But with the excavation of some ancient tombs, cultural relics have not been better preserved. On the contrary, because the excavation technology is not hard enough and the preservation measures are not in place, cultural relics have lost their original appearance, such as the well-known Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses. In fact, when the Terracotta Warriors were first excavated, they were colorful and spectacular. Because it was not preserved in time after the tomb was opened, it became the terracotta warriors and horses we see now, which were desolate and some even turned black. This is why the State Council later issued the Notice on Strengthening and Improving the Work of Cultural Relics, explicitly requiring that large imperial tombs should not be actively excavated when the excavation technology and good means are not perfect enough.
So why dig Guan Yu's grave? In fact, no one can give the most accurate answer now, but there have been "notices" in the past. Xiao Xin believes that the decision to exploit ancient tombs is nothing more than the following considerations:
1, there are enough technologies and means to excavate the ancient tomb;
2. The ancient tomb was destroyed by thieves and needed to be excavated to better protect cultural relics;
3. Some water conservancy projects or construction projects have started, and there are ancient tombs in the area that need to be excavated.
Oppose digging Guan Yu's tomb.
The cultural relics and records of the Three Kingdoms in the late Han Dynasty are relatively detailed, so it is not necessary to dig for the sake of digging.
Don't do whatever you want under the guise of investigation. Once some things are destroyed, what will be left to future generations? Enough is enough, leaving a margin, that is, respecting the ancients, history, science and future generations.
1979, after a heavy rain, a big hole like an ancient tomb appeared on the back hill called Guanzhuang in Yanshi, east of Luoyang. The villagers in Guanzhuang immediately reported to the superior, so the superior sent an archaeological team to carry out rescue excavation of this ancient tomb.
This is a very common pit tomb, and the archaeological team excavated some funerary objects of the Han Dynasty. The most anticipated thing is that when the coffin was opened, people were surprised to find that there was only a skull and no body. This cast a mysterious veil on the tomb owner. Who is he? Who killed him? With the progress of excavation and the appearance of tombstones, this veil was quickly unveiled, and the unearthed tombstones impressively read: "Han Shou Hou Ting Guan Yunchang" is the all-powerful Guan Yu when the tomb owner pointed directly at the Three Kingdoms.
Guan Yu's cause of death
According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms, in the twenty-four years of Jian 'an, Guan Yu lost Jingzhou and defeated Maicheng, and Sun Quan caught Guan Yu with tears and beheaded him. The right to send feathers first lies with Cao Gong. As a vassal, his body was buried in the northwest of Dangyang. Therefore, the local people have a saying that "the head rests in Luoyang and the body is trapped in the hot sun". Therefore, there are only two places where Guan Yu sleeps, one is the place where his body is suspended and buried, and the cenotaph built for him in Chengdu, Sichuan. It is now famous for the tomb of Guan Yu in Chengdu. Where Guan Yu's head is buried has never been known to the world.
The exact burial place of the head became a mystery.
According to historical records. When Guan Yu was captured by Sun Quan, he cut off his head and gave it to Cao Cao. Its purpose is to put the responsibility for killing Guan Yu on Cao Cao and make the whole world hate Cao Cao. Cao Cao, a wily old fox, saw through Sun Quan's trick and buried Guan Yu's head in Luoyang as a vassal. The ancient city of Luoyang is not the same place as Luoyang in the Three Kingdoms period. Where was Luoyang City at that time? No one knows the exact location. So where did Cao Cao bury Guan Yu's head? It has always been a mystery.
It's like surfaced.
With the passage of time, we modern people finally have the answer. The discovery of Guan Yu's tomb in Guanzhuang village of Yanshi presents the burial place of Guan Yu's head to the world. If it hadn't been for the heavy rain in 1979, we might not have found a place to bury our heads.
Later generations worshipped Guan Yu and worshipped him. He is a warrior in people's minds. It is not easy to destroy his tomb, but an unwitting rescue excavation. This is the real reason why Guan Yu's tomb was dug.
In fact, many tombs of celebrities in the Three Kingdoms period have not been found so far. Except for Cao Cao, Cao Zhi, Cao Xiu and Zhu Ran, the graves of others are either in doubt or not found. For example, Zhuge Liang's tomb, whether Hanzhong is a cenotaph or a cemetery, no one knows, and no one has excavated it anyway. For example, no one knows whether Liu Bei's tomb is Zhaolie Temple in Chengdu or Baidicheng in Yong 'an.
