Top 3000 years of Sanxingdui Birds and Foot Songs to respect the statue and "combine"

Xinhua News Agency, Chengdu, June 16th (Reporter Tong Fang, Xiao Lin) Waiting for about 3,000 years, the portrait of the bronze bird foot of Samsung Doues finally retrieved the "other half".

On the 16th, the Sanxingdui archeological research team announced that the newly discovered Top Snake Portrait of the No. 8 "Sacrifice Pit" was paired with the bronze bird foot portrait of the "Sacrifice Pit" on the 2nd of 1986. Named the statue of the top of the bird foot. After 3000 years of "separation", the experts believed that this imaginative precious cultural relic was called the "peak work" of Chinese bronze civilization.

"This is not a portrait, it should be the idol." The experts who witnessed the two cultural relics "combined" at the scene were all amazed. The bird's foot song on the top of the "combined" respects the statue, the top of the head, the hand support, and the pedal bird, the body rolled backwards, and completed a difficult "action", reflecting the very important sacrifice behavior at that time very important. Rites and behaviors. The shape of the portrait of Wuzhengli is different from the bronze portrait of the braids discovered in Sanxingdui before and the portrait portrait of the bronze. It may represent another person who has another identity of Samsung Dou.

This is not a simple "accumulation". Ran Honglin, director of the Sanxingdui Archaeological Research Institute of Sichuan Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archeology, introduced that cross -pit cultural relics are paired, which confirms the previous speculation and has important guiding significance for subsequent cultural relics. This successful bronze ware foreshadows that many utensils of Sanxingdui "sacrifice pit" may be "a family". How many bronze wares can be combined in the end, it is worth looking forward to.

"This is just a stage of important discovery. We also need to do more indoor research to restore the entire appearance of Sanxingdui bronze wares." Ran Honglin said.

The newly discovered Top Snake Portrait of the "Sacrifice Pit" No. 8 is divided into three parts. In the middle is a bronze portrait of a person's first snake body, bumpy teeth, and wearing horn masks. On the bronze pupa, there was a cinnabar painted respected on his head, but he didn't find its lower body in the pit.

It has long been speculated that several "sacrifice pits" utensils have the existence of experts who fight against each other through research to find the lower body of the copper portrait -bronze bird portrait. The bronze bird's foot portrait has been exhibited at the Sanxingdui Museum. The portrait is only the lower body, wearing cloud -thunder tight skirts, strong legs, "tattoos" in the calf, protruding bird's claws, and stepping on two strange birds.

The evaluation of it before the official website of the Sanxingdui Museum is: "Bird's foot portrait is probably the strange one. Unfortunately, such a fine utensils lack the upper half, what is the original face of what it looks like ? It's really puzzled. "

The answer was announced after 36 years. Ran Honglin believes that the "combination" of the two bronze wares also shows that the 2nd and No. 8 "sacrifice pit" formed at the same time, and the cultural relics were "separated" before buried. The reasons, the background of the social background at the time, had important value.

The archaeological research of Sanxingdui is still continuing. Archaeologists, like looking for puzzles, reveal the "true face of Lushan" in the ancient country of Sanxingdui.
