Tell me about the most mysterious and powerful ancient tomb in the history of China.

I found the answer online, hehe, I also learned a lot myself.

Mausoleum with the most funerary objects: Qin Mausoleum.

How many funerary objects are there in Qin tomb? Sima Qian said, "Strange things are full of treasures." According to the latest archaeological data, the actual length of underground palace in Qinling Mountains is 260m from east to west, north to south 160m, and the total area is 4 1600m2, which is equivalent to the size of five modern standard football fields. The underground palace is so big that the funerary objects inside are estimated to be "full of artifacts", and the number is amazing. Hundreds of thousands of pieces of jewelry and cultural relics were buried in the coffin where Qin Shihuang was buried; The vast terracotta warriors and horses pits are even more shocking to the world, and they are known as the "eighth wonder of the world", which also shows the position of the Qin Mausoleum as the "first mausoleum".

However, some scholars believe that the funerary objects in the Qin tombs underground palace may not be so rich. The reason is that in 206 BC, the Qin Mausoleum was excavated. At that time, Xiang Yu used 300,000 people to retaliate against the extortion of the king of Qin, "robbing his mausoleum and burning his palace, and the animals continued for 30 days." Except this time, later generations never stopped excavating the Qin tomb. For example, in the early years of the Republic of China, warlord Sun Lianzhong had the idea of Qin Tomb. But it also shows from the side that the funerary objects of the Qin tombs are rich. It is also said that the underground palace of the Qin tombs has never been opened. Xiang Yu wanted to dig the Qin Mausoleum very much, but because the Qin Mausoleum was too strong, he failed, leaving only two "overlord ditches". The archaeological exploration of the Qin Mausoleum has been completed, which initially proves that the underground palace of the Qin Mausoleum is still intact. During the exploration, it was found that there were two stolen caves with a diameter of 1 m, but the depth was only 9 meters, which was far from the underground palace. At present, most of the unearthed cultural relics and stolen goods are buried in burial pits or tunnels, and the treasures in the underground palace of Qin Mausoleum are incalculable.

It is impossible to estimate, so it is mysterious. Hmm. How interesting

But considering comprehensively, what is even more mysterious is: Wu Zetian's.

The mystery of Wu Zetian's mausoleum remains to be solved. Experts explain various speculations in detail.

Recently, a news about "there are 500 tons of cultural relics buried underground in Ganling" made the community focus on the mysterious Ganling again. Subsequently, Shaanxi Ganling Museum held a special press conference to clarify this issue, and made it clear that the statement that "Ganling has 500 tons of treasures" violates the common sense of cultural relics and archaeology and has no scientific basis. In fact, as the only unearthed tomb among the eighteen tombs in the Tang Dynasty, there have been various speculations about Ganling. Is the Preface to Lanting Collection buried in it? How big is Ganling? ..... With the continuous development of archaeological work in Ganling, all kinds of mysteries about Ganling will be uncovered one by one.

Puzzle 1: 500 tons of dried tomb treasure?

The latest news about Ganling is the recently discussed "500 tons of hidden treasure in Ganling". Who put forward this figure? In this report, it is proposed that 500 tons of treasure is hidden in Ganling, which was originally proposed by a writer who had a long interview in Ganling. Although this man is not an archaeologist, his point of view is not unreasonable. If the stone gates, sarcophagus and other cultural relics in Ganling are added with common funerary objects such as gold and silver treasures, calligraphy and painting silks and satins, the weight of cultural relics in Ganling may reach 500 tons. The report also pointed out that when Tang Gaozong was buried, the value of funerary objects accounted for one third of the national fiscal revenue. More than 20 years later, Wu Zetian died, and her son entered Ganling with a third of the country's gold and silver jewelry.

Expert opinion: it is unscientific to talk about tons of cultural relics.

The reporter interviewed Liu Xiangyang, director of the business department of Ganling Museum. He said that any formal cultural relic archaeologist will not call cultural relics by tons, but generally by the number of pieces or groups, and it is impossible to call them by tons. As for the specific treasure hidden in Ganling, it is only speculation at present.

Liu Qingzhu, former director of the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said that if some people have good wishes, it is understandable for them to say so, but this statement is groundless.

How big is the underground palace of Ganling?

In people's impression, Ganling is not only magnificent in appearance, solid in architecture, but also rich in artifacts. Because of its uniqueness, its scale should be quite spectacular.

