Do you know what a clay pot grave is? What is an ancient funerary clay pot tomb ?

The clay pot tomb is a feudal custom in ancient times. When his parents were over 50 years old, they would put their mother in a grave made of bricks, and they would slowly bury their parents alive every day. This feudal custom was terrible, but it was no longer there.

The clay pot grave is a bad habit in the old society, when the old man at home is old, he will build a clay pot house, and seal it with green bricks, only send one meal a day, and add a green brick, and when the green brick is sealed, the old man is sealed in the clay pot tomb.

A clay pot grave is a place where children place their parents in a crockpot-like house set up outside the village, deliver food once a day, and fill the door of the house with a brick until the door is sealed with a brick lock, which is equivalent to burying their parents, because it looks like a clay pot from a distance, so it is called a clay pot grave.

In fact, they are all buried in the ground at first, but generally the corpse will decompose after three years, so at this time, the bones are stored in a clay pot to let it be stored longer.

The human head was stuffed into an earthen pot for burial. In ancient times, emperors and princes would put the heads of defeated enemies in clay pots, burn them, and then cut off their heads for burial.

A clay pot tomb is a grave that resembles a clay pot, and this type of grave is reserved for the elderly over 60 years old. When the parents reached the age of 60, whether the parents were sick or not, the children would dig a hole similar to a clay pot in the nearby mountain, and then carry the parents to the mountain, put them in the hole, and then deliver food every day, and a brick was needed to deliver a meal, until the hole was closed, no more food was delivered, and the old man starved to death in the grave.

It is a folklore that refers to the custom of burying an old man alive. But so far this legend has not been confirmed.

The clay pot grave refers to the old mothers of the family in the ancient feudal dynasties, who would be placed in a dug grave by their children after reaching the age of 60. And these children would bring them a meal every day, and at each meal they would take a tile and build a grave, until the grave was formed, and they would not have to deliver food. Such feudal customs and ideas that have lost their conscience.

If it is really implemented, I believe it will be spurned by most people. However, it remains to be seen whether such a large-scale atmosphere has been formed in society in history. Seeing this, I believe that many people feel lucky to be born in such an era, and we can have no worries about food and clothing, all thanks to the hard work of our party.

The so-called "clay pot tomb" is to dig a one-person sized tomb in the ground first, and then build stone bricks on three sides, leaving only one exit, because it resembles a "clay pot", so it is named "clay pot tomb". Due to feudal superstition and low productivity, the elderly in the village were regarded as "superfluous" or "useless" because of their old age, and in order to save food rations and avoid "waste" of resources, there was a provision for the elderly over 60 years old to be sent to the "clay pot grave".

This is a funeral ritual of the ancients, where the bones of people were picked up and buried in clay pots after death, and this funeral custom can be traced back to ancient times, such as the Hongshan culture.

This is in the past, when the elderly were about to die, the children dug a hole for the old man and then sealed it with green bricks, which is against human nature, so it is not advocated now.

It is a house the size of a clay pot built of green bricks, leaving only one mouth for the elderly to eat, because this practice is too inhumane, so there is no longer it.

It is a clay pot house built by the children when the elderly at home are dying, sealed with green bricks, leaving only one mouth for the elderly to eat. Because this method is too cruel and unfilial, it is gone.

It is to dig a cave in the mountain wall or bushes that can accommodate the size of a person. This is an extremely inhumane method of treating the elderly who are over the age of six.

Have you ever heard the story of the "crockpot grave"? In the area of Sichuan, there has always been a terrifying folk custom. In rural areas, they pay attention to "living children and grandchildren".

It means that if the old people in the family live for a long time, their children and grandchildren are dead, and the old people are still very spiritual, that is the life of their children and grandchildren. There is also a saying that the longer the life of an old man, the shorter the life span of his children and grandchildren, or it affects the fortune of his children and grandchildren.

Some young people deliberately leave the elderly in their homes behind when they move their homes. This is very unacceptable, and it is a habit of their horrible folklore. Thus gradually evolved into the custom of clay pot graves, in which children placed their parents in a crockpot-like house set up outside the village, delivered food once a day, and filled the door of the house with a brick until the door was locked and sealed after a few hundred days, which was equivalent to burying their parents and watching them leave, and in their eyes, people must die if they have lived to a certain age.

In ancient times, the emperor ordered that the old man was useless, and ordered that all the elderly who reached the age of 60 must be put to death, and many children thought that burying their parents with their own hands was a sign of filial piety to them, so the custom of clay pot graves appeared.

Although there is no record of clay pot graves in official records, there are many records of clay pot graves in many ancient literary works, so they cannot help but become a well-known story in the world. Originally, I didn't believe in the story of the crockpot tomb, because we China has always adhered to Confucianism, and the so-called filial piety is an important thing in our Confucianism, so how could such a thing that violates filial piety happen in ancient China?

However, many archaeologists in China's Sichuan and Hubei regions have found a large number of tombs in the shape of clay pots used for worship in ancient times, and they can't help but record the fact that there were clay pot tombs in ancient China. The ancient feudal ideology immersed the human beings at that time, and this bad habit also existed for a short time in history.
