The lush Liu Zhao Mountains have been echoing the leisurely winds of the Middle Ages. Related to the bronze drum, the story of the land of Sanqi rings gently from Aki, the land of fish and rice. On the one hand, it is covered with bronze drums of the Warring States that have passed through more than 2,000 years of time and space, quietly showing the charm of the Yanshan Mountains, which is quaint, thick and shiny.
Strange ancient roads, mottled slates and the bells of the cavalry string together, connecting the Liu Zhao Mountains with the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau and the ancient Yunnan into a picture of the Yunnan-Guangxi Corridor. Drumming the mountains and forests, the ancient rhyme spreads the sound. The deep and sonorous sound of bronze drums and the passing goshawk convey a long civilization.
In the history of civilization in the ancient Central Plains for more than 3,000 years, bronze drums and Baiyue people were glorious. The Wuman nationality gradually separated from Baiyue nationality later became an important branch of Yi nationality. The main villages in Yanshan County, Yunnan Province are an important historical segment in the development history of Yi people in the Central Plains.
Historical events and cultural phenomena related to copper run through the birth, development and rise of the whole Central Plains civilization. In modern times, when people look at Yanshan Mountain, almost all of them simply stay on the "South God Grass-Sanqi". The ancient road built by bluestone outside the general's dike in the suburb covered with Yugong cement, the rock paintings of the plain mountain village that still exist for ever and convey the ancient flavor, and the bronze drums unearthed in the villages of Yanshan County in 1997, which were identified as "Wanjiaba style", have opened up the charm of the Warring States period when Chinese civilization struggled to rise more than 2,000 years ago.

Today, the big bronze drum lying quietly in Wenshan Museum is simple and vigorous. The human history of the Yanshan Mountains has been pushed to the middle of the Warring States period more than two thousand years ago, that is, from 200 BC to 100 BC. These bronze drums, together with the rock paintings of 1980 Pingyuan mountain village, became the evidence of Yanshan ancient civilization. The discovery of these cultural relics and objects means that the history of civilization in Yanshan County is synchronized with the whole country in some aspects. In ancient times, people lived in the Yanshan Mountains.
The major bronze drums are not as richly decorated as the Beiliu bronze drums 200 years later, and there is no lamp body that radiates light outwards, and there is no elaborate production process. It is simple and simple in shape, but it is also a great antique that attracts worldwide attention. Very real, no illusion.

These villages are located in the Liu Zhao Mountains. Liu Zhao, located in the southeast of Yunnan Province, is a mountain range on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau in China. Liuzhaoshan is the main mountain range in Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous Prefecture. The main peak of Liu Zhao is Yangxiong Mountain, which is 2502 meters above sea level and located in Qiubei County. Liu Zhao mountainous area is karst landform, with mountainous and stony land, barren land and water shortage. Most food crops are corn, but wheat and a small amount of rice are also planted. The most famous cash crop is Panax notoginseng. Qiubei County and Yanshan County are connected by mountains and rivers. In Liuzhao Mountain, which stretches for more than 500 kilometers, Agui Township in Yanshan County and Bark Township in Qiubei County are closely connected. Liuzhao Mountain, with a length of 150 km, in Yanshan County, has a high coverage rate of ancient vegetation, and there are 20 kinds of precious minerals such as raw coal, manganese ore, gold mine, lead-zinc mine, bentonite and agate underground.
Since ancient times, Yi, Zhuang and Miao nationalities have lived in Yanshan. In the process of barter exchange for more than two thousand years, Yanshan County has become an important node on the commercial plank road connecting Honghe, Zhaotong, Sichuan, Guizhou and Guangxi. Since ancient times, it has been the "Temo Ancient Road" that goes directly to Kunming and the "Tanzhou Ancient Road" that goes directly to Guangxi, and it has also become an important part of the "Yunnan-Guangxi Corridor".
According to historical records, during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Heman tribe appeared in the mountainous area of Liu Zhao in southeastern Yunnan. After the rise of Nanzhao, the Hani people in various places directly belonged to Nanzhao, and together with the Yi people in northeast and south Yunnan, they were called 37 barbarians, including Yuan Yin (Yuanjiang), Situo (Honghe), Xichu (Jinping Yuanyang), Robbie (Lvchun), Mo Wei (Qiubei, Luxi and Guangnan) and Qiang County (Wenshan). The Hani people in the mountainous areas of Liu Zhao are the most powerful in Qiang County (Wenshan, Yanshan and Xichou), and their Lord Longhaiji "has always been served by all the foreigners" (see the new edition of Yunnan Tongzhi 174 "Tusi Kao Hua Kai House"), which unified the lords of all ministries. Song Huang You was ordered by the Song Dynasty to command the mountainous area of Liu Zhao, and he was the supreme master of southeast Yunnan.

