Zhang Jian's skull was unearthed in Nanyang?It's just a historical research statement that has not been proven

Recently, some media reports that the skull of a suspected Western Han diplomatic ambassador Zhang Jian appeared in the warehouse of the Institute of Cultural Relics and Archeology, Henan Province. For a while, there were divergent opinions on the Internet.

On September 5th, Yangzi Evening News/Zi Niu Journalist contacted a test person at the scene. He told reporters that everything was just speculated, and there was actually no conclusion. "We detected that the age of the head of the skull was just in line with Zhang Jian's period. It also made some research, so this topic caused this topic."

Chen Xu, director of the business department of the Zhangye Memorial Hall, believes that the news is not reliable, and the on -site testing tools are not scientific. No, it can only be said to be an imagination. "

Zhang Jian's skull suddenly unearthed in Nanyang?

According to this news, in 2020, when the Tomb of Bowanghou, the Bowang Village of Bowang Town, it discovered the skull and was later placed in the warehouse of the local cultural relics and archeological research institute.

At the scene, Wang Guanghui, the inventor of the "Luoyang Eye" detector, used the instrument to measure the year of the skull. The results showed that the upper limit of the skull was about 160 BC, and Zhang Jian lived from 164 BC to BC BC BC 114 years.

So after several discussions, they directly gave preliminary inference: this may be Zhang Jian's skull.

Public cultural relic photos show that the entire head is dark brown, and several white teeth remain in the corner of the jaw. Therefore, they also believe that this may be related to Zhang Jian ’s outdoor activities and dietary dairy products all year round.

One or two sentences, exporting, unconfirmed inferences, pushed this inexplicable news to the highland of public opinion. The first is multiple media in Nanyang reprinted reports, and even the media posted that "the world discovered, suspected that Zhang Jian's skull was in Nanyang!"

Of course, some people have questioned: have never seen historical records, nor have you seen the archeological community, "Why did it come out suddenly?"

In particular, several inspectors at the scene seemed not to be "professional", making life doubtful. They talked around the head bones in the box, talked with each other, appeared in plain clothes, did not wear gloves, and did not wear any protective clothes. "Is this the correct way to open the archeology?"

A archaeologist who was engaged in the study of the Erlitou site told reporters that he had brushed the news on his mobile phone and "I didn't want to open it." He did not want to disclose his name. The historical information of the strangeness of the strangeness "," This thing has nothing to do with our archeology. "

In this regard, Yu Chunfen, an associate professor at the School of Cultural Heritage of Northwest University, said that this tweet has been repeatedly seen "Nanyang Zhangye's head" recently. I thought it was impossible. Word: "Fake."

The Zhangye Memorial Hall denies the above statement

In fact, at present, historic research is recognized that in the three years of Emperor Hanwu Yuan Ding (114 years ago), Zhang Jian died in Chang'an (now Xi'an, Shaanxi). Wang Town Raojiaying Village.

The book "Zhang Jian Culture and Silk Road" records that during the Southern Song Dynasty to the Republic of China, the tomb of Zhangye experienced three different degrees of renovation. Since 1949, under the supervision of the cultural relics department, four more protective repair has been carried out. In May 1983, a special protection agency, the Zhangye Tomb Cultural Relics Management Office (later renamed the Zhangye Memorial Hall).

The on -site test staff contacted by the reporter said that if the skull is Zhang Jian, then he is not buried in Gu County, Shaanxi Province. , But what is the situation, it is still unclear, and there is still no conclusion. "

Chen Xu, the director of the business department of the Zhangye Memorial Hall, firmly denied the above statement. The reason is that from the historical records to the Qing Dynasty records, the tomb of Zhangye has not changed.

Chen Xu told reporters that most of the corpses from the Han Dynasty to the present grave were not well preserved or corrupted, so there are often some messy remarks. "How can we determine its authenticity? Can we be unearthed according to historical records and archeology. Research on the cultural relics. "
