 For the princes to compete for hegemony、The Warring States Period when all heroes came together,We are familiar with Qi、Chu、Yan、Korean、Zhao、Wei、Qin, the seven "countries of ten thousand chariots"。The Zhongshan Kingdom located between Yan and Zhao is only the "Kingdom of Thousands of Times",Although the territory is not large,Dan Zeng and Yan、Korean、Zhao、Wei became king at the same time (called the "King of the Five Kingdoms" in history),At its peak。Zhongshan Kingdom gallops among great powers,Influencing the situation of the Warring States Period,As Guo Songtao, a diplomat of the late Qing Dynasty, said: "The reason for the rise and fall of the Warring States period,Zhongshan Ruoyin is under its jurisdiction。”Zhongshan Kingdom was established at the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain by the Baidi Xianyu tribe during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period,Named because of the mountains in the city。"Shiben" records that "Zhongshan Wu Gong lived in Gu,Huan Gong moved to Lingshou",The Kingdom of Zhongshan was founded by Duke Wu of Zhongshan in 414 BC,Destroyed by Zhao in 296 BC,118 years of coexistence。There are only sporadic records of Zhongshan Kingdom in historical records,The history has always been confusing。Since the 1970s,The Hebei Provincial Cultural Relics and Archeology Team (now the Hebei Provincial Cultural Relics and Archaeological Research Institute) and other units successively excavated the capital city and bet365 free bets of the Zhongshan Kingdom in Pingshan County, Shijiazhuang City。1998,To cooperate with the construction of Shuohuang Railway,A number of Zhongshan bet365 free bets were rescued along the railway line。With the disclosure of excavation results,The mysterious veil of Zhongshan Kingdom gradually fades away,Gives us the opportunity to explore its little-known history。

 First, bet365 free bets is a certain plan for the cemetery layout.bet365 free bets are the epitome of ancient society,Can reflect the social environment at that time to a certain extent、Living situation、Economy and Culture、Funeral customs, etc.。1998,A total of 78 bet365 free bets were discovered outside Lingshou City, the capital of the late Zhongshan Kingdom,Distributed in Fangjiazhuang Village、Beiqiji Village、Zhongqiji Village,All are small and medium-sized bet365 free bets。The area of ​​medium-sized tomb is about 4-12 square meters,The area of ​​the small tomb is about 1.5—3.9 square meters。

Fangjiazhuang Cemetery is located outside the north wall of Lingshou City,There are 9 bet365 free bets from the Warring States Period。Beiqiji Cemetery is located outside the west wall of Lingshou City,There are 4 bet365 free bets in the late Spring and Autumn Period,Three of the bet365 free bets are relatively concentrated,And the two small bet365 free bets are similar in orientation and size,Same era,Should be a group of bet365 free bets juxtaposed between the north and the south。Zhongqiji Cemetery is also located outside the west wall of Lingshou City,There are 65 bet365 free bets from the Warring States Period,According to the concentration of tomb distribution,Divided into four districts from northeast to southwest。The 4 bet365 free bets in one area can be divided into two groups,Pairs facing each other。Most of the 18 bet365 free bets in the second area are medium-sized bet365 free bets,11 of the bet365 free bets are relatively concentrated,Two more things are juxtaposed。A total of 31 bet365 free bets in three areas,Among them, 5 medium-sized bet365 free bets are relatively concentrated,Small bet365 free bets are mostly surrounding its eastern periphery,There are two more bet365 free bets arranged side by side。There are 12 medium-sized bet365 free bets in the four districts,Distributed in four rows from east to west,Some bet365 free bets are arranged in groups of two。

Some of the above bet365 free bets are concentrated、Those with similar shapes are arranged in groups,Indicates that there is a certain planning for the cemetery layout。The bet365 free bets are relatively clustered and distributed in rows from east to west,It may be a family cemetery with the nature of "state tomb"。This ethnic burial system was mostly practiced in Zhou Dynasty cemeteries,Divided into cemetery area and state cemetery area。"Zhou Li·Chun Guan" records that "the tomb man is in charge of the cemetery","Zhang Fanbang Cemetery Area,Picture for it”,Zheng Xuan noted "公,Jun Ye”,"Cemeteries in all nations,The burial place of all peoples”。The cemetery area buries the monarch and other high-ranking nobles。Burial of small and medium-sized nobles and commoners in Bang Cemetery,bet365 free bets generally do not have earth seals,Dense burial,Arranged in groups,Staggered burials of different types of bet365 free bets,But there is no break between each other。The juxtaposition of bet365 free bets in groups may be the result of couples being buried side by side in different caves,Commonly known as the "pair tomb",This phenomenon is common in cemeteries from the Central Plains to the late Warring States period。

