Chapter 403
"The reason why we are sure is that it is the ancient Huaxu Kingdom, so there is naturally direct evidence..."
At this time, Professor Chen's face was filled with red light, as if he was a teenager. He looked around and waved his hand in the scorching eyes of everyone, "Bring the things up..."
What would it be?
Under the gaze of everyone, three or four young men were carrying something up behind the rostrum. It seemed that the thing was quite heavy, and it took a few young and strong men to move it over.
Everyone was curious and couldn't help but take two photos.
Dong!
After a while, things were placed on the stage and there was a dull sound.
Now everyone is even more curious.
Unfortunately, there was also a layer of cloth covering the things.
Everyone's eyes cannot see through, so they naturally cannot see through what is under the thick cloth.
When everyone was eager to urge them.
Professor Chen pulled it straight away.
Thick cloth flying...
Everyone looked at it and made a surprise sound.
This is……
A stone slab.
Made of large bluestone, hard and heavy.
Three meters long, two meters wide, and more than twenty centimeters thick.
Such materials are often used in temples, temples, temples and cemeteries to serve as stone tablets.
The problem is, the slab is... gray and nothing is there.
Everyone was stunned...
Before they could question it, Professor Chen smiled and waved again.
At this time, a man next to him handed over a towel, the towel soaked in water was wet.
Professor Chen took the wet towel and gently wiped it on the stone slab. At this moment, everyone concentrated and could see that some light carvings appeared on the flat stone slab.
"……ah!"
Someone was sharp-eyed and immediately shouted: "Patterns, so many patterns."
The others rolled their eyes, but they were not blind, so they could see clearly. They saw that the stone slabs were soaked in wet water, and a very neat and dense pattern appeared.
Professor Chen kept wiping, and the patterns on the stone slabs were getting more and more.
There are still people who see more clearly.
They were surprised to find that there were some... circles on a large stone slab.
The perfect circle, the half moon, and the crescent-like figures.
……etc.
In an instant, someone suddenly realized and said in surprise: "This is... a chart of the moon changes. From the upper crescent moon to the full moon, and then to the lower crescent moon, it is very detailed."
"Hey, that's true."
When the others were ashamed, they all reacted.
but……
Some people also find it strange that there are too many changes in the moon on the stone slab.
In a month, up to thirty patterns can express the changes of the moon. But looking at the dense piles of moons on the stone slab, there are at least hundreds of patterns.
Is it necessary to portray so much?
Someone is confused...
Some people also flashed their eyes, opened their eyes wide, and were excited, and exclaimed: "No, this is... calendar, the most primitive calendar in ancient times... the lunar calendar?"
"ah?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard the sound.
"Ha ha!"
Professor Chen smiled and praised: "Smart."
This is the rhythm of confirmation.
It's really a calendar...
In an instant, there was an uproar and amazement.
Perhaps modern people have become accustomed to calendars.
At most, some people wonder why the country implements a dual calendar system, mainly the Gregorian calendar and supplemented by the lunar calendar.
Most people don’t care too much about it, they only care about how many holidays there are every year.
However, in ancient times, especially in the farming society, the establishment of the calendar was a top priority for people's livelihood, and it was not an exaggeration to care about it.
What's more, when astronomical observations are linked to the monarchy and gods' authority, they adhere to the idea of unity between man and nature.
When an emperor governs a country, he must also combine it with the calendar and astronomical phenomena.
Over time, observing the image and teaching the time has also evolved into a very important political task.
In this case, who dares to neglect?
So the reporters present were very clear about the importance and necessity of the calendar, in ancient times.
Now……
A very primitive calendar table appears in front of everyone.
This naturally made everyone extremely excited.
“…We are well known to be one of the earliest countries in the world to invent calendars.”
Professor Chen also said: "In ancient times, according to the needs of different agricultural and animal husbandry production, our country produced solar calendars and lunar calendars respectively."
"As a traditional calendar, it was impossible to find out when it was first originated, but based on the unearthed oracle bone inscriptions and records in many ancient historical books, we can reasonably infer..."
"The ancients must have invented the Lunar calendar first."
"After all, looking up at the starry sky, the moon is big, white, round and bright, and it repeats itself and cycles endlessly. It is relatively easy to summarize the rules."
Professor Chen smiled and said, "From this perspective, the lunar calendar is the origin of the calendar, so there should be little controversy."
"Based on this reason, after we dug up this calendar stone tablet, we immediately felt like we were in danger. Then we found many calendar experts and scholars to study together..."
"It was finally confirmed that this is a calendar that is different from the ancient six calendars. It is completely different from the calendar after the Xia and Shang dynasties. It is not the legendary Fuxi Jia calendar or the Nuwa Taiyin calendar..."
"Study the rules and infer the length of time and the changes in the moon, etc...."
"There is no doubt that from the details, we can know that in this calendar, there is no concept of the month, only the cycle of the week and year, that is, the law of the year."
"It is determined by this that this is definitely one of the original calendars."
Professor Chen smiled and said, "To a certain extent, it was also the creation of the ancients' great achievements."
"The calendar is a symbol of the maturity of a civilization. Eight thousand to ten thousand years ago, in the entire Yellow River Basin, all the tribes of all sizes, probably only the legendary ancient Huaxu Kingdom had such a crystallization of wisdom."
"In addition, the many cultural relics unearthed show that the ancient country is located in the stage of transformation from matriarchal society to patriarchal society..."
"The specific characteristics are..."
“… Characteristics of cultural relics!”
"Watanacao pattern, totem analysis..."
“…Primitive Thunder God Worship!”
"Combined with ancient words..."
"To sum up, we boldly speculate that the xxx mountain cultural relics are the legendary ruins of the ancient Huaxu Kingdom!"
Professor Chen was full of enthusiasm and his tone was full of enthusiasm.
But below, a group of reporters were stunned. After a long time of trouble, they listed a bunch of evidence, and talked about it for a long time.
It's really a guess.
Everyone was speechless.
But...it's okay.
At least it sounds like some reason.
Besides...
Controversy is even more a good thing.
There was also controversy about whether the ancient city at the bottom of the sea was Tanggu.
A golden scepter has too little evidence and is not enough persuasion. However, if people dare to shout this slogan, they will immediately ignite the enthusiasm of the whole people.
Obviously, Professor Chen and others followed suit.
The readers laughed and knew how to operate them.
