1979,Cultural relics workers collected a golden phoenix bird crown from Harawusu Maoli Tugacha, Horqin Left Back Banner, Zhelim League, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (now Tongliao City)。It is punched and riveted with gold pieces,One wing is slightly damaged。Phoenix Bird holds its head high and chest high,Spreading wings and tail,Standing on the arc-shaped gold piece。The head and identity are riveted together,14 more holes punched out bet365 sports body,Two holes on the head for eyes。The wings are cut directly from gold sheets,Insert into the belly bet365 sports phoenix。Legs made into flat strips,One end is connected to the root bet365 sports wing,The other end is riveted on the arc-shaped gold sheet。Phoenix tail is triangular,Make tail feathers spread。Tail、The wings and discs under the feet have dot-shaped patterns that rush out from the bottom up。Among them,The dots on the tail and wings are triangular,The dot pattern on the disc under the foot is radial。A diameter of about 0 is punched out around the tail and wings respectively.1cm hole,Put gold thread through the hole,Hanging diameter is about 0.8cm round gold piece,5 pieces on each tail and wings,15 pieces in total,Now incomplete,Only 11 pieces left。Four small holes are symmetrically punched out on the circular gold piece at the foot,for fixation。5cm in length,Tonggao 5.3cm,Weight 18 grams。

In the previous autumn of 1978,A Xianbei tomb group was discovered here,The cultural relics unearthed from the tomb were immediately lost or destroyed。This golden phoenix bird crown is from this tomb group。Comparison by the collector based on two pottery pots produced together with the golden phoenix crown ornament,It is believed that the Maoli Tu Tomb Group belongs to the Xianbei Tomb Group from the early to mid-Eastern Han Dynasty,And because bet365 sports unearthed golden phoenix bird,Indicates that the tomb group is of a higher level,Possibly the tomb of a Xianbei noble。(Zhao Yaxin: "Xianbei golden phoenix bird crown found in Maolitu, Kezuohou Banner","Cultural Relics" No. 7, 1999) and later scholars based on the tomb shape、Comparative study of funerary objects,Combined with relevant historical research results,It is further inferred that the clan bet365 sports Maoli Tu Tomb Group is Murong Xianbei,The era is from the end bet365 sports 2nd century to the first half bet365 sports 3rd century。(Sun Wei: "Research on Xianbei Archeology and Culture",Science Press 2007 Edition,Page 54-56)

In recent years,With Murong Xianbei、Continuously deepening research on the bet365 sports regime during the Sixteen Kingdoms period,Especially the problem of Murong Xianbei’s sinicization,We have some new insights into this golden phoenix bird crown。

 The name of the country "bet365 sports" is closely related to swallows

Murong Xianbei was the Xianbei tribe that established the most political power during the Sixteen Kingdoms period,Except Tuyuhun,Other regimes will sooner or later depend on the times,respectively Qian bet365 sports、Houyan、Western bet365 sports and Nanyan。Among them,The founders of the latter three are all descendants of the Murong family of the former bet365 sports royal family,Therefore, Qianyan is regarded as Zhengshuo。As for Qian bet365 sports,As ​​early as its founder Murong Jun’s grandfather Murong Xin served as the cavalry general of the Western Jin Dynasty、Liaodong County Duke Shi,His subordinates made a request to the Western Jin Dynasty: "It is appropriate for the generals and others to respect the Zhou Dynasty from afar,near early Han Dynasty,Enter Fengxian and become King of bet365 sports。""Yuan Zun Zhou Shi" refers to the death of Duke Zhao in bet365 sports at the beginning of Zhou Dynasty;"Nearly the early Han Dynasty" refers to the bet365 sports State where Liu Bang sealed the Lu Hall。At that time,The area actually governed by Murong Xian is roughly the same as that of bet365 sports State in Zhou Dynasty。So,This passage shows very clearly what they have in mind for inheritance。(Jin Runcheng: "The Relationship between National Titles and Regions of the Sixteen Kingdoms","History Teaching" Issue 5, 1988)

Let’s look at the reason why the bet365 sports Kingdom got its name in the Zhou Dynasty,Mr. Han Jianye has a unique vision,It is proposed that this "bet365 sports" is closely related to the swallow worship of "bet365 sports bet365 sports Yu Fei" ("The Book of Songs: Beifeng"),And the tradition of respecting swallows in the bet365 sports region centered on Beijing can be traced back to the pre-Shang culture period。There are two main types of evidence it provides: First, the discoveries and research results of Pre-Shang culture in Beijing and surrounding areas;The second is the close connection between the well-known merchant "Qi" and Yanzi。(Han Jianye: "Ancient bet365 sports Kingdom and Swallows",Contained in "Approaching the Era of the Five Emperors",Cultural Relics Publishing House 2019 Edition)

This golden phoenix bird crown unearthed from the Maoli Tu Tombs,In fact, Mr. Xu Bingkun also paid attention,And clearly indicate that this is a tiara,Golden ornaments for the genus step。(Xu Bingkun: "Bu Yao and bet365 sports","Literature and History" 2014, Issue 4) For Bu Yao,Due to clear documentation,And there are many archaeological objects unearthed,Therefore, a more common view in the academic circles is,This object is closely related to bet365 sports。(Jiang Nan: "Discovery and Research of Jinbuyao Ornaments in Northeast China",Jilin University 2007 Master’s Thesis;Jiang Nan: "Types of Jin Bu Yao Jewelry、Research on Partitioning and Staging》,"Frontier Archaeological Research" No. 14 compiled by the Frontier Archaeological Research Center of Jilin University,Science Press 2013 Edition;Zhao Dan: "A Preliminary Study on bet365 sports's Golden Step Crown Decoration",Master’s thesis of Inner Mongolia University in 2013;Xu Bingkun: "Bu Yao and bet365 sports","Literature and History" 2014, Issue 4)

bet365 sports ends the text,The author is not presumptuous,Propose the possibility that the bird image on the golden phoenix bird crown unearthed from the Maolitu Tomb Group may be called "Swallow"。

