What does Cao Cao s appearance look like after DNA restoration?

History is a subject that many people have a headache because we have to remember the stories that happened in a particular time and place. If you don't pay attention to it in the history exam, you will become a "sinner for the ages" who falsifies history. The reason why people are so interested in this period of disappearing history in ancient times is that in ancient times, there were no cameras, no high-tech equipment to record the experiences of the ancients.

There are even fewer traces of these disappearing histories left on the earth, and some celebrities can only paint their appearance into a picture by hand. There are still some discrepancies between the paintings and the real appearance of each person, so what we see now is not the real appearance of each person.

Therefore, scientists have tried all kinds of methods, hoping to restore this history of disappearance on the earth through various high-tech technologies. I want to know what the gap between the ancients and the modern people is. So relying on the current DNA repair technology, can we restore the true appearance of the ancients?

In 2014, China's criminal physiognomy experts used high-tech restoration technology to restore the general appearance of Mrs. Xin Chai. At the same time, there is also a generation of heroes Cao Cao in the Three Kingdoms period of our country.

Cao Cao can be said to be a character through the ages, and there are many stories about Cao Cao in real life, one of Lin Junjie's songs is named after "Cao Cao", and there is such a proverb in life that Cao Cao Cao arrived. Because the era is too old, and there is no high-tech equipment, so his appearance has been an unsolved mystery, physiognomy experts can restore Cao Cao's true appearance through some high-tech technology, so that we have a better understanding of this lost history.

<> don't underestimate this painting, there are still many fields involved in his appearance restoration, genetics, archaeology, philology, anthropology and other disciplines have worked together to draw such a painting of Cao Cao. In the future, we can also restore more historical figures through this technology, and show us this glorious era that has disappeared in history.

In the face of the emergence of this technology, many people have also put forward different opinions, what did the ancients really look like? No one knows, so the subjective factors of this painting occupy too much, and it is also very arbitrary. So many netizens think that if this is the case, then I can also restore the appearance of the ancients, anyway, no one knows what they look like, just draw it.

What do you think of this Cao Cao's appearance?

DNA restores Cao Cao's true appearance, staring at it for a while, my heart is numb, a generation of heroes is indeed not an ordinary person.

I think it's a lot worse than the image of an actor, and it will be very similar to what is recorded in history, and now the DNA technology is very mature.

After DNA restoration, Cao Cao grew a very hideous face, which was a very scary appearance.

Cao Cao, the word Mengde, the small character Apu, Peiguo Qian County (now Bozhou, Anhui) people. He was an outstanding politician, military strategist, writer, calligrapher in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the founder of the Wei regime during the Three Kingdoms period, and a generation of heroes.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, Cao Cao conquered the Quartet in the name of Liu Xie, the son of heaven in the Han Dynasty, and eliminated the separatist forces such as Eryuan, Lü Bu, Liu Biao, Ma Chao, and Han Sui internally, and subdued the Southern Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Xianbei, etc., unified northern China, and implemented a series of policies to restore economic production and social order, expand tuntian, build water conservancy, reward agriculture, attach importance to handicrafts, resettle the exiled population, and implement "rent regulation", so that the Central Plains society gradually stabilized and the economy took a turnaround.

In the eighteenth year of Jian'an (213), Cao Cao was awarded the title of Duke of Wei, established the Duchy of Wei, set the capital of Yecheng, Hebei, and then entered the King of Wei. After his death, he replied with leniency, and his son Cao Pi was called the emperor, and Cao Cao was posthumously honored as the martial emperor, and the temple name was Taizu.

Cao Cao in the Three Kingdoms has our impression of being suspicious, cunning, vicious, and good at acting. But is Cao Cao in history really as described in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms? What is the real appearance of a generation of heroes?

Commenting on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, "Cao Cao is more than seven feet, with black eyebrows and fine eyes, white face and long beard", and Sun Sheng's "Wei's Spring and Autumn Period" describes "King Wu's short appearance, and the gods are heroic", admitting that Cao Cao is not good-looking, but his temperament is very good. Cao Cao's actor Bao Guoan said that he once searched through the literature to find Cao Cao's appearance: "It is not easy to find such a few sentences:

Cao Cao is not tall, and the male is full of masculine." What is the appearance of this generation of heroes who are not tall and have an extraordinary temperament?

According to the information provided by anthropologists and historians, combined with the physiognomy characteristics of the Central Plains people before 1800, the description of Cao Cao's physiognomy in the literature, the analysis of the DNA of Cao Cao's nine descendants by geneticists, and the analysis of the facial features of thousands of descendants of Cao Cao's nine descendants, it was reversed.

Now people are very curious to know what the "generation of heroes" Cao Cao looks like, so that future generations can continue to talk about him to this day. After hard work, the experts used modern advanced science and technology to finally restore Cao Cao's appearance. Scientists explain that Cao Cao has three characteristics, one is that the eyebrows are relatively scattered, the bridge of the nose is slightly raised upward, but the forehead is tilted.

