Chapter 1942 Rare in archaeological discoveries over the years

Whether in ancient times or modern times, women's nature of beauty has always existed.

Thinking about it, Mrs. Xin Zhui was also a beauty when she was young. She just wanted to use these exquisite makeup tools to slow down the passage of her youth when her face was getting old.

But she never imagined that 2000 years after her death, the "double-layer nine sons' dowry" she left behind can also show us how women made themselves "peony like face and willow like eyebrow" in the Han Dynasty , It's amazing to think about it.

Of course, these things are just one of the ancient lacquered woodware.

The inheritance and development of lacquerware production technology and decorative art originated from the lacquer technology that lasted from the Neolithic Age to the Han Dynasty.

In the traditional culture of our country, we have experienced the ancient totem age of flying dragons and phoenixes, and the Bronze Age of strict hierarchy of "being bound by heaven".

After that came the pre-Qin period of rationality in which Confucianism and Taoism complemented each other, the romantic period in Jing-Chu, and the Qin-Han period connecting the past and the future.

In the most representative tombs of high-ranking aristocrats in the Western Han Dynasty in Nanhu, the inheritance and variation of lacquerware craftsmanship and decorative arts are also obvious.

The first is the change in the production of the lacquerware. The archaeological data in the Nanhu area show that the lacquerware of the early Han Dynasty and its production have been greatly improved on the basis of inheriting the lacquerware technology of the pre-Qin period.

First, the wooden tires were made using the method of chopping, carving, digging, and chiseling in the previous generation, and improved, and the method of making ware with wheels was used more.

The "Jun Xingshi" civet cat pattern lacquer food plate is very unique, so what is so unique about that food plate?

That should refer specifically to domesticated cats.

For example, there is a small hole in the center of the bottom of the circular utensils such as the Mawangdui Han Tomb lacquerware plate and bowl, which is the trace left by the wheel system.

Or with one ear raised, crawling backwards...

That is, the "silver mouth and yellow ears" mentioned in "Salt and Iron Theory" was a very precious artifact in the early Han Dynasty.

And the less than 700 pieces of lacquerware that are as bright as new are rare in archaeological discoveries over the years for their small number, complicated types, exquisite craftsmanship, and perfect preservation.

Only very few cases are the same. Occasionally, two civet cats and a tortoise, two civet cats and a frog, and a civet cat and two mice are painted at equal distances in the inner abdomen murals.

From 1972 to 1974, archaeologists previously excavated eight Han tombs in Mawangdui Township on the eastern outskirts of Husha, which were verified to be the cemetery of the Xihou family in the Western Han Dynasty.

From the perspective of shape, they are slightly smaller in size, with narrow edges, open mouths, shallow arc belly, and flat bottom.

They all make the inner tube first, then paste it with several layers of lacquer on linen or silk, and remove the inner tube mold before it dries, so it is called "boring".

"Animal name. Mammalia, Carnivora, Felidae. There is no fat pad at the bottom of the toe, so it walks with a sound. It is docile. It moves slowly and is good at jumping. It likes to prey on rodents, and sometimes eats frogs and snakes. The species is very good. few."

The lacquer painting under the lacquerware of the Mawangdui Han Tomb is made of raw lacquer into a translucent lacquer liquid mixed with various pigments, and painted under the utensils.

For example, the "big lacquer cloth swastika" unearthed from Han Tomb No. 1 in Mawangdui is a lacquer swastika with cone-painted patterns.

Seventh, most parts are bamboo embryos.

However, the earliest dictionary in your country - "Shuowen Jiezi" written by Xu Shen in the Han Dynasty, there is no explanation about the shape and pronunciation of "cat".

At that time, a new technique of painting patterns on the bottom of the lacquer ware and inlaying gold and silver appeared.

The most prominent of those patterns is not the civet cat pattern, but also the uniqueness of those lacquer food dishes.

The thick lacquerware on the outside is elegantly decorated, and it is still as bright as new after being buried for thousands of years.

Seventh, the short-lived lacquer ware with lacquered tires in the tombs of Chu did not emerge until the early Han Dynasty.

