It s 0202, why haven t you opened the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang yet?

It's 2020, and the main reasons why the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has not been opened are as follows:

First: the excavation project is huge.

The cemetery of Qin Shi Huang is very large, in fact, part of it has been excavated before, and the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses that we can see now are part of it. But this is only a small part, and the point is that the location of the main underground palace of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has not yet been excavated. It covers an area of more than 57 square kilometers.

The area of the Forbidden City is large enough, but the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is the size of 78 Forbidden Cities.

If you want to excavate the entire Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, it will cost a lot of manpower and material resources, and the archaeological team in China does not have this kind of strength at present.

Second: for the sake of protecting cultural relics.

The tomb of Qin Shi Huang is thousands of years old, and the cultural relics inside are particularly fragile when they come into contact with the air. If you are not careful during excavation, it is likely to lead to the destruction of valuable cultural relics. In fact, this situation has already occurred when a small part of the excavation was carried out before, so the excavation of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang will be stopped.

Now we see the terracotta warriors and horses are all gray, but the newly unearthed terracotta warriors and horses are actually colorful, but after excavation, can not be a good protection of cultural relics, the current technology can not meet the requirements of protection, so even if the excavation continues, there is no guarantee that the terracotta warriors and horses can be preserved well, so now we can only give up excavation. Only after the issue of conservation can be solved can the excavation continue.

Third: the investment in excavation engineering is too large.

Excavating the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang not only requires manpower and time, but also requires a lot of money, as well as later maintenance, which can cost tens of billions. And if you want to dig a little bit by one, it may not be completed for decades or even hundreds of years.

Because science and technology and means are not yet available, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is not actively excavated. Moreover, the construction of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang used hundreds of thousands of laborers and took decades. If you decide to excavate, then you must continue to invest huge human and financial resources for at least many years, otherwise it will be difficult to support it, and there are too many uncontrollable factors.

Even though it's 2020 now, there are still a lot of things in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang that can't be cracked by modern technology, such as the current science and technology of the mechanism in it may not be able to crack it, and at this time, not only can the Imperial Mausoleum not be opened, but it will hurt more scientific and technological personnel.

Should we wake up the underground kings after the founding of New China, there is an endless debate about whether to excavate the emperor's mausoleum, and the State Administration of Cultural Relics emphasizes "protection first" "Our attitude is very clear, that is, protection first.

In fact, the current technology is not impossible to open the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang. The reason why the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang was not opened was actually a protection measure for the ancient tombs. As long as the tomb is not opened, the artifacts inside can be preserved more well in a closed environment.

The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has not been opened for the following reasons:

First: The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang covers an area too large and lacks manpower.

In fact, the development of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is still very difficult, its area is too large, if you want to develop it now, it needs a lot of manpower and material resources. Otherwise, it may not be possible to complete the excavation for decades or even hundreds of years. However, China's archaeological industry is not popular now, so the manpower is limited, and the ancient tombs found in many places have not yet been excavated and cleaned.

If you develop blindly, it is obvious that the progress will be slow due to lack of manpower.

Second: The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang used a large amount of mercury to seal, and the excavation was very dangerous.

According to historical records, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang used hundreds of tons of mercury when it was sealed, which in addition to preventing theft, it could actually keep the body from decaying. Later, when the researchers were probing, they did find that there was a mercury anomaly in the land near the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang. Therefore, researchers believe that the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang did use a large amount of mercury, and if it was opened at this time, the excavators would easily be poisoned by mercury during the development, and in order to maintain the safety of scientific researchers, the mausoleum could not be opened blindly.

Third: I am worried that the current level is limited and I can't preserve the cultural relics well.

In fact, the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses have been part of the excavation of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, but at that time, due to the blindness of scientific researchers, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses were excavated and could not be well preserved. Originally, the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses that had just been excavated were colored, but when they were stored in the air for a period of time, the color of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses faded and became the earth gray that people see now, which is a huge loss of cultural relics, and now researchers have not found a way to preserve the Terracotta Warriors, so if they continue to excavate, they will only cause more damage to cultural relics.

