    The discovery of the Hemudu site has rewritten the history of prehistoric civilization in Zhejiang and even in the Yangtze River Basin.

    In the summer of 1973, the local people of Yuyao discovered some pottery shards during the construction of water conservancy, thus discovering this site with a total area of 40,000 square meters, a cultural accumulation layer of 4 meters thick, and four cultural layers superimposed on top of each other. According to the determination, the age of the fourth cultural layer of the site is about 7,000 years ago. Its discovery convincingly proves that the Yangtze River Basin, like the Yellow River Basin, is the cradle of the ancient civilization of the Chinese nation.

    A period of clouds and rain in Wushan rewrote the history of Asian civilization.

    As early as 1985, the archaeological team led by Professor Huang Wanbo of the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences found an ancient human incisor and a mandible in the keel slope of Longping Village, Miaoyu Town, Wushan County, and unearthed giant apes and more than 100 kinds of vertebrate fossils at the same time as human fossils, this discovery immediately shocked the world.

    The large number of stone tools we have found proves that China's prehistoric civilization can be pushed back nearly another 1 million years. As for whether the "Wushan Man" is an ape or a man, we can only wait for more evidence to appear to prove ......

    Are you talking about the ruins of the palace of the Liangzhu culture discovered in Yuhang, Zhejiang Province last year?

    Some experts say that the appearance of that palace may have rewritten China's Chinese civilization that began with the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Xia, Shang and Zhou, because the Liangzhu culture was one of the two famous jade cultures of the Neolithic Age, so once the Liangzhu culture became the Liangzhu Dynasty, history will be rewritten.

    What is surprising is that before the palace ruins were discovered a few years ago, Cai Jun's work "Return from the Deserted Village" mentioned that Liangzhu culture was the beginning of Chinese civilization (although it was only fiction, it was possible"The prophecy came true")

    The existence of prehistoric culture can't rewrite the current history.

    There's no logic to your question.

    I personally believe that there should be a prehistoric civilization.

    Because some of the things found in archaeology now have a high technological content, even higher than the current ones.

    The Yellow River is the mother river of the Chinese nation, and the Yellow River basin has been regarded as the cradle of Chinese civilization since ancient times. The historical facts of the successive dynasties in the Yellow River Basin are as follows: the Xia Dynasty set the capital Yangcheng (now Dengfeng, Henan), the Shang Dynasty set the capital in Bo (now Shangqiu, Henan), and later moved the capital to Yin (now Anyang, Henan), the Zhou Dynasty set the capital in Haojing (now Xi'an, Shaanxi), the Qin Dynasty set the capital in Xianyang, the Western Han Dynasty set the capital in Chang'an (now Xi'an, Shaanxi), the Eastern Han Dynasty set the capital in Luoyang, the Wei and Jin dynasties all set the capital in Luoyang, the Sui and Tang dynasties all set the capital in Chang'an (now Xi'an, Shaanxi), and the Song Dynasty set the capital in Tokyo (now Kaifeng, Henan).

    It was found in Dagou Bay, Wushen Banner, Inner Mongolia, about 30,000 years ago.

    Modern man is a direct evolution of new man and is divided into 4 stages:

    Microlithic culture.

    10,000 years ago 7,000 years ago, cultural sites of this era were found in many places on the Loess Plateau, such as Dali Shayuan in Shaanxi, Qinshui River in Shanxi and other places.

    Neolithic culture.

    7000 years ago 3700 years, according to the representative development stage is divided into early, middle and late three periods: the early called Yangshao culture, 7000 years ago 5000 years ago, found in Yangshao Village, Mianchi County, Henan; In the middle period, it was called Longshan culture, which was found in Longshan Town, Zhangqiu County, Shandong Province from 5000 years ago to 4100 years; In the late period, it was called Erlitou culture, 4100 years ago 3700 years, and was first found in Yanshi Erlitou, Henan, which was a cultural site of the Xia Dynasty.

    Bronze culture.