After restoring the picture**, Cao Cao's domineering appearance suddenly attracted the attention of the melon-eating masses, and netizens said: "It is worthy of a generation of heroes."

The explanation on the news is that even if you have a DNA test, you can't necessarily confirm that it's Cao Cao's bones. They all think that this is Cao Cao's tomb because the characteristics in the cemetery are very close to the historical facts. Excerpt from the news:

What evidence does it prove that this bone is Cao Cao's? At present, is there such a means in my country, where the bones can be measured by looking at the bones, the specific age, and who is he? The experts' answer is that the first two are fine, but not who he is.

Wang Zongli, a teacher at Lanzhou University, said that the year of the tomb owner's death can be known by using the luminescence dating method. "We can take clothing, hair, or bones that contain carbon, and use the carbon-14 method to know the age of the deceased. By judging the age of death, it is possible to know which dynasty the tomb owner was.

The error is only about 40 years. Wang Zongli said that if the bones in the tomb are taken for testing, it can indeed be tested to determine which dynasty the owner of the tomb is. Puyang Kangjing, a cultural relics expert in Nanjing, said that the age of the tomb owner can be seen by looking at the attachment points of the muscles on the pelvis, teeth and bones, whether it is a man or a woman, and the age gap is only about two or three years.

Liu Chiping, a criminal investigation expert from the Jiangsu Provincial Public Security Department, had just returned from handling the case in Anyang, Henan Province, and had wanted to go to the field to see it when he was in Anyang, but he failed to do so due to a rush of time. "Is it possible to conclude that the bones are Cao Cao's? "Surely it can't be!

Liu Chiping told reporters that there are currently two ways to determine the owner of the bones. The first is to "restore the portrait according to the skull, and then compare it with ** and other objects." He said that this technology is already very mature in forensic investigation and is often used in the field of archaeology.

In 2007, the skull of the Sanxing Village site in Jintan was restored by experts from the Ministry of Public Security, which allowed Jiangsu people to see their ancestors 6,000 years ago. But this tomb in Anyang, "even if the portrait is restored, what do you use to compare?" We can use ** to handle cases now, but in Cao Cao's era, where did ** come from?

The reporter asked if he could compare the portrait of Cao Cao in history, and he said that the portrait was not authentic after all, not direct evidence, and could not be compared, "Wang Zhaojun was also scandalized by the painter back then." What about the other way? "Judging by DNA".

Liu Chiping told reporters that this requires finding DNA on the bones first, and then comparing it with the DNA of Cao Cao's descendants. "Cao Cao's descendants can be found, but even if the outer chromosomes of the DNA of the two are the same, we can't tell that this is Cao Cao. After all, it has been dozens of generations, and at most it can be concluded that this is the ancestor of the descendants of the Cao family. ”

It has not been determined whether it is the tomb of Cao Cao or not.

Historical data show that due to the simplicity of the funeral, the sacrificial hall on Cao Cao's tomb was destroyed within a few years. There are no gold and jade artifacts with the burial, and they are not valued by tomb robbers, plus there is no earth to build a mausoleum, no trees are planted, and after several dynasties, no one knows where Cao Cao's tomb is. To the Tang Dynasty, people did not have any doubts about the location of Cao Cao's tomb, Tang Taizong Li Shimin once made a sacrifice for Cao Cao's tomb, but from the Northern Song Dynasty, although the location of Cao Cao's tomb is recorded in the history books, but in reality, no one knows the location of Cao Cao's tomb.

After the news of the discovery and confirmation of Cao Cao's tomb came out, it caused a lot of doubts among various professionals and ordinary people. The discovery and confirmation of Cao Cao's tomb is the work of official and professional archaeological institutions, and there is no doubt about its authority; Most of the people who raised questions were experts with profound attainments in various fields such as history, paleography, archaeology, and ancient literature, and the basis for questioning was very precise. Looking at the doubts from all sides, the vast majority of people agree that the age of the Xigaoxue Tomb is located in the late Eastern Han Dynasty or the Cao Wei period, which is relatively large, and the owner of the tomb should be closely related to the ancient Yecheng.

The above three points are not very controversial. But more than 80 percent of skeptics disagree that the tomb owner is Cao Cao.

It is inferred that it is Cao Cao through the words dedicated to King Wu of Wei, because Cao Cao was the king in front of him, and his son Cao Pi was posthumously crowned emperor after his death.

There is no DNA of Cao Cao in reality!! Only the items in his tomb can be inferred that he is Cao Cao.

Probably not! Today's news says that it is based on various materials that prove that it is Cao Cao's bones.

Today's historians can use some very advanced technology to restore Cao Cao's appearance, according to the restored appearance, Cao Cao's appearance is indeed very ordinary, but perhaps because of his identity, he has a majesty that others can't match, so many people will feel very nervous when they look at his album for a long time.

The current repair technology is very powerful, and Cao Cao's appearance can also be restored, but it is also because of the machine synthesis, which will be very awkward after watching for a long time, and it will also make people feel bad.
