The excavation of the Diaoyutai site is over: the ancients eat the river fresh jade

From the summer of mosquito bites, to the cold winter, the excavation of the Diaoyutai site lasted for half a year. Later, I found that the northern end of the site was a sparkling water surface. The ancients living on the piers ate the river fresh, wearing sickles and stone tools, wearing the luxury goods of that era, jade, living a busy and prosperous life. .

Ancient people built houses

In the southwest of Jade City, the Diaoyutai site, which was once surrounded by farmland, is about to be submerged in reinforced concrete. Last summer, the Provincial Archaeological Institute rescued three or four traces of salvation and took the initiative to discover the great traces and the traces of the two traces. The newspaper has repeatedly reported reports.

The third and fourth traces were severely damaged and the excavation soon ended. The cultural layer has accumulated a large number of large traces and two traces of continuous exploration. In the later period, the archaeologists each set up a trench in the north of the Great Chen and the west side of the second trace, in order to further understand the accumulation of the site and find the original ground.

In the excavation of the great traces, archaeologists discovered several traces of the site, not only the wall base, but also the clear hole. It is speculated that these are legacy of buildings in the Western Zhou Dynasty or earlier. The discovery of the site confirmed that there were human settlements thousands of years ago.

Burning ceramic tools

If you live, you can't live without it. The ancients thousands of years ago used local materials and made various bones and stone tools. "There are stone cones, stone sarcophagi, and stone spindles. One or twenty pieces were unearthed from the sarcophagus, and the preservation is relatively complete." Archaeologist Zhou Chongwen introduced Say.

"Bone, some are production tools, such as knives and knives; some are polished into tubes, made of ornaments, small pendants, indicating that the ancients are also very beautiful."

Among the excavations, the most unearthed pieces are various pottery pieces, including pottery pots, pottery pots, and pottery pots. Later, archaeologists discovered braised soil on the monument, which is a testimony to the kiln site. It is preliminarily concluded that this is the ancient kiln before the Western Zhou Dynasty, used to burn the pottery that people needed at that time. "This shows that people who lived on the pier at that time already have the awareness of burning pottery, and the level of productivity has reached a certain height."

Diaoyutai is worthy of the name

With the deepening of the excavation work, the accumulation of soil containing ginger and stone was found around the site. "The earth contains things like small rocks, which are usually found at the bottom of the river." At the same time, it was found that there was a ditch at the northern end of the Great Chen. Although there were no signs of water at the southern end, the ground here was more than 2 meters lower than it is now thousands of years ago.

"The ground is silted up, and there are late construction waste and soil padding. There is no inclusive material, no cultural layer, and there is no trace of human life." Zhou Chongwen said.

The site also unearthed a large number of shells and snail shells, which not only confirmed the surrounding water, but also showed that the ancients used this as a food, and processed the leftover shells into production tools. "The unearthed sickle has traces of processing, sharp side. After grinding, the blade is made, and the knife handle is also worn with holes for easy carrying."

Jade found one after another

Earlier, this newspaper reported that two small jade rings were unearthed at the Diaoyutai site, which is very smooth. In the later stage of excavation, two pieces of jade, one jade tube, and the thickness of the thumb were unearthed in the second trace. One jade piece was as big as a coin.

In the limited excavation, the jade was unearthed. Although the jade was general, in the era of low productivity, jade represented the level of processing technology at that time, indicating that the productivity level is high and people's lives are relatively rich.

The archaeologists said that it is not difficult to imagine that in the distant era more than 3,000 years ago, the ancient people who lived in the grassy ruins on the ruins of the Diaoyutai, were busy with various tools, and the fire in the kiln was red, in the pot. Boiled with a delicious oyster shell, rich people wear jade, civilians wear bones, a peaceful and peaceful scene.
