On July 26, the Xianyang Museum's "Rebirth of the Western Han Legion" Yangjiawan Western Han painted terracotta warriors and horses and horses and horses and horses and horses. This improvement and transformation not only improved the art lighting lighting of the exhibition hall, but also improved the decoration environment and aging defect facilities of the exhibition hall.

It is better to improve the visual experience

Yangjiawan's Western Han Dynasty Terracotta Warriors and Horses were displayed as one of the special display of Xianyang Museum. The exhibition area was about 700 square meters and exhibited more than 1,600 cultural relics groups.

Due to the long period of decoration of the exhibition hall, the traditional light sources used in the exhibition hall generate a large amount of infrared, ultraviolet rays, and heat in the exhibition hall. It is easy to cause certain damage to the cultural relics of colorful pottery. Appreciate the exquisite cultural relics.

The promotion project was launched in June this year. In the basic principles of protecting the cultural relics, we strive to show the material, color, technology, and texture of the cultural relics. In addition to improving the art lighting lighting of the exhibition hall, it also shows the decoration environment and aging defect facilities of the exhibition hall. The part has been transformed, and the characteristics and details of the cultural relics are clearly displayed to the audience as much as possible, creating a visual effect of life, vibrant, realistic, and overall optimization.

Ge Xia, assistant librarian of the Exhibition Department of Xianyang Museum, said that after the improvement of the transformation, the appearance of the terracotta warriors and horses was restored. For example, what is their duties? What are they in charge of the army? With the adjustment of lighting and audio, the historical and cultural heritage of exhibition products can be presented and restored to the audience.

"Three Thousands of Man" reproduce the prestige of the Han army

"Compared with the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the Western Han Dynasty, the most intuitive difference is that they only have one -third of the real person, with an average height of about 50 cm, and a much smaller than the Qin Terracotta Warriors." Wu Xiaoxuan, a researcher at Xianyang Museum, said. The discovery time is also 9 years earlier than the Terracotta Warriors and Horses. "

On August 24, 1965, in Yangjiawan Village within the scope of Liu Bang, Gaozu, Hanzhuang, the east suburbs of Xianyang City, the villagers found these painted pottery figurines while flat land. In the brick pits, 1965 soldiers, 583 riding figurines, and nearly a thousand shield models were called "three thousand horses". This is the first time in China that has unearthed a large number of terracotta warriors and horses, becoming a major discovery of the archeological community in my country in the 1960s.

These neatly arranged Terracotta Warriors and Horses form a square array, with huge momentum. Terracotta warriors and cavalry terracotta warriors are arranged. Shield, some danced, some played music, some command team ...

The horse's posture is also very vivid, and some of them are hissing, and some stop.

Bohson figurines, flag figurines, raised figurines, feathers, holding meal, carriers, and huggers should symbolize different functions such as ceremonies, secretaries, and commands. These terracotta warriors and horses reflect the organizational structure of the Western Han army to a certain extent.

A command figurine was 56 cm high, wearing martial arts, wearing a red and green shirt, lifted to the forehead on his right hand, and stretched out his thumbs and index finger as a command shape. The form was vivid. Cultural relics.

The owner of the figurines is not yet conclusive

Archaeologists have found that these terracotta warriors and horses are mainly made from the processes such as soil, mud, molding, cellar burning, and painting. The cellar burning temperature is between 900 and 1100 degrees Celsius. "The eyebrows, eyeballs, beards, coats, armor, and patterns on the horse are painted by pottery workers and paint. The paint color is black, red, purple, white, etc., very vivid and vivid." Wu Xiaoxuan Say.

It can be seen from the costumes of the terracotta warriors and horses of Yangjiawan that in the early Han Dynasty, the fusion of Chu, Hu Fu, and Qin Fu, and the characteristics of Chu clothing more prominently formed a new turning point. The clothing is classified according to the armor, there are two types of long armor and short armor; the knees of the cavalry warriors have leopard -stitched knee pads; the shoes are decorated with four types of shoe, hooking, shallow round -mouth shoes, and high -waisted Chinese boots.

According to the comprehensive analysis of the records of "Historical Records", "Han Book" and "Literature Test", the soldiers of the early Han Dynasty were mainly from three different regions. One was Guanzhong Sanfu, the other was Longxi and Tianshui regions, and the third was Bashu. From the perspective of the three different facial forms of terracotta warriors, the soldiers of the early Han Dynasty came from these three different regions.

Who is the owner of these terracotta warriors and horses, and has not yet been determined. Archaeologists combine the "Water Sutra Note" records based on the geographical location of Yangjiawan on the fourth and fifth of Yangjiawan to infer that the owners of the two tombs may be Zhou Bo or Zhou Yafu. Husband and wife, the tomb of the husband is in the south, and the wife's tomb is north.