According to the county records, the nationalities living in Aji Township are mainly Han, Yi, Zhuang and Miao, and the Hani recorded in historical materials should have migrated to Honghe earlier and integrated into the local Hani. At present, there is no evidence of this difference or large-scale migration. Gan Long's "Hua Kai Fu Zhi" records that Liu Zhaoshan's "fertile land" at that time did not seem to be caused by "one side's soil and water can't support one side". The unearthed bronze drums directly proved that the population of Aki area and its surrounding areas tended to be dense at that time.
The main bronze drum is used to play as a drum during wartime or tribal meetings, and it is also used to hold items at ordinary times. This should show that the society is stable, there is no war, and tribal leaders and tribal people have been in a state of peaceful farming for a long time. A large number of literature records and some archaeological data prove that when nobles or chiefs of the southern minorities in China use bronze drums, they first regard them as symbols of rights and wealth. The bronze drum is as important to the southern aristocrats as the bronze tripod is to the central plains aristocrats. The big bronze drum should also prove that it was a region with a prosperous population, a large family and developed agriculture.
The main bronze drums initially show the historical features of the region and even the whole Yanshan County and its surrounding areas in the late Spring and Autumn Period and the early Warring States Period. According to today's geological survey, there is no record of copper deposits in Yanshan Mountain, and Dongchuan, 400 kilometers away, was the largest copper supplier in China during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period and even in modern times. Today, there is a "Zhuge Mountain" in the village committee on the outskirts of Jiangna Town, Yanshan County. According to legend, it was named by the local people when Zhuge Liang led his troops to fight in Yunnan. Legend has it that Zhuge Liang brought the bronze drum and its manufacturing technology to Yunnan. The six-sided bronze drums unearthed in Yunnan, including the major bronze drums, and the No.263 bronze drum in Guangxi Museum, as well as the reverse and horizontal books of Kong Jun, all appeared in various patterns. Many experts have confirmed the rationality of this speculation. However, there are too many historical materials and cultural relics to prove that the ancient bronze civilization in Yunnan, including the big bronze drum, did not inherit the copper culture in Shanxi and other Central Plains areas, but was juxtaposed. In other words, Yunnan copper culture is self-contained. These bronze drums have proper proportion of copper and tin, excellent smelting and casting technology, and have reached a quite amazing level in technology.

Throughout the ages, it is impossible to explore the mystery of the integration of the big bronze drum with the military, economic, cultural and political affairs of the residents at that time, the surrounding areas and even further regions. Historically, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the major economies were not prosperous and the culture was at a low level of development. Bronze drums are one of the few cultural relics that can reflect the characteristics of economic and social development at that time. At that time, the major transportation and water conservancy levels were underdeveloped, and they were completely in the farming era that fell behind the same period. According to legend, 2600 years ago, Du Mu, the grandson of Wu Laocuo, came to Ronnie near Dongchuan. After crossing the river, 1 1 brothers, including Wu Laocuo, split up and parted ways. Only Wulaocuo stayed and passed down as the later Yi people, and then there was the legend of the "six branches" of the Yi people in Zhaotong, Yunnan, which may also have formed the overall migration and migration of the Aguihani people.
Honghe tin mine has a long history of mining and smelting, and Dongchuan copper culture has a long history. Whether it is Zhuge Liang Nanping or the "six branches" of Yi people, these historical factors have laid a historical possibility for colleges and universities to have bronze drum culture.
The bronze drum shows the rich history of the Yanshan Mountains since ancient times, and tells people the long history of ethnic changes and cultural development during the two thousand years of historical changes of the Temo Ancient Road, the Tanzhou Ancient Road and the Yunnan-Guangxi Corridor. The lush Liu Zhao Mountains have been echoing the leisurely winds of the Middle Ages. On the one hand, the bronze drums filled with the ancient customs of the Warring States period, which rose by a group of heroes, have passed through more than two thousand years of time and space, quietly showing the wild and ancient flavor of Yanshan Shan Ye, and the heavy and shining wind is eternal.

It has something to do with bronze drums. Rugged ancient roads, mottled slates and a string of cavalry bells make the Liu Zhao Mountains, Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau and ancient Yunnan become a picture of the Yunnan-Guangxi Corridor. Drumming the mountains and forests, the ancient rhyme spreads the sound. The deep and sonorous sound of bronze drums and the passing goshawk convey a long civilization. The caravan with the "southern sacred grass" left a long shadow, from here to the sea, to the plain and to the world. The Yi people have been working in the dark for a long time, and the Zhuang people have turned over the mountain. The passionate Lusheng of the Miao family, carrying the "grass dance" of hope and harvest in the coming year, has solidified into ethereal sketches and ancient ballads.
The rock paintings in ancient plain mountain villages, the crumbling fortress pillars, the inscriptions on the fantastic cave in the image, the stone tablets on Yanshan Mountain, the ruins of Jiangjundi in the suburbs of Jiang Na, and the tomb of Li Yingzhen in Zhuge Mountain all convey the bronze drum writing civilization and the battle to defend the homeland in the trade of Yunnan-Guangxi Corridor. A wisp of smoke from the kitchen during the Warring States period fell into the highway network connecting the world and the sea; Melodious "Sanqi Flowers Waiting for You" drifted away from the "hometown of Sanqi" with the percussion of ancient bronze drums, and penetrated into more magical land after more than two thousand years.
