Due to the failure to implement protection funds as soon as possible，Most brick factory workers have been disbanded，But the brick kiln is still burning。Archaeological team members doing indoor cleaning at the workstation，Agree to the left-behind migrant workers to take some more soil from areas with a thin cultural layer，Finish the kiln installation。What a coincidence，We have not found important cultural relics in several years，At this time, they were discovered by migrant workers。July 18, 1986，Migrant workers found dozens of jade articles while collecting soil，The archaeological team immediately protected the site，Collected all cultural relics on the same day。Approved by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage，We then organized a formal excavation，Discovered "Sacrifice Pit No. 1"。August 14, 1986，The "No. 2 Sacrifice Pit" was discovered and excavated，Extremely exquisite and unique copper unearthed、Gold、Jade、More than two thousand stone tools in total。The brick factory finally stopped production and was demolished，The Bet365 app download ruins have been fully protected。

"Sleeping for Thousands of Years，Wake up and shock the world”，The discovery of the Sanxingdui sacrificial pit shocked the world，“News from Western China，The findings there are astonishing”，“More extraordinary than the famous Chinese Terracotta Warriors”，“This is truly a miracle of the world”。Like "open sesame"，Opened the mysterious treasure house of Bet365 app download Shu，Thus reappearing a lost civilization in front of the world。

In those days，Everyone is in high excitement，Busy, tired and happy。During that year，I have been to Bet365 app download, Guanghan more than thirty times，But you can only stay down there for two or three days at most。It was midsummer when the sacrificial pit was excavated，For safety and coolness，The excavation team often works late at night。Midnight on July 27，Chen De'an suddenly knocked on my door and said loudly: "Amazing discovery！Amazing discovery！The golden staff comes out，There is also a life-size bronze head。"We immediately organized people to rush to the scene，Since then, a new page of Bet365 app download archeology has been opened。

The naming of “Sacrifice Pit”，Bet365 app download was proposed by the two team leaders on the spot，After carefully studying various possibilities，Gived full support，I think this is a more reasonable and broad formulation。

　　The naming of "Sanxingdui Bet365 app download and Ancient Country Site"

The discovery of the sacrificial pit further proves the academic value of Sanxingdui archeology。Mr. Su Bingqi said at the "Annual Meeting of the Chinese Archaeological Society" held in Shenyang in October 1986: "It should be considered that it may be an Bet365 app download culture in Sichuan、Bet365 app download City、Research on the topics of Bet365 app download countries，its meaning、Working method、The prospects are very different”，"Their latest discovery，Of course it has taken the research on this topic a big step forward”。

At the same time，Mr. Su reminds us again and again to “jump out of the ‘pit’”，“Plan our tasks from a long-term perspective”。May 1987，At the "Archaeological Excavation Symposium on the Sanxingdui Twelve Bridges Site" held in Guanghan, Chengdu，Mr. Su said again: "Everyone talked about the 'city' from two pits，What is buried in the pit，What does it mean，Is it a city，How is it inside and outside the city，I think it’s better to ask the question from a regional perspective... Bashu culture has its own system，Characteristics are not superficial，But internally...this period of work in Sichuan is of epoch-making significance，Look at the two pits and the city on this basis，It might as well be said that I saw the ancient culture, ancient city and ancient country of Sichuan。”Mr. Su in his inscription for the meeting，Officially named it "Sanxingdui Bet365 app download and Ancient Country Site"。The Sanxingdui Museum that was later built has always used "ancient cities, ancient countries, and ancient cultures" as its basic display theme。

　1988，The Sanxingdui site has been identified as a “National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit”。In order to clarify the nature and layout of the ruins，Approved by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage，We conducted trial excavations on the surrounding Bet365 app download city walls。From 1989 to 1995，After 6 excavations，It is determined that there was a "Sanxingdui Bet365 app download City" with an area of ​​3.6 million square meters here three to four thousand years ago，It is a unique regional civilization center in the process of Chinese civilization，Thus, Sanxingdui archeology has been elevated to the level of exploring the "origin of Bet365 app download Chinese civilization in a pluralistic unity"。

Mr. Su Bingqi was the director of the Archeology Teaching and Research Office when I was studying at Peking University，He also went to Anyang Yin Ruins to guide our archaeological internship。This time in Bet365 app download，Can get his direct help and advice，It has benefited us a lot。Detailed situation and results，We later wrote a commemorative article of more than 20,000 words, "A Vibrant Discipline Growth Point—Bet365 app download Archeology under the Guidance of Mr. Su Bingqi"，Published in the book "Su Bingqi and Contemporary Chinese Archeology" (Science Press, 2001 edition)。

　Exploration and Bet365 app download

My archaeological research on Bet365 app download，It often starts with reporting work，Have also written some "reviews" and "overviews" for cultural relics and archaeological books and anthologies，20th Century Sichuan Archeology、Review and Prospect of Sichuan Archeology in the 1980s，And some special articles，Gradually formed my own views on some of these issues。

　1990，In preparation for participating in the 1991 "Annual Meeting of the Chinese Archaeological Society"，I wrote the article "Archaeological Discovery of Sanxingdui and Research on the Bet365 app download History of Bashu"，Proposed "The Development of Bashu as Reflected by Archaeological Materials"，“It has gone through a historical process of more than three thousand years from about 4800 years ago to 2000 years ago”，“Can be divided into five stages”，And believes that the Sanxingdui Bet365 app download country "used sacrificial activities as a symbol of national authority、An important form to maintain the unity of national ideology and organization”，“The organic convergence of multiple cultural components，Exhibits the social structure characteristics of the Sanxingdui Bet365 app download country that developed from tribal alliances"，“Cultural customs that attach importance to the modeling of human figures, animals and plants，Created the distinctive artistic characteristics of Bashu civilization" and other three significant features，Further combination with historical data，The preliminary conclusion is drawn that "the new archaeological discoveries confirm that several processes of the development of Shu history in classics and legends are generally credible"。

This article was first published in the "Sichuan Cultural Relics·Sanxingdui Bet365 app download Shu Culture Research Collection" in 1992，Won the Sichuan Provincial Government Social Science Achievement Award。Mr. Li Xueqin saw it，Invited me to participate in the compilation of the "Early Chinese Civilization Series", a key publication of the country's "Ninth Five-Year Plan" edited by him，Let me write a volume called "Sanxingdui Culture and Bashu Civilization"。He asked us to “mainly focus on new archaeological materials”，Start the exploration of early Chinese regional civilizations by region，"Strive to write your own masterpiece"。Under the specific guidance of Mr. Li，I conducted more in-depth and systematic research，Mainly based on archaeological materials，Written an overview of the Bet365 app download history of Sichuan from the Paleolithic Age to the mid-Western Han Dynasty，It took more than ten years，This monograph of more than 600,000 words was finally published by Jiangsu Education Press in 2005。

，Sichuan People's Publishing House 2004 edition)，Income 28 articles，Researched the archeology of Sanxingdui in 7 topics。Mr. Li Xueqin wrote the preface to the collection，He said: "It can be asserted，If there is no in-depth study of Bashu culture，It cannot form a complete picture of the origin and development of Chinese civilization。Considering the characteristics of Bashu culture，And its relationship with the Central Plains、West、Various relationships between Bet365 app download cultures in the south，Many problems in the study of Chinese civilization，I’m afraid it must be solved by Bashu culture。”
