The tomb of the princess of the Tang Dynasty was unearthed in Shaanxi, wearing a golden crown. What's the touching story behind it?
In the cultural history of more than 5,000 years in China, there have been so many dynasties, so many ancient relics and cultures have been left for our future generations to refer to. Especially after the founding of New China, the state set up a cultural relics department, and gained a deeper understanding of the management and protection of cultural relics. Because many grave robbers destroyed many ancient tombs and took away many cultural relics, experts took on more important tasks, generally carrying out rescue excavations, with the aim of protecting the original state.

I think most people have seen costume dramas, especially now costume dramas are more popular. We always envy the hero and heroine for having such loyal and single-minded feelings in them, but we also doubt whether there were such feelings at that time. After all, people judge the nature of a thing according to their own subjective consciousness, so in the face of our modern life today, people's feelings are warm and cold, and interests are supreme, so we will feel that these feelings in ancient times do not exist. For example, Meng Jiangnu, who was left by the ancients, cried at the Great Wall, which has always been a folklore story of butterfly lovers, and so on. These loves have been passed down to this day, but fewer and fewer people believe them.

However, because of the development of archaeology, the historical gap has been gradually filled, and many cultural relics about love have been unearthed, which let us know the truth of the story behind it. At 20 1 1, a university in Xi, Shaanxi Province was building a dormitory building. At that time, the construction workers were digging and suddenly found an ancient tomb below, so they reported it to the local authorities. Later, experts arrived, and after rescue excavation and investigation, they learned that this was a tomb of a princess in the Tang Dynasty.

The truth about the identity of the tomb owner slowly began to be revealed. His name is, yes, the fifth generation of childe, her husband, Xu of the Tang Dynasty, yes, the university student Hou. When the princess was buried, the specifications were also very high. The tomb pit alone reached nearly 300 square meters, and your experts also found that this tomb pit seems to be a nail. However, because this tomb is close to Zhaoling, the tomb of the Tang Dynasty was the most seriously stolen in the dynasty, so this tomb in Li Shu did not escape the hands of grave robbers, and there were traces of theft.

But no one knows, at that time, because of the earthquake in Xi' an before, the tomb collapsed, so it also prevented grave robbers from entering from the side. Therefore, there are many precious cultural relics in it, and archaeologists can't dig up thousands of Tang tri-colors, as well as various jade articles, gold and silver jewelry and so on. All these are priceless, and the most classic cultural relic is that experts saw a particularly large crown on Li Shu's head.

This crown is 25 meters long, all made of gold and precious stones, weighs 8 pounds and has more than 490 precious stones on its head. It has existed for so many years, and it is still so glamorous when it is taken out. But ordinary people can't wear such a big headdress. Obviously, someone made it specially for her after her death. At that time, a 300-word memorial tomb with the surname Hou was found in this tomb. In this article, we can know that Li Shu died in childbirth. At that time, Hou was very sad to see his newborn child and his wife leave. In addition, he was busy with official business for a long time before serving in North Korea and showed little concern for his wife. Even on their wedding day, he was still correcting official documents in the study, which was really shabby compared with other princesses.

But in order to make up for his wife, he spent all his financial resources to build such a beautiful crown for his wife, so this crown is not only priceless, but also priceless in love. Now it is in Shaanxi Museum.
