Sun Jian, director of the Institute of Water Archeology of the National Cultural Relics Bureau of the National Cultural Relics Bureau: At present, through the cultural relics judgment of the water that we discovered the water, the age of this ship is in the late Yuan Dynasty.

The shipbuilding industry opened the era of China's great navigation

The Yuan Dynasty sea ship seemed to be a time machine, which made us witness China's contribution to global trade after 700 years. During that period, the technique of "watermark partition" represented the highest level of the shipbuilding industry. This memory was also retained in Dongshan, Fujian.

In Dongshan in Fujian, we saw Wu Tiancai, a fourth -generation shipbuilder who was born in the nail family, Wu Tiancai, a provincial intangible cultural heritage Dongshan sea ship nailing technology. He has hand -made fine grinding and recovered the shape structure of various ancient sea ships in the form of ship models, inheriting the nailing technique of ancient sea vessels.

Wu Tiancai, a technical inheritor of Dongshan Sea Marine Nail: The watermark partition is reflected in it. If you pick it up, you can see it. If you encounter the water leakage of the cabin, the water will not run here. very good.

Such shipbuilding skills have represented the world's most advanced shipbuilding level during the Song and Yuan Dynasties. Watching these ancient shipbuilding skills presented. It is not difficult to imagine that during the Song and Yuan Dynasties, these ocean -handed wooden boats were full of porcelain, silk and other materials to split waves and waves.

At that time, Fujian developed a great development industry due to the extensive wood and many craftsmen. Progress of navigation technology, using compass and measures to navigation and positioning is greatly helpful for determining the route. The countries and regions of the Fujian Maritime route have also increased significantly. From the 10 recorded from the Tang Dynasty to 53 in the Song Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty increased to 99. The scope of activities of Fujian Haishang has continued to expand, and business activities have become increasingly active. The entire Fujian overseas trade is in its heyday.

Sun Jian, Director of the Institute of Water Archeology of the National Cultural Relics Bureau: Since the Song Dynasty, Chinese businessmen, as a main force, entered the field of marine world. By the time of the Yuan Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty Song system. The Yuan Dynasty had a great progress, eliminating a barrier between many exchanges.

During the period from the Song Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty, it was a peak of China's navigation cause. The rise of Quanzhou has gradually replaced Guangzhou and became China's largest foreign trade port. Zhangzhou belongs to a part of the trading system of Quanzhou or southern Fujian. This period laid an important foundation for the later Zheng He to go to the west. Between the two. During this period, the Chinese began to become the main body of the navigation cause, and opened the era of Chinese navigation. It contributed to the formation of early economic globalization.

During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Zhangzhou Quanzhou rose to the sound of the sea in the sound of all nations.

Zhangzhou and Quanzhou during the Song and Yuan Dynasties used to be the center of the world's marine commerce. In the ancient town of Zhangzhou, the ancient dock that still retained has witnessed the prosperous scene of the year. Quanzhou is the starting point of the ancient Maritime Silk Road, and it has also gathered sea merchants from all over the world.

Zhangzhou City in the Song and Yuan Dynasties gradually flourished by the water transportation and marine trade of Jiulongjiang. In the ancient town of Zhangzhou, we saw the ruins of the moat in the Song Dynasty, and the locals called it the Song River or the Song Dynasty.

Chen Ziming, chairman of the Zhangzhou Writers Association: At that time, our merchant ship was transported from the sea to the place to go all the way to this place, then changed to the boat, walked in through this trench, scattered the goods into thousands of households, so The prosperity of the ancient city of Zhangzhou is actually closely related to marine trade.

The Quanzhou period of the Song and Yuan dynasties was prosperous before Zhangzhou.

Quanzhou was the starting point of the ancient Maritime Silk Road, and overseas trade reached its heyday in the Song and Yuan dynasties. Thousands of years ago, "Strang Tonggang" was a super port in Marco Polo's writing with Alexander, Egypt. Quanzhou City was the World Marine Business Center at that time. In the Song and Yuan dynasties, at least tens of thousands of cargo ships were parked in the port, spices, silk, porcelain, and other strange treasures gathered here, or scattered in China, or exported to all over the world. "Raising the Voice of the sea", the Song and Yuan dynasties are everywhere in the city of Quanzhou, and their nationality, financial resources, and living methods are different.

Most of the Chinese sea merchants in Quanzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty are civilians. They can not only make money, but they may also be awarded official positions for contributing to overseas trade.

There are also a lot of foreign sea merchants in the Song and Yuan dynasties. A large number of Arabs, Indians, Persians, Japanese, etc. come here. The official positions with high taxes and more investment in the investment are encouraged.

The "Blessing Boat" built by the Song and Yuan Quanzhou has a world -class advanced technology represented by the water secret compartment, which greatly enhances the safety of ocean.

Song and Yuan Quanzhou, the whole people are discussing.The large and small sea merchants make full use of the official policy dividend and tax incentives, relying on convenient transportation networks and developed manufacturing industries, to create the golden age of Chinese marine civilization with the spirit of hard work.(CCTV reporter Tian Yunhua Yan Hong Sun Jinyan Zhou Yafeng Quanzhou Taitai Zhangzhou Tai Huang Zhefu Zheng Yaping and Huang Jian)
