, burying strangers. The fourth trap: The fire trap Scenes like this will appear a lot in recent tomb theft novels, biogas and flammable substances appear in the aisle of the tomb, the tomb thief will be burned down the moment it opens. The same thing also appeared in the tomb of Tan Thuy Hoang. This shows that Qin Wang attaches great importance to his fall asleep. Fifth trap: Curse Although it is hard to believe, after the completion of the Qin mausoleum, it is said that if a person daring to touch the tomb of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum, harass the Qin King’s sleep, that person will be killed by thousands of terracotta warriors and war horses Frantic revenge mausoleum. Army image of nearly 10,000 human statues in the tomb of Tan Thuy Hoang. Is this the meaning of existence of thousands of terracotta warriors and war horses placed in giant tombs? After 3 large-scale archaeological discoveries, this army of nearly 10,000 soldiers was discovered in the tomb of the Qin King. All have the size and shape of ordinary people, especially, with completely different faces, no one resembles anyone. And historians always wondered, what does the meaning of the ten thousand soldiers in Qin Mausoleum mean? Does the curse that exists in Qin-mausoleum partly tell the meaning of this army? Even so, the curse is not easy to believe, but can scare the grave thieves. This method of using the curse is considered the most frightening and most haunting.

Sanxingdui site, known as “one of the most significant archaeological discoveries of mankind in the 20th century”, has been sleeping for three thousand years. Six sacrificial pits have been newly discovered, from which more than 500 golden masks and bronze trees have been unearthed. The splendid ancient Shu civilization that once disappeared in the long river of history has unveiled its veil layer by layer and displayed it in front of the world.

So why did the ancient Shu people in Sanxingdui smash, burn, or even bury these artifacts? There is a saying that for worship. People in the past paid great attention to their own affairs, especially princes and nobles, who paid particular attention to funerals. Sacrifice can best reflect the ancient funeral culture.

Taking the emperors of the past dynasties as an example, their tombs must not only choose “treasure places”, but also design cemetery buildings and “xiangsheng” honor guards in front of the tombs. Often, there are luxurious and strong underground palaces with luxurious burials.

Today, I will take you to see a museum of emperor’s tombs-Hanling Garden.

Han Ling Yuan, also known as the Museum of the Tomb of the Han Guang Ling King, is located in the east of the Shugang Scenic Area of ​​Slender West Lake in Yangzhou.

If you know the history, you will know that King Guangling of the Han Dynasty refers to Liu Xu, the son of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Liu Xu was awarded the title of Guangling and was the first king of Guangling. It is a pity that Emperor Wu always guarded Liu Xu during his lifetime. After Emperor Wu died, Liu Xu prayed to the gods and “blessed and cursed” Emperor Zhao, Emperor Changyi, and Emperor Xuan, and was forced to hang himself after failure.

After Liu Xu’s death, Emperor Han Xuan did not investigate his guilt too much. Because Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was actually Liu Xu’s grandson, he only gave him the posthumous title of King Li as a punishment, and did not deprive Liu Xu of the tomb level of King Guangling.

Liu Xu’s tomb is the Tianshan Han Tomb, originally located in Tianshan Township, Gaoyou City. The tomb of the queen and the tomb of the king of Guangling Liu Xu were unearthed one after another, and the distance between them was only 50 meters. The two tombs are juxtaposed, and they are the tombs of a married couple in the same tomb in different caves. After the excavation of the Tianshan Han tombs, the unearthed coffins and other cultural relics were relocated to Gaogang, Yangzhou for restoration and display, and the Han Tomb Garden was established, and the Queen’s Tomb was also relocated.

Let me first talk about the city of Yangzhou, it is really beautiful.

From the time when Emperor Yang of Sui built the Grand Canal to watch the Qionghua, the literati poems and songs have been written for the beauty of Yangzhou. It was also the excavation and connection of the Grand Canal in the Sui Dynasty that made Yangzhou the center of the cross of China’s east, west, south and north, and it was once very prosperous.

The long years and profound heritage have brought many precious wealth to Yangzhou.

The Slender West Lake, located in the northern suburbs of Yangzhou, is often regarded as a representative of Yangzhou. And just to the east of Slender West Lake, Hanling Garden stands tall, covering an area of ​​33,000 square meters. From a distance, the entire Hanling Garden has undulating terrain, lush forests and strong buildings. Moreover, it integrates cultural relics and gardens, reflecting the Han culture and human landscape of Yangzhou.

Walking into the Hanling Garden, the flowers bloom just right in the spring. The light pink begonia is like a cloud, dotted in front of the building. The quaint pavilions and splendid flowers set against each other and are very beautiful.