In addition to the terracotta warriors and horses, there are many precious cultural relics in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, if they are not excavated at the time of 100% certainty, then the calligraphy, painting, books and other treasures are likely to be destroyed at the moment of unearthing, which is a very big loss for historical research.

Qin died in 206 BC, and more than 2,200 years have passed. One can imagine how many tomb robbers tried to steal the treasures of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang over the course of more than 2,000 years, but the end result was the same, that is, to become the burial goods of the First Emperor.

Why not excavate wantonly is mainly due to these factors.

First: the excavation technology is not perfectIt is recorded in the "Historical Records" that the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang made a river of mercury, and the coffin of Qin Shi Huang floated on this mercury river. Today's detection reality, the mercury anomaly in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang coincides with a large amount of mercury in the Imperial Mausoleum, and also confirms the authenticity of the "Historical Records" from the side.

Second, the improvement of protective measures. If the underground cultural relics are buried for too long, if they are not effectively protected, the result will be like terracotta warriors, the color will be lost, and the cultural relics will be tragically destroyed.

This is an extremely profound lesson in the history of our country.

When excavating Dingling, the precious calligraphy and paintings unearthed from the tomb of Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty suffered huge losses due to lack of protection, and the mausoleum of hundreds of years is still like this, not to mention the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang that spans thousands of years, if you are not careful, these precious historical relics may suffer a blow to destruction.

Therefore, in order to better protect cultural relics, China has adopted a policy of protective excavation, except for the discovery of robbery holes and tomb collapses, etc., will not take the initiative to excavate mausoleums.

Third, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is too large and difficult to excavate. We can basically conclude that the burial place of Qin Shi Huang is Lishan, and the terracotta warriors and horses are used as burial pits, and the distance between them and the main tomb is more than 20 miles, and it can be seen that there are dozens of kilometers around Lishan There are also Qin Shi Huang's burial pits.

Fourth, the historical materials of the Qin Dynasty are perfect, and there is little need for physical evidence. Another important role of excavating the mausoleum is to verify the authenticity of history, and we also mentioned earlier that the records in the "Historical Records" are consistent with the on-site survey, which also confirms the accuracy of the historical materials from the side, and there is no need for large-scale excavation to physically prove the history.

There may be a certain mechanism in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, but the real reason why it is not opened is that the mausoleum contains a large amount of mercury, which is now what we now call mercury, which is very toxic, so there is no ability and technology to open the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang at present.

Studies have proved that there are a lot of mercury substances inside the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, which are highly toxic, and the mercury element in the plants of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is seriously exceeded.

Personally, I hope that it is better to never open the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, but speaking of why the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has been discovered a long time ago, and it has not been opened until now, one is because of technical problems, because I want to completely excavate the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang and not destroy it, there is no such technology now, and the country may not have the idea of excavating the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, so it is better for the ancients to sleep quietly.

Because there were many mechanisms arranged during the construction of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, and the tomb of Qin Shi Huang was filled with mercury all around, it was very difficult to open, so the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has not been opened so far.

Because the time of Qin Shi Huang is a long time ago, the mausoleum is filled with gaseous mercury, and if there is a sudden rush of fresh air, it may occur** or other adverse effects on archaeology.

Personal opinion, not because of the heavy organs so not opened, since the founding of the People's Republic of China according to the failure of the archaeological excavation of the tomb of Marquis Zeng Hou B, there are no excavation conditions, before the founding of the People's Republic of China around the analysis of the cave situation, many officials and people in history have not succeeded in opening any tomb.

The reason why the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has not been opened is mainly because it contains a lot of toxic substances, and it is very dangerous.

It should be, as far as I know, there is a saying that the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is covered with mercury, and it would be very dangerous if it was opened rashly.

