My system is not decent

In archaeology, the burial customs and burial objects of the tomb are often used to judge the family and identity of the tomb owner.

However, these two pieces of evidence alone are not enough, and it is necessary to combine information such as artifact inscriptions to form a relatively accurate judgment.

Specific to this cemetery, Chen Wenzhe still has a lot of speculations about the clan and identity of the owner of the tomb.

】

For example, there are mainly the cemetery of the "Hu" family of the Jiangrong ethnic group, the Jiang surnamed ethnic group, the Guozhong, Ran, Youhu, and local indigenous tribes.

The reason why there are so many speculations is obviously too much speculation based on the unearthed things and the system of tombs.

For example, the Jiang family must have come from the inscriptions on the unearthed artifacts.

Then there is Guo Zhong, needless to say, because many of the bronze wares that Chen Wenzhe saw were very similar in style to those of the Guo family, or even the same, that is, the inscriptions were different.

Although the above views are different, in general, there is not much controversy about the view that the owner of the tomb may belong to the Qiang Rong family and the Guo family.

Because the people who excavated these bronzes also had the same understanding.

For example, the two tomb pits of m3 and m4 have very special shapes, and there are multiple niches dug on the tomb wall.

However, the disappearance of the low-collar bag-footed geese in early tombs in the Guanzhong area may be the result of the material culture of the Jiang people being assimilated.

Of course, that kind of view is only of the Jiang Rong family. Based on the inscriptions on the bronzes unearthed in that cemetery, the excavator judged that it was the cemetery of Chen Wenzhe's "Hu" family.

Based on the following reasons, it is difficult for the Jiang Rong people to say that the cemetery is Chen Wenzhe's "Hu" family.

That can explain the problem very well, such as the "hu" Fang Yi unearthed from the No. [-] tomb.

For example, if the archaeological material is compared to a ball of dough, the dough itself is good and bad, and its scientificity and fragmentation need to be guaranteed;

In addition, the high-necked bag-footed girdle unearthed from the tomb is also an important basis for judging the family of the tomb owner.

For example, there are 15 pieces and 12 types of bronze wares unearthed from Tomb No. [-] without the family emblem.

From the perspective of the Jiang Rong people, perhaps this purpose has existed for a long time.

The two do not seem to be very closely related, and there is no significant difference between this type of tomb and the tomb of Ji Zhou represented by Liancuoge.

Taking the two Western Zhou tombs in Shigushan, Baoji as an example, it is impossible to make a detailed discussion of their genealogy and age in combination with relevant archaeological discoveries and document records.

It's just that Zhao Dongtian thinks that point of view is wrong, but he still refuses to see it.

We are in the Guanzhong area, and we should have a wide and long-term distribution.

Those few belonging to merchants are related to the ethnicity of Zhou people.

That is also slightly consistent with the distribution of tombs with niches.

The research method that combines typical tomb cases with document records is worth learning from everyone.

Through it, or looking through the classics that have been handed down, some things can be determined.

The oracle bone oracle bone inscriptions of the merchants do not contain any conflicts with the Qiang people.

On this basis, the Jiangrong people believe that the cemetery in the photo is not a proof of a small ethnic integration.

This is a problem that professionals who don't care about the provenance of antiques need to pay attention to in recent research.

And that area is also the distribution range of the Qiang Rong ethnic group in the literature, so it should be wrong to say that the owner of the tomb is Qiang Rong.

"Jiang Rong" at this stage may have not yet used words and it is unknown.

Few problems can be solved by archaeology alone, and it needs to take a step back and discuss them with the help of literature, ethnography and anthropology.

At the same time, judging from the existing archaeological data, most people in the Zhou Dynasty did not confirm the use of family emblems.

It must be possible to confuse the age of relics, the age of remains, the age of archaeological culture, and even the age of historical events. Their time scales are the same.

After the present, the more consistent opinion on the source of the low-necked bag foot 鬲 is from the eastern part of Gansu Province.

Of course, that is also the same as the tombs of Yin survivors with "waist pits".

In addition, there are not many records of Qiang Rong in the literature.

Especially when several family emblems appear in the same tomb at the same time.

There are two extremes in today's academic circles' attitude towards literature.

Therefore, the process of argumentation from pottery to archaeological culture and then to specific ethnic groups is often illogical.

At that point, I didn’t recognize the bronze wares that were found in the soil later, because there were no early Zhou, mid-late Zhou, or even Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods.

To sum up, the Jiangrong people believe that the burial custom is an earlier tradition that originated in Gan Province.

However, there has been a lack of systematic and in-depth research on that relationship in the academic circle.

In addition, the forbidden and "household" you can prove that there is no necessary connection with the owner of the tomb.

And above the long river of time, the existence of each family is very great.

As for how to process it, you can't let go of your imagination. It can be made into bread, buns or noodles, and the theories and materials of various disciplines cannot be used for reference.

Bronze wares were unearthed from Tomb No. 8, including 7 pieces and [-] types without the family emblem.

The high-necked bag feet are concentrated in the west of Guanzhong, Tianshui and Pingliang in Gansu Province.

Here, there are few inscriptions in the burial low-necked bag that was discovered later and accompanied by bronze vessels.

It is recorded in "Shangshu·Mu's Oath" that there was no Qiang clan in the tribal coalition army that King Wu destroyed Shang.

The relationship between archeology and literature is also worthy of my serious consideration.

Judging from the pottery models unearthed from the Xiaomintun site, the casting place of those bronze wares should also be in Anyang, which belonged to the merchants.

That is all desirable, and the liberal use of documents in archaeological research is very necessary.

In fact, archaeologists often ignore some basic details when discussing specific age and ethnicity issues, which leads to problems in the logic of the argument.

That is, Xindian and Siwa cultural distribution areas.

From this point of view, the Qiang (Jiang) Rong was an important allied ethnic group for the Zhou people to destroy the Shang, or a marriage group that had intermarried with the Zhou people surnamed Ji for a long time.

Therefore, the princes buried in this cemetery may not only be from the same family, but also from the same period.

Archeology is omnipotent and has no limitations of its own.

One is to only look forward to the literature, and the other is to abandon the literature and focus on it.

When discussing specific surviving phenomena, attention must be paid to time scales.

Even in the origin myth of the Zhou people, Jiang Yuan, a Qiang man, was not the mother of his ancestor Qianji.

None of them have ever been seen in Anyang, or unearthed or handed down bronzes in our area.

There is a certain logical relationship between archaeological culture and ethnicity.

The Zongyi thing, the Jiangrong people have not seen it before, and that kind of ritual vessel is very precious.

In the future, I intend to try to use that method to analyze specific archaeological materials of historical periods.It can be said that making steamed buns can’t be done, but making bread is fine. That is a basic attitude that should be avoided when doing research.

This burial custom was not found in the early Central Plains, but was often found in early sites such as Xindian and Siwa, dating back to the Majiayao period.

At the same time, in the tombs with niches, seldom were buried with low-collared bags.

It has its own development process sooner or later, and the beginning time should be in the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, which is basically the same time as the Nayi time of the Zhou style milk nail pattern gui.