Cao Cao's Tomb, also known as Anyang Gaoling, is located in Xigaoxue Village, Anfeng Township, Anyang City, Henan Province, adjacent to Yecheng, Cao Cao's base camp. Cao Zhi Mausoleum is located in Yushan Village, Yushan Town, Donge County, Liaocheng City, Shandong Province. Cao Xiu's tomb is located in Sanlipu Village, Songzhuang Township, Mengjin County, Luoyang City, Henan Province, and Zhu Ran's tomb is located in Yushan Township, Maanshan City, Anhui Province. In fact, the Three Kingdoms period was a chaotic period in the history of China, with frequent wars, epidemic diseases and a large population decline. Moreover, thin burial and cenotaph were popular at that time, so it was difficult to determine the graves of celebrities in the Three Kingdoms.
Guan yunchang
For example, Guan Yu's cemetery has always had two places. One is where Guan Yu was killed. In 2 19 AD, Guan Yu defeated Maicheng, then Guan Yu led dozens of cavalry to break through, but was captured by Pan Zhang's subordinate Ma Zhong in Linzhou, and then Guan Yu and his eldest son Guan Ping were beheaded. Guan Yu was captured in Linshu, which is Nanzhang County, Xiangfan City, Hubei Province today.
After Guan Yu was killed, his head was given to Cao Cao by Sun Quan. Cao Cao buried Guan Yu in the "Guanlin" fifteen miles south of Luoyang with the gift of a prince, so it was called Guanlin, because it was an ancient building integrating tombs, temples and forests. This location is today's Guanlin Town, Luolong District, Luoyang City, Henan Province. Cao Cao customized a wooden body for Guan Yu and buried it with Guan Yu's head in Guanlin, which can be used as Guan Yu's mausoleum.
Guanlin
Although Sun Quan gave Guan Yu's head to Cao Cao, at the same time Sun Quan buried Guan Yu's body in Dangyang. At first, the tomb of Guan Yu in Dangyang was just an ordinary tomb. Later, it was built by local officials in the Southern Song Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty and North Korea, and it gradually formed the present scale, so it was called "Guan Ling". Although Guan Yu was not an emperor, in later dynasties, Guan Yu was always mythologized and sealed.
In addition, Guan Yu has a Jiezhou Guandi Temple in Yuncheng, Shanxi Province, which is both Guan Yu's hometown and Guan Yu's cenotaph. The so-called cenotaph is to replace the remains with the clothes of the deceased. Because Guan Yu died in Dangyang and was buried in the same place, it is impossible for Guan Yu's hometown Shanxi to have a tomb. The Guandi Temple in Xiezhou is just a cenotaph built to commemorate Guan Yu, which was built from the Sui Dynasty.
Guan Yuzhong
Therefore, there are three sayings about Guan Yu's mausoleum alone, so there has always been another saying about Guan Yu's mausoleum, that is, "The head rests in Luoyang, the body is trapped in the sun, and the soul returns to Yuncheng." This is not only a portrayal of Guan Yu's life, but also a description of three Guan Yu tombs. But what is certain is that the Guan Yu Mausoleum in these three places has not been excavated, not only has it not been excavated, but the Guan Di Mausoleum has also been maintained by the people and rulers of past dynasties.
Why didn't anyone dare to explore Guan Yu's mausoleum?
The first reason: Guan Yu has a high personal prestige and is loyal at the same time.
Although Guan Yu is arrogant, he is very kind to ordinary soldiers and people. According to this history book, Guan Yu only looked down on scholar-officials. In the battle of Xiangfan, Guan Yu was defeated by Sun Quan because of his sneak attack on Jingzhou. During his escape, many of his soldiers were lured by Lumen. Most of these Jingzhou soldiers left Guan Yu and surrendered to Lv Meng, which eventually led to Guan Yu being captured and killed.

Although Guan Yu died, although tens of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers who originally belonged to Guan Yu surrendered to Soochow, they obviously felt guilty about Guan Yu. So after Guan Yu was killed, everyone went to pay homage to Guan Yu's mausoleum. Over time, Guan Yu's incense in Dangyang Guanling continued, and Guan Yu's folk prestige in Jingzhou was high. Many people spontaneously protect Guan Yu's mausoleum. In addition, Guan Yu is loyal at ordinary times, with clear grievances and good treatment of foot soldiers, so he has always been respected and natural.
The Guanlin built by Cao Cao for Guan Yu was built in the name of the country, so later Cao Pi, Cao Rui and others inherited Cao Cao's legacy and also protected Guan Yu's Guanlin in Luoyang. In addition, Cao Cao always liked Guan Yu and praised Guan Yu's loyalty. In addition, the battle of Guan Yu and Xiangfan is very famous in the whole Central Plains, so it has a great reputation. Coupled with the admiration of Cao Cao, Guan Yu's reputation has always been very good, and no one dares to explore Guanlin.
As for Guan Yu's cenotaph in Shanxi, there is no chance to excavate it. There is no body of Guan Yu, and there are no funerary objects such as treasures. Of course, no one has dug it.
Guanling
The second reason: Guan Yu is the first general of the Three Kingdoms.