Because the tens of thousands of cultural relics in the tombs in the imperial tombs have formed a stable equilibrium after thousands of years, once the cultural relics are not protected, the losses caused are incalculable.

Because, Qin Shi Huang is still alive. Also texted me the other day.

Because the current science and technology cannot guarantee the effective protection of the cultural relics in the entire imperial tomb, it has not been opened.

Because the gap between the environment inside the tomb and the outside of the tomb is particularly large, after thousands of years of precipitation, the tomb is almost vacuum, once the cultural relics are discovered, unless you immediately give a exactly the same vacuum environment, otherwise the things found will be oxidized immediately, which has a lesson from the past. Any kind of excavation of underground cultural relics will inevitably cause some degree of damage or damage to the cultural relics.

First of all, the anti-theft measures of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang were very perfect, and according to legend, a large amount of mercury was poured to seal the soil. In addition, the imperial mausoleum tomb is a very large-scale group, and if there is no perfect strategy, it is definitely not easy to open it rashly.

The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang covers an area of square kilometers, which is about the size of a county seat. If excavations are to be carried out, at least a large museum will be built to store the artifacts, which will undoubtedly cost a lot of manpower and financial resources. From another point of view, it has been more than 2,000 years since the mausoleum was built, and the world has been divided many times.

Various dynasties are constantly updated and iterated, and there are not a few people who are interested in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang. But why hasn't the mausoleum been destroyed until now?

<> another reason, which was later confirmed by archaeologists, was the presence of large amounts of mercury in the tombs of the emperors. Mercury is known to be a harmful substance and is the main component of mercury. However, in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, there is a sealing layer formed by mercury.

How to break through this sealing layer is an unsolved technical problem. If people's health is compromised by excavating the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, the gains may outweigh the losses.

But so far, the country has not found Qin Shi Huang, the main reason is that the state excavated the Dingling Tomb in 1956-1957, but due to the development of science and technology, the excavated Dingling cultural relics can not be well preserved and soon weathered, and later it is lower than the national regulations and all the imperial tombs are stopped. According to research, the underground palace of Qin Shi Huang covers an area of square kilometers, which is equivalent to the area of nearly 80 imperial palaces. It was a huge undertaking to excavate and protect such a large underground palace.

Do a detailed explanation of the problem for a detailed interpretation of the problem, I hope it will help you, if you have any questions, you can leave me a message in the comment area, you can comment with me a lot, if there is something wrong, you can also interact with me more, if you like the author, you can also follow me, your like is the biggest help to me, thank you. That's all for sharing, if you like me, please follow me. If you guys have any ideas, you can let us know in the comments below.

Because the difficulty of flower arrangement will be relatively large, and the current protection technology is also limited, even if it is dug out, it can not be well protected the cultural relics inside, and secondly, the area of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is very large, this will be a very huge archaeological project, and it must wait until the technology is fully mature to excavate.

I think the main reason for not excavating is that the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is surrounded by a circle of water and the Milky Way, if the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is opened rashly, the mercury will be quickly emitted in the air, which will have a serious impact on the surrounding residents, and even cause mercury poisoning to these residents, which will have a very serious impact on their bodies.

In fact, the discovery of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang can uncover many mysteries of the Qin Dynasty. In the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, a large number of burial pits and tombs with different shapes and connotations have been found, including the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, the eighth wonder of the world. The reason why the country has not excavated is that in addition to the shocking story of Qin Shi Huang, there is also the reason that the technology for the protection of culture is not mature.

Perhaps, in the near future, we will be able to see the truth inside the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang.

The reason why Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum cannot be opened, the first point: because there is a large amount of mercury and hidden weapons in the tomb, if Qin Shi Huang and the objects close to the mausoleum are opened, they will be melted and will cause damage to the terracotta warriors and the mausoleum The second point: because China does not have such a big technology to open the mausoleum.

But one day, with the development of technology, the mausoleum will definitely be opened.
