The Xia Dynasty has existed for 400 years, why can’t it be dug up?

A Brief History of Five Thousand Years of History Translated by Xia Dynasty The reason why it is called Chao It’s because starting from the Xia Dynasty Our country’s history has entered the stage of national civilization Therefore, the Xia Dynasty was listed as the Zhao Dynasty in Shiji and has been recognized by later generations However, this is the first dynasty of China But it has troubled us for many years Not just because of the historical records about the Xia Dynasty unclear Inconsistency But even archaeological discoveries Let a group of scholars Engaged in endless debates and debates According to ancient bamboo records, Since the 17th Yuzhi Festival With a king and without a king 471 years old The Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasty project carried out at the end of the last century Sets the starting year of the Xia Dynasty at about 2070 BC More than 4,000 years ago But it's a long time ago It is not the main reason for the blurring of the Xia Dynasty century. Because Emperor Yao in the ancient history legend Because of the archaeological discovery of pottery Unearthed from the kiln of Hezhuwenwen And stripped off Myths and legends turned into historical facts Of course, about the relationship between Tao Si and Emperor Yao Because there is still a lack of evidence to close the loop Therefore, it cannot be finalized yet But whether it is from time or space Or look at the unearthed cultural relics Both Taosi and Yao can be said to be the ten cogs of the gear. 9 matched Regarding this, the leader of the Taosi archaeological team and Nu Used relatively cautious expressions The Taosi ruins are most likely to be Pingyang, the capital of Yao In fact, the emergence of the dawn of Chinese national civilization It may be even earlier than the Xia Dynasty we think Liangzhu ruins in Zhejiang province dating back more than 5,000 years Successfully applied for World Heritage mean Liangzhu as an early state civilization society in China Received international recognition So since the era of Emperor Yao was earlier than the Xia Dynasty, Even earlier in the Liangzhu period have been discovered by archaeologists It also confirms that Chinese civilization in an earlier historical stage National organizations have been introduced So why The Xia Dynasty lasted for more than 400 years in literary records But so hard to find Currently the only one that can be directly linked to Xia Culture archaeological culture It is the Erlitou culture of Yanshi, Henan Similar situation to Taosi ruins The Erlitou ruins also date from time On space and unearthed artifacts It is highly consistent with the Xia Dynasty recorded in the literature. It proves that before the emergence of business culture Daichi Nakahara There was indeed another highly developed widespread dynasty But the problem is The Erlitou culture has not yet been discovered. Even if it is a positive character like Xia The bigger problem is that The time limit of Erlitou culture Far from reaching the national production market of the Xia Dynasty Erlitou culture in terms of age Divided into four phases in Chapter 172: It’s just an ordinary settlement By the second period Only then did the palace handicraft workshop appear and a bronze carp musical instrument group The scale of the site has been expanded to 3 million square meters. That is, from this time on Erlitou Culture as an Archaeological Culture Only then did we break through the geographical restrictions There are signs of cross-regional social integration The so-called cross-regional integration That is to say China at this time No longer tied by blood ties The Neolithic Age with many kingdoms but developed into A mature state society organized along administrative lines But the age limit of Erlitou 27 But it points to 1750 B.C. At this time, the emergence of Zhengzhou Mall and Yanshi Mall Less than two hundred years ago In other words Regardless of whether self-evident texts can be unearthed from the Erlitou site It can only be regarded as a site of the middle and late Xia Dynasty. The current definition of the Erlitou site by archaeological experts It is also characterized as a capital city in the middle and late period. This also means The Xia Dynasty discovered by archeology so far can only be counted as half The other half has not been found yet Is there any It is possible that there are errors in the records of historical records such as the Bamboo Chronicle. The Xia Dynasty originally only had 200 years of national history. Its founding year It was originally around 1750 BC If we follow this assumption and push up Then it will bring about a series of chain reactions First of all, there is a time difference in the living years of Dayu. Dayu in Documentary Records He was a contemporary of Yao and Shun It was through controlling