In 1960s and 1970s, the tombs of Princess Yongtai, Prince Yide and Prince Zhang Huai were excavated respectively. Some scholars and experts believe that according to the specifications of the tombs unearthed in that year, these three tombs are the largest of all the tombs in the Tang Dynasty. They are all double stone tombs in the front room and the back room. There are stone pagodas in the tomb, and the tomb is about 80 meters. Based on this calculation, compared with the largest contemporary tomb excavated now, the imperial tomb is definitely beyond this range, so the scale of the whole underground palace of Ganling should be said to be quite large.

Expert opinion: The underground palace of Ganling is about 300 cubic meters.

According to the calculation, Mr. Chen Jingyuan, an architectural scholar in Nanjing, inferred from the construction period of Ganling underground palace that it is probably not as big as people think. He believes that whether the project scale of Ganling underground palace can reach the degree predicted by people, the most critical issue is the construction period of Ganling underground palace.

According to some historical records, Chen Jingyuan thinks that Tang Gaozong didn't build a mausoleum for himself before his death. He believes that the construction time of Ganling Underground Palace is eight months from Tang Gaozong's death to the coffin's return to Chang 'an.

In such a short time, on the bedrock of Liangshan, how much underground space can be excavated by digging secret passages with artificial hammers? According to the construction time and progress of Liu Sheng Tomb in Mancheng, Hebei Province and Hanwang Tomb in Shizishan, Xuzhou, after deducting the pre-preparation and post-arrangement of Ganling, the time really used for the excavation of Ganling underground palace is at most 7 months. Even if 1.4 cubic meters is excavated every day, the space excavated inside the mountain is only about 300 cubic meters, which is the building scale that the Ganling underground palace can form. Compared with the Zhaoling underground palace of Emperor Taizong, this scale is completely "dwarfed".

Puzzle 3 "Lanting Preface" is hidden in Ganling?

Tang Gaozong, Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were buried in Ganling. According to records, when Tang Gaozong died, his last words buried his favorite calligraphy and painting in the tomb. According to historical records, the Preface to Lanting said in the testamentary edict of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin that it should be placed under his head. In other words, Preface to Lanting should be in Zhaoling, not Ganling. However, Wen Tao, the secretariat of Yaozhou in the Five Dynasties, stole Zhaoling, but there was no Preface to Lanting in the list of unearthed treasures, so it was speculated that the Preface to Lanting was hidden in Ganling. Moreover, in the folk rumors in Ganling area, it has long been said that Wu Zetian was buried with the preface to Lanting.

Expert opinion: paper products are difficult to preserve.

Liu Xiangyang, director of the business department of Ganling Museum, said in an interview that whether the Preface to the Lanting Pavilion is in Ganling is still only the speculation of some scholars, and there is no conclusion yet.

When asked by Sina users whether the Preface to the Lanting Pavilion was in Ganling, Liu Qingzhu said that the speculation of the Preface to the Lanting Pavilion in Ganling was only a good wish, and it was recorded in history. For example, there are some calligraphy works in the funerary objects of Emperor Taizong's Zhaoling.

Where is the Preface to Lanting, which has disappeared for over 0/000 years/kloc? Do people have a chance to witness its true face? Liu Qingzhu said, don't be too optimistic. Personally, he thinks that according to what was said at that time, calligraphy works have always been based on paper, not bamboo slips, and there are only tombs in the Tang Dynasty that can preserve paper products.

Under the climatic conditions in Guanzhong area, thousands of ancient tombs have been excavated, or thousands, including those of Han Dynasty, Tang Dynasty or more than 1000 years ago. None of the paper in the tomb can be well preserved, and the finer the paper, the more difficult it is to preserve.

Puzzle 4:

The internal structure of Ganlin has not been proved.

Located 80km northwest of Xi 'an, Ganling is the place where Tang Gaozong Li Zhi and Zhou Wu Zetian were buried in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. It is the only tomb of two emperors in China, and also the only one that has not been excavated in the Tang Dynasty. It is known as the "crown of Tang tombs". This situation of "two emperors and two titles, a couple buried in a mausoleum" is rare in the world, and the cultural relics on the ground, such as stone watches, stone horses, stone statues and wordless monuments, are spectacular.