    3700 years ago 2700 years, can be divided into three periods: 1 is the Erligang culture, that is, the Zhengzhou ** culture, 3620 years ago, for the early Shang Dynasty culture. 2 is the Yinxu culture, that is, the culture of Xiaotun Village in Anyang, Henan, roughly in the 14th century BC and the 11th century BC, which is the late Shang Dynasty culture; 3 is the Qishan culture, that is, the cultural site of the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty in Fengyan Village, Qishan, Shaanxi.

    Iron culture. Appeared in the early Spring and Autumn Period of 770 B.C., the Spring and Autumn Cast Iron Ruins found in Cangcheng, Xinzheng, Henan, the Warring States Tomb Ruins found in Guwei Village, Weihui City, Henan, and the cultural ruins of the Sui and Tang Capitals of Xi'an found around Xi'an.

    According to the continuous discovery of scientists, prehistoric civilization should exist, because archaeologists in the continuous archaeological certification process, the middle layer found prehistoric civilization-related buildings, as well as documents, etc., so that prehistoric civilization should exist, and it is possible that part of the prehistoric civilization has been covered or destroyed because of the change of the earth's environment, but, according to the research of scientists, prehistoric civilization should be real.

    With the advancement of archaeology, there are almost every moment in the world that have discovered unknown secrets from underground, and of course, there are many excavated historical materials that will overturn existing theories or established facts. Even the excavation of some materials or objects will overturn people's perception of history, so what are the specific examples of these typical archaeological discoveries?

    First, the unearthing of Zeng Houyi's bell completely rewrote the history of our country.

    Originally, we thought that the Chinese seven-tone scale came from Europe, and this statement was generally accepted by the Chinese. However, with the unearthing of the Zeng Houyi chime, it not only proves that China's casting art has developed to a relatively high level in the Warring States Period, but also proves that China's ** culture has also been greatly developed during the Warring States Period, which is nearly 2,000 years earlier than the appearance of European keyboard instruments. The most important thing is that the excavation of this object filled the gap in the field of early feudal society in China and completely rewrote the history of our country.

    Second, the excavation of Blackwater City has given people a glimpse of the mysterious Western Xia script.

    In 1908, the Russians discovered a treasure in the city of Heishui in northwest China, which resembled an underground library and was estimated to have been buried underground for 800 years. This library contains not only unfamiliar words, but also exquisite Buddha statues, gorgeous paintings, and even many or countless literature and classics. It is precisely because of the excavation of the Western Xia ruins of Blackwater City that people have found this lost civilization.

    Third, Afang Palace is an unfinished building.

    Originally, it was widely believed that Afang Palace was burned by Xiang Yu at that time, and this has become the basic consensus of people. However, after the research of the Shaanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology on the Afang Palace, it was found that there was no red soil burned by fire on the soil layer of the Afang Palace, which shows that the Afang Palace was not burned by fire. And after combining the evidence from all sides, people found that a Fang Palace was just an unfinished building, and it had only just begun to be built.

    Among them is the discovery of the bell of Zeng Hou Yi. Its excavation shows that as early as the Warring States Period, China's ** culture and casting technology has developed to a very high level, it is nearly 2000 years earlier than the emergence of the European 12 equal law keyboard instruments, and at the same time fills the gap in the history of China's early feudal period, which plays an important role in the study of China's slave society, early feudal society and the ** culture of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Completely rewrite the history of our country, according to the so-called "China's seven-tone scale is from Europe" said.

    China's city building history is the second longest, second only to the ancient city of Daxi culture 4000 years ago, the ruins of Fengcheng in Jiangxi Province are not in the eight major areas of the Neolithic Age in China, but in Jiangxi, but because of the late discovery did not enter the scope of the active excavation of the source exploration project, if there are further discoveries in the future, it is likely to rewrite the history of the late Neolithic period in southern China. Jiangxi Fengcheng discovered the ruins of the city construction 5,500 years ago, and the history of Jiangxi city construction has been advanced by 1,000 years.

    Note that archaeology proposes prehistoric cultures, not prehistoric civilizations.

    The so-called prehistory refers to the history of mankind before there is a written history, and it should not be considered a civilization, because although the conditions for entering civilization are not determined, they are generally related to writing, city sites, etc. The existing archaeological data is not sufficient to verify it. For example:

    Although there was a city in the Longshan period, whether there was a written text or not, and the relationship with the legend of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors has not been well confirmed.