Under the blue sky, Chuisi Begonia stretched freely. Even the air seems to have a somewhat intoxicating fragrance.

The breeze blew across, blowing away the flowers, and raining petals of petals on the stone road. This is the unique tenderness in spring, enough to melt the mind of every passerby.

Li Bai said that the fireworks will go down to Yangzhou in March. He really did not deceive people.

Except for Chuisi Begonia, Magnolia also blooms very well.

Unlike the pink and shyness of Begonia, Magnolia is more like an outspoken female hero. The leaves have not yet grown, but the flowers are already in full bloom. A large, brilliant red flower that is beautifully pressed against the bald branches, with a unique and breathtaking charm.

The Hanling Garden, built on the top of the mountain, is magnificent. Looking up from the steps, it looks like an emperor’s tomb. Going up the stairs, there are Han-style buildings on both sides, with tall and open gates and rustic columns.

Walking into the main exhibition hall, the dome of more than 20 meters is particularly spectacular, and the underground tomb is a coffin. As the king of Guangling, Liu Xu still has a royal demeanor. The tomb in Hanlingyuan is very large, with an area of ​​more than 200 square meters.

In terms of the area of ​​Muzi, the Tianshan Han Tomb is 18 times larger than the Mawangdui Han Tomb in Hunan, and uses the funeral “Huangchang Ticu”, which represents the highest ritual in ancient times.

The so-called yellow bowel inscriptions refers to the special tomb system enjoyed by the emperors and princes of the Western Han Dynasty.

Inside the tomb, there are three-dimensional three-dimensional coffins and two coffins, 13 meters long from north to south, 11 meters long from east to west, and the walls are 4 meters high. The bottom of the coffin is made of nanmu that is more than 10 meters long. The most amazing thing is that the outermost coffin resembles a wall, the inner and outer layers are buckled with nanmu, and the middle is filled with cork. The cork wood is fitted with tenon and riveting, without iron nails, all embedded in a frame, integrated with the entire tomb, and closely connected. This kind of skill, even if you look at it today, is very shocking.

Because the wood faces the inside, the “head” is the “problem”; the “cou” is the “juye”, that is, the head is concentrated and introverted as the “problem”. The burial chamber of Hanling Garden shares more than 800 “Timing” roots, which are extremely precious. Compared with the ten “Yellow Intestines” tombs unearthed across the country, its large materials and strict structure are indeed shocking works, which can be called the best in the world.

And because the cork wood takes the inner core, it is named “Yellow Intestine”, which is the “Yellow Intestine Question Cou”.

According to the etiquette system of the Han Dynasty, the yellow intestine timo, along with the jade clothing, the catalpa palace, the toilet, and the outer coffin, belong to an important part of the emperor’s tomb. On the one hand, the use of “yellow bowel inscriptions” can indicate the identity and status of the owner of the tomb; on the other hand, it is also beneficial to protect the coffin from damage. I really have to admire the wisdom of predecessors.

Inside the coffin of “Yellow Intestines” are ear chambers for burial objects, which are connected and separated one by one. Each ear chamber has a door, and when a person walks in, it is as if he has entered a maze.

Although Liu Xu’s tomb was stolen and excavated on a large scale, a large number of cultural relics, such as silver, bronze, iron, and jade, were still unearthed, about a thousand pieces. Among them, a complete set of copper baths and weapons with hook shields are rare objects. It can be seen that the emperor in ancient times would not give up the opportunity to enjoy the glory and wealth even behind him.

The ladder used to rob the tomb is still in place.

You can see neatly arranged carts and horse sculptures in Hanling Garden. It is hard to imagine that after a thousand years have passed, these sculptures are still well-preserved and lifelike. It is not difficult to see the thick burial style of the Western Han Dynasty and the luxurious and luxurious court life.

There is a famous funerary in the Hanling Garden-a jade garment of gold thread.

The jade garment with golden thread was the highest standard funeral garment in the Han Dynasty, which appeared roughly in the Wenjing period of the Western Han Dynasty. Because people at that time, superstitious jade can keep the bones immortal, and jade is also a noble ritual and status symbol.

During the burial of emperors of the Han Dynasty, “golden jade garments” were used, which looked like a solid armor from the outside, connected by gold wires.

After walking through the Hanling Garden, you only feel that you are closer to Han culture, and closer to the once splendid Yangzhou City. I can’t help feeling that after seeing a lot of beautiful natural scenery, occasionally we have to take a humanities education class like this.