When it comes to civet cats, few people will automatically think of "the story of a civet cat for a prince", but what kind of animal is a civet cat?

There is no most authoritative explanation in "Ci Hai", which answers your questions.

What do the ancients hate after two thousand years?Hate cats?Zhengmei game?Hate tempeh?

Therefore, it is Ke Zhengmei. If the ancients in the Han Dynasty hated food, they were generally nobles of this period.

In the meantime, moiré is painted to achieve the artistic effect of no change in symmetry.

It is supplemented by exquisite patterns of clouds, phoenix birds, gods, monsters, etc. The patterns are vivid and the colors are gorgeous.

It is still amazing how rich our diet is and how little we cook.

There are no less than 100 civet cats painted under the lacquer food plates. They either have erect ears and squat like tigers;

Among the more than 3000 unearthed assortments of funerary objects, the exquisite lacquerware, textiles and well-preserved ancient corpses are particularly amazing.

Rather than the inheritance and variation of decorative crafts, the decorative crafts of lacquerware in the early Han Dynasty were very exquisite. On the basis of inheriting the decorative crafts of pre-Qin lacquerware, many new crafts appeared.

They are vivid and have one similarity,

In fact, from under those lacquerware, we can't see any clues.

Civet cats are outlined with a single line of vermilion lacquer, painted with gray-green lacquer inside, and painted with vermilion eyes, ears, beards, claws, and tail patterns.

Before inheriting the traditional lacquer painting art, it can also innovate.

Along with the discovery of various animals, plants, food, and alcohol, combined with cooking methods such as boiling, steaming, roasting, and frying recorded in the dispatch book, the family recipes of the nobles in the early Han Dynasty were presented.

Zhengmei has a diameter of 28.5 cm and a height of 6 cm.The whole body is painted with white lacquer, and there is no writing on the inside of the plate. The inside of the plate reads "Jun Xingshi", and the bottom of the plate reads "Sisheng" and "Jiehoujia".

So what kind of animal is a civet cat?

Under the body of the vessel, only ink characters such as "Jun Xing Shi", "Jun Xing Wine" and "One Liter and a Half Liter" can be seen.

The abdomen of the dish is painted with continuous curling moire patterns in two colors of vermilion and gray-green, and eight civet cat patterns are decorated at equal distances between the curling moire patterns.

Basically, in the center of the bottom of the inner wall of each lacquer plate, there is a civet cat painted on it, only one of which is a turtle.

Those lacquer food dishes have the same shape and similar decoration.

Few of those lacquerware were food containers, and the 30 most exquisite ones did not have the "Jun Xingshi" civet cat pattern lacquer food plate mentioned later.

The craftsmen's creations are very uninspiring. Here, similar civet cat patterns were found under two lacquer dowry and one cone painting dowry unearthed from the Mawangdui Han Tomb.

Eighth, the thin wood slices are rolled into tubes and made of tenon and tenon joints, which is more exquisite than the lacquerware of Chu tombs in the Warring States Period.

Zhengmei said that under the utensils unearthed in that ancient tomb, there are various patterns of civet cats.

The plate with cat pattern and box with phoenix and bird pattern in Tomb No. 1 were drawn by this method.

The buttons of the lacquered goblet and the gilt copper rings are inlaid under the ears.

More than 3000 precious cultural relics were unearthed from the eight Western Han Dynasty tombs previously excavated at Mawangdui.

At that time, the painter used the eight-legged composition method to combine the eight phoenixes and eight cats into a beautiful balanced pattern.

Judging from the lacquer ware unearthed from Xianjiahu Xiangbizui No. 1 Han Tomb, Shazitang No. 1 Han Tomb, and Mawangdui Han Tomb, its production method is similar to that of the Warring States Period.

For example, the painted spoon on a bamboo body of the Han Tomb No. 1 in Mawangdui, Changsha, is made of bamboo joints as the bottom of the bucket, and the long cut bamboo slices are used as the handle of the spoon.

The cat's eyes are wide open, its ears are upright and its tail is long, and there are no spots on its body.

There are no cloud patterns painted on the plate, and there are no curly cloud patterns, civet cat patterns, tortoise patterns, etc. painted on the inside of the plate.