Guan Yu is the first general in the Three Kingdoms. The Battle of White Horse killed Yan Liang, and the Battle of Xiangfan had a great influence on China. These are two great achievements of Guan Yu's life, which were well-known and far-reaching at that time. The Battle of White Horse directly killed Yan Liang for Cao Cao, and the Battle of Xiangfan had a great influence on China and changed the direction of the whole three countries. It was because of Guan Yu's growth that Sun Quan had the ambition to sneak into Jingzhou, because Sun Quan didn't want to sit back and watch Guan Yu grow up.
Jingzhou, guarded by Guan Yu, is a powder keg of the Three Kingdoms and a frontier of the Three Kingdoms. Almost all the fiercest wars in the three countries took place here. As a famous soldier who has been guarding Jingzhou for more than ten years, Guan Yu is naturally well known. Since he is a famous soldier, he will be respected by the people, and no one will dig Guan Yu's grave.
Guan Yu became a god of wealth and a warrior.
The third reason: Guan Yu was deeply respected by the people and rulers of all ages.
After Guan Yu's death, not only the common people, but also the rulers of past dynasties praised Guan Yu, and Guan Yu's position in history was constantly improving. In the Tang Dynasty, Guan Yu entered the Wu Temple, and in the Song Dynasty, Guan Yu was named "Gong" and "Wang". In the Ming Dynasty, Guan Yu was called "Guan Sheng Di Jun", and in the Qing Dynasty, Guan Yu was called "Guan Sheng Da Di" and "Wu Sheng".
Guan Yu has even become the patron saint of all walks of life and has always been worshipped by people. Who dares to explore Guan Yu's mausoleum? Who dares to have a hard time with Wu Sheng and Guan Di? For thousands of years, no one dared to dig Guan Yu's tomb until now.
Thank you for inviting me.
Digging Guan Yu's tomb, I think it should be a protective excavation. In recent years, China has strengthened the management of ancient tomb excavation. Under normal circumstances, it is not allowed to dig casually. Therefore, most mausoleums are excavated only when there is no way. The excavation of Guan Yu's tomb should be the same.
Thank you.
I didn't want to answer such a retarded question, but I felt very sad to see so many ignorant replies.
As I said before, the biggest problem in China's education system is that hundreds of millions of people are illiterate. They are nothing scientific, logical and rational except knowing words! I have the same thing in my head! Why are the media talking nonsense now, new media flooding, chicken soup in friends circle and rumors of TCM health care flying all over the sky? The reason is simple. Our people pee too much. In the hundred years since the New Culture Movement, everyone's pigtails have disappeared. As Mr. Gu said, the braid in his heart has always been there. And the longer it takes, the stronger it gets.
Why dig Guan Yu's grave? As a history lover, I advocate and support the excavation of all tombs with excavation value when technical means allow. In ancient times, there was no such advanced means of information preservation as modern times, and countless historical facts were drowned in legends. Archaeological excavation can help us to confirm the history books and understand where we come from and what we have done. Without archaeological excavations, we can't prove the existence of our history. Without archaeological excavations, we can't prove the mistakes of our history. Without archaeological excavation, it is impossible to understand the social productive forces and systems at a certain stage.
Because of archaeological excavations, we dug up Simuwu Fang Ding, so that our credit history can now be pushed from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Shang Dynasty. Sanxingdui gives us a glimpse of the disappearing ancient Shu culture, which proves that China has a pluralistic civilization since ancient times. The excavation of Erlitou proves the existence of Xia culture (not Xia dynasty, I think Xia dynasty is nonsense by Zhou people). We have found classic mistakes that have been handed down for thousands of years, and we have found long-lost words.
Only by inheriting the past can we move forward. A great nation must have a real history. The real history can't be invented by later generations, and it must be proved by actual historical materials!
Moreover, valuable archaeological excavations are all tombs of princes and nobles, which contain the crystallization and sweat of people's wisdom and skills at that time. As future generations, we have the obligation and responsibility to let these treasures be unearthed. They should not be lost in the years with several bodies, but should be placed in museums for future generations to be proud of and admire!
Finally, give Du Fu's quatrains to those who have braids in their hearts and kneel in the traditional dross to linger on erotic culture:
"Lu" and "Lu" are the highest achievements of their creation under the conditions of that time.
After the life of your generation has all turned to dust, nothing will hurt the torrent flowing to the endless river.