Speaking of the ancient Egyptian pyramids in 3000 BC, the inscription reads: "The great and immortal Pharaoh watches the magnificent sky, sunrise and stars here, and the great and immortal Pharaoh is with heaven and earth." -Strong! How great the imagination and verve of the ancient Egyptians and the pharaohs, the owners of the pyramids!

In addition, Ganling is located 6 kilometers north of Ganxian County and 80 kilometers away from Xi City. It is the mausoleum of Tang Gaozong Li Zhi and Wu Zetian, and it is called Ganling because it is located in the northwest of Chang 'an and Bagua County.

Since Tang Taizong, most emperors in the Tang Dynasty have taken mountains as their tombs, with Ganling as the most typical one. The number of statues in Ganling, the length of Shinto, the size of the top of the tomb, and the wide land area are all beyond the reach of the previous imperial tombs. Ganling is built on Liangshan Mountain and is conical. The main peak of Liangshan (North Peak) and two peaks in the south are taken as the skeleton of the layout. The northern peak is conical, with an altitude of l047.6 meters, which is the location of the mausoleum. The two peaks in the south, facing east and west, constitute the natural entrance to the cemetery. Parking lot location: 790 meters above sea level (only GPS data, no 1956 Yellow Sea height system. But it seems that many people in China regard the American GPS standard as the legal height system. In this way, the earth-rock seal of the mausoleum is at least 200 meters high. The whole cemetery covers an area of 40 kilometers in Fiona Fang, surrounded by 17 tombs of princes and nobles. Many stone statues are isomorphic with the tall mountain of Liangshan North Peak, forming the majestic momentum of Ganling. After the war, only stone tablets were left.

Judging from the specifications of the Seven Monuments, Wu Zetian was buried at the highest peak in Guanzhong, and its mausoleum itself was magnificent, and its height and scale even surpassed that of Qin Shihuang (not counting being buried with him), and it devoured the universe with the sun, the moon, Jin Mu, fire, water and soil as its companions! Moreover, in the information age mentioned below, it can still lead the way! So verve, few people can surpass it since ancient times! In this way, logically, it can be inferred that Wu Zetian's tablet without words must be symmetrical with the mausoleum and the seven-section tablet, that is, as the saying goes, "holding it down" must be a great achievement without saying anything, leaving it to future generations to comment. This explanation and boldness of vision are credible.

Other inferences, such as insufficient war time and unintentional inscriptions, can't stand the scrutiny on the spot. Furthermore, are the titles of people who write "Da Zhou", "Emperor" or "Empress of the Tang Dynasty" short-lived? It was not Wu Zetian's intention to write these two. It's too difficult, so I won't write.

A roaring lion; Guo Moruo 1962 Inscription Monument. Its majesty and majesty are beyond description.

Reach the top of Ganling Mountain. Here is a stone cast with molten iron. Fog on one side, rain behind, and a big ditch down. Standing here, I feel supernatural, clouds are floating, like fog, like rain, and like wind.

In the rain and fog, the number and signal strength of GPS receiving satellites "stand here and keep photos" at the scene. How spectacular!

The GPS system has 24 positioning stars in the world. At the top of Ganling, at an altitude of 1046 meters, the GPS actually shows that it can receive 10 satellite signals! I have hardly seen such a situation, and the signal strength is still full! I am surprised!

It has been more than a thousand years since the Tang Dynasty to the popularization of information technology, and it is still incredible to choose this highland! ~ ~ high! Really high!

It should be noted that in the hinterland of China, such a geographical location is rare. Generally, 3-5 satellites can be received, and the intensity is uncertain. The author has only encountered such a situation that 10 positioning stars appear on the ceiling of the ship deck in the vast sea at the same time, which is extremely difficult to see in general places. This means: within a radius of dozens of kilometers next to Ganling, no tall mountains and buildings can stop it from leading to space and looking around!

The road down the mountain is unfathomable.

-"Bury me at the top of the mountain", always looking at the sun, the moon and the stars.

Gradually understand the layout and field experience of the whole dry mausoleum, and begin to admire Wu Zetian for choosing such an open place for herself in the widely praised Guanzhong Plain. Until today's information age, her unique vision, grand vision and mind are still amazing. She can overlook her vast territory and best receive information from the vast space! Its ambition to deal with the universe, stars, sun and moon, heaven and earth, mountains and rivers is no less than the pyramid inscriptions of ancient Egyptian pharaohs. Very arrogant! Worth the first place in history