As mentioned above,The name Qianyan comes from the bet365 sports Kingdom of the Zhou Dynasty。According to Mr. Ge Yinghui’s research,亚bet365 sportsIt is the national emblem of bet365 sports, in Asiabet365 sportsClan isbet365 sportsA woman’s harem--The inscription on the women’s pot,It is the combined text of Xuan and Bird,The black bird is the swallow,bet365 sports woman is namedWord title,Indicates that the tribal totem she came from is the black bird,Swallow。This also shows the close relationship between the name of the country of bet365 sports and swallows。As Mr. Ge said,As the national emblem of bet365 sports,亚words,The pictographic characteristics of the swallow have always been maintained in the writing method in the bronze inscriptions。(Ge Yinghui: "Tribes and Tribal Unions in bet365 sports State","Beijing Cultural Relics and Archeology" No. 1 compiled by Beijing Institute of Cultural Relics,Beijing Yanshan Publishing House 1983 edition)

  It is logical to inherit the country name of "bet365 sports"

It can be known from documentary records and research results in the field of history,In fact, it was as early as when Murong Xin was in power,Murong Xianbei has already begun the sinicization reform。One of the focuses of reform is economic transformation,That is, agriculture has replaced animal husbandry as their main industrial sector;Another focus is the reform of the political system,Replacing the crude laws and regulations of Xianbei with the legal system of Zhongxia。(Zheng Xiaorong: "A Preliminary Study on the Sinicization of Murong Xianbei","Documentary" Issue 2, 1990) Therefore,Murong Xin was granted the title of King of bet365 sports by the Western Jin Dynasty,It can be regarded as a transformation that is partially completed in the deep culture,That is, close to the Chinese culture in terms of cultural identity,But in the name of the king, he chose "bet365 sports", which has more historical origins in his jurisdiction。

Let’s look at the archaeological research results of Murong Xianbei,Take tombs as an example,No matter the shape bet365 sports tomb、Burial custom or burial objects,Both show that they are strongly influenced by Han culture。In terms of tomb shape,Represented by the appearance of a multi-chambered stone chamber tomb,This type of tomb is obviously influenced by the tombs of Liaodong, Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties;In funeral customs,瘗钱、Use wooden coffin as burial tool、The custom of laying libations in tombs appears in large numbers;As for the funerary objects,A muddy gray pottery pot in Han-style pottery、Copper Lift Cauldron、Bronze buckets and iron farm tools are outstanding examples。(Wang Yu、Su Junqiang、Bai Yimeng: "Archaeological Observations on the Sinicization of Murong Xianbei in Western Liaoning","Liaoning Provincial Museum Journal" compiled by Liaoning Provincial Museum,Liaohai Publishing House 2016 edition)

It can be seen from this,After Murong Xianbei moved to Liaodong area,The study and absorption of Chinese culture is comprehensive and deep。Therefore,They inherited the country name "bet365 sports",And uses the swallow as its totem and symbol,It’s a matter of course。However,The swallow image used by Murong is just like the name of Mao Litu's "Golden Phoenix Bird Crown",On the other hand, it also represents the image of a phoenix bird,This is not only because during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, this image has become a symbol of the spiritual philosophy of the Han nation and a manifestation of aesthetic form,And the origin of the image of the phoenix bird is probably that the black bird is the swallow。(Zheng Lianjun: "Study on the Evolutionary Characteristics and Application of Phoenix Pattern",Master’s thesis of Jiangnan University in 2008)

  Why does Xianbei use "bet365 sports" as its country name

Finally,Let’s talk about the two underlying reasons why Murong Xianbei took “bet365 sports” as his country name。

一,The founder of the bet365 sports Kingdom in the Zhou Dynasty was Zhao Gong,That is, Ji Shi, the younger brother of King Wu of Zhou。After Ji Shi was granted the title,In fact, he did not go to Jidi to take up the post,Instead, his son Ji Ke was appointed as the actual manager of bet365 sports State。He himself stayed in Haojing to serve,Assisted King Wu of Zhou、King Cheng of Zhou and King Kang of Zhou,Created the "Chengkang Rule" in which "forty years of punishment were not used",Laid a solid foundation for the Zhou Dynasty to last for more than 800 years。The "Chengkang Reign" is the earliest recorded peace and prosperity in Chinese history,Therefore, later rulers highly respected him。This way,Zhao Gong and even the State of bet365 sports he founded have become synonymous with "the rule of Chengkang" in the subconscious of future generations。Three generations of the Murong family have used "bet365 sports" as the name of the regime they established,When you have this consideration。In their minds,“bet365 sports” is a highly concentrated expression of his beautiful vision of creating a prosperous age。

二,bet365 sports was originally a nomadic nation,After moving to Liaodong,Gradually changed its lifestyle of "living by water and grass",Towards a settled life focusing on agriculture。But in terms of national psychology,bet365 sports will still have a certain degree of inertia,That is, maintaining the mentality of a nomadic people。The regular migration characteristics of swallows are very similar to the migration activities of nomads between winter and summer pastures,Thus aroused the resonance of bet365 sports,And then showed a great sense of identification and closeness to Yanzi at the national psychological level。

Through the above sorting and analysis research,We may be able to go deeper、A more comprehensive perspective on the reasons why Murong Xianbei named the regime he established with "bet365 sports" and lasted for several generations。