-This play is six quatrains. Secondly,
Excavating Guan Yu's tomb is so attractive. Master Guan has countless auras on his head and infinite charm. Everyone wants to know what the real Guan Yu looks like. During the Three Kingdoms period, Guan Yu was far more famous than other military commanders, and many emperors and celebrities were also fans of Guan Gong. From the 13th to 14th year of Emperor Kai of Sui Dynasty (593-594), the wise master, the founder of Tiantai Sect, awarded the "Bodhisattva Ring" to Guan Yu, and Guan Yu occupied a place in Buddhism. In the second year of Song Huizong's devotion to Ning (1 103), Guan Yu was named as "the true monarch worships Ning", and Guan Yu gained legal status in Taoism. In the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, Guan Yu pushed Jiang Taigong off the altar and became a "warrior sage". In the Qing Dynasty, the Eight Emperors *** 13 conferred the title of Guan Yu for nine years (1870), and Guan Yu's title has reached as many as 26 words: "Loyalty, SHEN WOO spirit, benevolence, courage, protecting the country and benefiting the people, sincerely comforting and praising Xuande Guan Shengdi Jun". Among the people, Guan Yu is honored as "God of War, Exorcist, Patron Saint and Wu Caishen".
A military commander of Shu is so respected. What kind of person is he? Seduce the curiosity of countless people, so digging a cemetery must be what everyone expects.
Is Guan Yu's body missing its head? If Guan Yu's cemetery is really excavated, the first thing I want to know is whether Guan Yu's body is missing its head.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms is more vivid. Sun Quan cut off Guan Yu's head and handed it to Cao Cao in a wooden box. Cao Cao opened the box,
Cao Cao tried to be humorous, but he scared himself. Cao Cao put Guan Yu's head on a sculpture of Daphne and buried it outside the south gate of Luoyang.
Guan Yu's graveyard is in Dangyang, Hubei. I wonder if Sun Quan of the State of Wu carved a wooden knot as the head when he buried Guan Yu's body. If so, maybe he can judge Guan Yu's true appearance from it.
I also want to know how tall Guan Yu is. Guan Yu's height is not recorded in the history books. According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Guan Yu is nine feet tall, which is equivalent to 2. 17 meters according to the weights and measures of the Three Kingdoms period, and is considered to be tall now. However, due to the small intake of protein, the ancients were generally not very high. In romantic stories, the generals are all eight or nine feet tall and have a lot of water. If you dig the grave and see a small man who is 1.6 meters tall, you will be surprised! What is Guan Yu's actual height? We won't know until we open the coffin. Im really looking forward to it.
I wonder what Leng Yan saw? Romance of the Three Kingdoms describes that after Liu Guan and Zhang Taoyuan became sworn friends, Zhang Fei paid for weapons for everyone. Guan Yu was not polite at all. He hit a heavy and beautiful guy.
Eighty-two Jin in the Three Kingdoms period is equivalent to thirty-seven Jin now. Guan Yu is riding a horse, and he can hit almost forty pounds of iron guy in a circle, which can be said to be infinite strength.
According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, after Pan Zhang captured Guan Yu, he took the dragon crescent moon blade and the red rabbit horse for his own use. This statement is a bit unconvincing, because in ancient times, there were very few people who were 2. 17 meters tall, and not everyone could beat an iron guy who weighed 40 pounds. On the battlefield, generals fight with weapons that increase their hands. Therefore, the red hare may be taken away, and it is more likely that the knife will be left in the tomb.
It would be really cool if you could see the true face of the "cool-looking saw" during excavation.
Perhaps there are more discoveries, such as the Spring and Autumn Annals held by Guan Yu every day, which was compiled by Confucius for Lu? Is it Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals? Is it the biography of the Spring and Autumn Ram? Or is it like Zuo's Family Biography in the Three Kingdoms?
Buried underground, the historical truth will never be known. Excavating Guan Yu's tomb may lead to more discoveries, more surprises and more mysteries. Are you really not looking forward to it?
A large mausoleum is a treasure, but in the process of excavation, a stunning treasure suddenly lost its color and was destroyed in the process of preservation, so excavation of the mausoleum has become a forbidden area for archaeology, and it is an archaeological rule not to take the initiative to excavate it!
But as it turns out, the regulations of the archaeological session failed to make people understand. On April 14 this year, the biggest case of robbing an ancient tomb since the new China was pronounced in Chaoyang Court, Liaoning Province, and the principal offender was sentenced to death, and a large number of cultural relics of Hongshan period were sold wildly!
Guan Yu was a famous soldier in Shu and Han Dynasties, a warrior in China, sworn in Taoyuan, killed Hua Xiong with warm wine, fought against Lu Bu with three British forces, killed Wen Chou with one Yan Liang, killed six generals with five passes, and so on. But the ten tombs are all empty, which have existed since ancient times, so you can look all over Inner Mongolia for Genghis Khan's tomb, and there is no sign of it! Tons of mercury in Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum discouraged a captain, and the dry mausoleum was as solid as gold, while the tomb of Guan Yu may give the tomb robbers an opportunity, so it is inevitable for the state to carry out remedial excavation!