    As for those mysterious civilizations, I haven't seen them in professional archaeological magazines anyway. Mostly seen on news programs!

    Prehistory is prehistory, and its counterpart is history - the period of history that is documented is the historical period, and the stages of human development before the historical period are called the prehistoric period, therefore, the prehistoric period is much longer than the historical period.

    The object of study of history is literature, which is not found in prehistory; The object of archaeology is the study of physical objects, regardless of the era, so archaeology is the most important means of studying the prehistoric period.

    Prehistoric civilization is human civilization in the prehistoric period, and the academic community has always been ** on the definition criteria for human beings entering the civilization period, and there is no conclusion on what human history before civilization should be called, it used to be called the barbaric era, etc., and now it is considered to be an inappropriate and unscientific name. At present, the main views on the criteria for entering the era of civilization in China are: the emergence of writing, the establishment of cities, etc.

    1.It is believed that the tomb of the king of Zhou is confirmed by archaeology to be the tomb of the king of Qin.

    In the north of Xianyang City, there are two ancient tombs in the north and south, according to legend, the south is the tomb of King Wen of Zhou, and the north is the tomb of King Wu of Zhou. In front of the tomb, there are more than 40 steles erected by Bi Yuan in the Qing Dynasty and the stone steles erected by the Ming and Qing dynasties. So are they the real tombs of the Zhou kings?

    In fact, the archaeological results proved that the legend was wrong, and the tomb of King Zhou was actually the tomb of King Qin in the late Warring States period.

    2.Afang Palace.

    The Shaanxi Institute of Archaeology, the field archaeology of Afang Palace, found that on the rammed earth layer of Afang Palace, the red soil that was burned by fire could not be found at all. This proves that the Afang Palace was not burned by fire. At that time, the captain of the archaeological team did not dare to announce the results, and the burning of Afang Palace had basically become a consensus.

    In the end, the whole field archaeology ended, combined with various evidence, Afang Palace is an unfinished building, just built, there is no such thing as being burned. "Chu people are a moment, poor scorched earth" is just the imagination of our later generations.

    3.Zeng, Sui is the same country.

    According to the Wuhan Xinhua News Agency's archaeological excavations of cultural relics in Suizhou in recent years, several important inscriptions have been found one after another, among which the inscriptions of more than 180 characters on the bell of Zeng Hou Xuan clearly show that Zeng and Sui are the same country. Successfully solved the 'Zeng Sui Mystery' that has plagued the historiography for 36 years.

    4.The excavation of "Sun Bin Art of War".

    Historians have long believed that Sun Bin and Sun Tzu may be the same person. Except for the historical records, there are no works about Sun Bin that can be seen. There are also people who think that "Sun Bin's Art of War" is actually "Sun Tzu's Art of War".

    However, after the excavation of "Sun Bin's Art of War", it was determined that the two people and the two books existed completely separately.

    The legendary tombs of the Zhou kings are archaeologically confirmed to be the tombs of the Qin kings But are they the real tombs of the Zhou kings? The archaeological results prove that the legend is wrong, and the Zhou Tomb is actually the tomb of the Qin King in the late Warring States period. So where is the tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty?

    It's still a mystery. Some say that it is near Guodu in Xi'an, and some say that it is near Zhougong Temple, but there is no conclusion so far.

1. Archaeology has no physical requirements, but you must at least be a normal person with sound limbs ......But in fact, archaeology can't be colorblind or color-weak, because if you want to paint relics, this shouldn't be considered a physical requirement......Field archaeology is indeed not suitable for women, but if you go to Peking University or some better universities to study archaeology, there may be internships within four years, such as Jida University, internships are necessary, whether you study archaeology or museums. The work of the museum is relatively suitable for girls, and the cultural preservation is fine, but the premise is that you should be better at chemistry and other sciences, but I think LZ seems to be not good in this regard......For field archaeology, it's actually not as hard as you think, and it's a pain point for girls who grew up in the city, but children from ordinary families can bear it. >>>More