floods that Dayu Only then did he obtain the status of co-leader of the tribe from Emperor Shun. The living era of Yao and Shun Obviously it cannot be saved until around 1750 B.C. In fact, archeology has confirmed Taosi ruins declined in 2,000 B.C. Reduced to an ordinary settlement in 1900 BC So between Taosi and Erlitou There is a time difference of nearly two hundred years Secondly, there is evidence of a great flood According to the National Social Science Foundation Youth Project Phased research results of project number 15CKG 007 are shown Early around 1900 B.C. China appears A catastrophe characterized by a sharp decline in population From the Longshan Period to the Erlitou Period The entire middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River The total number of settlements dropped from 1,669 to 180 Determined based on flood scour marks on settlement remains The main culprit of this disaster It is the great flood recorded in history books But the timing of the floods According to the rise of Erlitou culture There is also a time difference of more than 100 years So there are scholars Trying to make up for the missing one or two hundred years Xinzhai culture before Erlitou culture and Henan Longshan Culture Also counts as lower culture This puts the upper limit of Xia culture in terms of time elongate By the end of the Longshan Culture around 1900 BC But a fact that cannot be ignored is that The emergence of Erlitou culture in Luoyang Basin Sudden It is not directly developed from Henan Longshan Culture archaeological display Erlitou ruins Lower level daily pottery and small burial customs From Henan Longshan Culture Example from Longshan Culture in southern Shanxi Symbols such as the word Chen on the jade pottery statue From Liangzhu culture Not only that Local cultural factors in Henan, Shandong and Hubei All for the formation of Erlitou culture Contributed genetic factors This also confirms again Erlitou Culture It is an archaeological culture created by many different ethnic groups. After gathering and merging in Erlitou newly created products And this archaeological discovery Also confirmed Erlitou It was indeed the core city of the wide-area royal power at that time. It is the center of national civilization So Before the rise of Erlitou culture in 1750 BC What is the scene like in the land of China? According to archaeological research, it is known After Liangzhu and before Erlitou Except for the Tao Temple in southern Shanxi and two fashionable super settlements in northern Shaanxi The land of China is still full of nations Most regional organizations Belong to big and small football gangs There is no wide-area royal power like Erlitou Culture The emergence of political power Professor Xu Hong, a famous archaeologist It was concluded in the writings that Around 2000 B.C. In two hundred years That is, the early Xia Dynasty in the literature Archaeological discoveries in the Central Plains region Different types of groups belong to each other War in Pyongyang Archaeologically No dynastic atmosphere corresponding to handed down documents can be seen This also means Although Dayu controlled floods Obtained the status of co-owner laid the foundation of the family and the world But the regime he established Still unable to transcend the state-seeking governance model The regime of Yu the Great and the world in the era of Yao and Shun not fundamentally different What Dayu established was not a dynasty or national civilization. And Fang Guo, who is still bound by the Xiahou clan's bloodline, Another Emperor's Discussion of the Xia Dynasty So why Zhou Documents from ancient times Will Dayu and Qi be regarded as the founders of the Xia Dynasty? This is because Xia Dynasty In the transitional stage between state civilization and national civilization It is difficult to define when it becomes a state When did you enter the dynasty? When descendants trace the lineage of the next generation, It just started with the famous leader Dayu Arrange downwards Even if archaeology proves it in the future This lineage is accurate That can only show that Dayu was an ancestor of Xia Since there are no detailed records in history books The social organization of leaders of different generations in different periods What is the structure of the government? so We cannot just conclude that Yu and Qi are kings The regime they established was the Xia Dynasty This situation is somewhat similar to that of the Qin Dynasty The Qin Dynasty also evolved from states but if There is no record about King Qin Yingzheng destroying the six kingdoms Qin Xianggong relied solely on the traces of descendants As well as the deeds of Qin Mugong, Qin Huiwen, Qin Wangzheng and other deeds It is also difficult for us to determine Which monarch was the ruler of Qin when he was in power? Which monarch was in power when Qin became the Qin Dynasty?