 Second, bet365 free bets are relatively consistent.The 78 bet365 free bets are all rectangular pits with vertical pits,No ground buildings and tomb passages,The size of the entrance to the vast majority of bet365 free bets is equal to the size of the bottom。In addition,There are 17 bet365 free bets with large openings and small bottoms,Most of them belong to the bet365 free bets of the middle and late Warring States Period,At the same time, there were many bet365 free bets of Zhao State with large and small bodies。Therefore,Archaeologists speculate,With the destruction of Zhongshan State by Zhao State,The shape of its bet365 free bets was also influenced by Zhao State。The tomb directions are roughly divided into two categories,Mainly in the north-south direction,58 bet365 free bets in total,There are 20 bet365 free bets running east-west。The filling in the tomb is mostly mixed with mountain rocks,After beating,Harder soil。Some tomb walls have foot sockets that are convenient for getting up and down。Burial tools are often used in bet365 free bets,With a coffin、One coffin and one coffin are the main forms,A few have only one coffin or no burial furnishings,Some bet365 free bets are equipped with side boxes to place utensils。Most of the bet365 free bets are seriously disturbed due to robbery,No human bones or human bone displacement、More damaged,Burial ceremony unknown,10 of the identifiable burial rituals were in the form of supine and straight limbs、Seat 1 is for lying on the back and bending the limbs。

A very few bet365 free bets contain accumulated stones,Different shapes and differentiation。In Fangjiazhuang Cemetery,Early Warring States Period tomb M9 coffin top and surrounding stones were piled up to form a stone coffin,The Di people retain the funeral custom of using stone as a coffin;The other two bet365 free bets are just symbolic stone accumulation,Tomb M3 has accumulated stones at the entrance of the tomb,Tomb M4 in the late Warring States Period has accumulated stones 75 cm below the tomb entrance。The decrease in burial stones indicates,Zhongshan Kingdom was influenced by the Central Plains culture,The custom of stone burial is gradually declining。The stones are made from local materials,The larger one is about 30 cm long,The small one is about 10 cm long。

A niche is a niche dug in one of the four walls of the tomb,Generally used to place funerary objects,First seen in the early Neolithic Age。There are 5 bet365 free bets in this batch of bet365 free bets with niches,The niche is located on the longer side of the tomb,The position is not fixed,The size of the niche is often related to the number of utensils,The niche is only large enough to hold upright pottery。The niche has a better anti-theft effect。There is a niche at the south end of the east wall of Tomb M4 in Fangjiazhuang Cemetery,9 pieces of pottery inside,Not hacked,This is most likely due to the fact that the tomb robbers were unaware of the existence of the niche。The Shigui and Shibi found in the Robber's Cave,It may have been stolen because it was placed in the coffin。

There is a custom of setting up a two-story platform in the bet365 free bets of the Zhongshan Kingdom。The two-story platform refers to the four-walled steps in the pit tomb that are higher than the bottom of the tomb,To store funerary objects or bury martyrs,What is known so far can be traced back to the middle Neolithic period。There are 12 bet365 free bets in this batch of bet365 free bets with two-story platforms,The location of the second floor platform、size、Various shapes。10 bet365 free bets are two-story platforms of raw soil,Some wooden tables are placed on the soil table。For example,Tomb M3 in Zhongqiji Cemetery,There is a north-south wooden cover on the raw soil platform。The two bet365 free bets are two-story platforms of cooked earth,After beating,Place pottery on the table。For example,Tomb M14 in Zhongqiji Cemetery,There is a rammed earth platform between the east wall and the coffin,Erect wooden baffles at the north and south ends,23 pieces of pottery placed on the table。

  Third, the bet365 free bets are divided into rich and poor.Most of these bet365 free bets were disturbed,However, there are still many kinds of funerary objects unearthed,includes pottery、Bronze、Ironware、Bone tool、Jade、Stone tools、Glassware, etc.,Mainly pottery。Among them,Buried pottery vessels including tripod、Pingpan Bean、Gaidou、Spherical pot、pot、bowl、Disk、匜、Ear cup、Bird Pillar Plate、cylindrical device、Duck-shaped statue、鬲、Can、Honour,Except for the late Spring and Autumn Period、Cans, etc. are not practical devices,The rest are mostly artifacts specially made for burial。Decorations have hooks、Bronze Bell、Buckle、ring、Beads、Huang、Bi、Bridge decoration、hairpin、Guan etc.。Weapons with arrows、Ge、鐏、Swords, etc.。The tool has a ring blade、Stone adze、Copper Needle、cone、Bone Nail、bone calculations, etc.。Only the bones of chariots and horses are visible。Unearthed stone shell、Bone shells, etc.,Possibly a Hades coin。

Most of the funerary objects are located between the coffins and coffins,A few are placed in the coffin next to the tomb owner,There are also pottery placed in the niche and on the second floor of the mortar。Pottery ritual vessels appear in sets,But the types and quantities of supporting utensils are not consistent。The basic combination of small tomb pottery ritual vessels in the late Spring and Autumn Period is Li、Can。Medium-sized tomb from the middle to late Warring States period,The basic combination of pottery ritual vessels is taken from Tomb M11 in Zhongqiji Cemetery as an example,Contains 3 tripods、4 covered beans、8 flat beans、3 pots、2 ball abdominal pot、1 plate、1匜、1 bowl、1 bird column plate、1 cylinder、1 duck-shaped statue,26 items in total,From the number of funerary objects、Depending on the degree of exquisiteness,They are all the best in this batch of bet365 free bets。Medium-sized tomb in the late Warring States Period,For example, the tripod is placed in the niche M4 of the tomb in Fangjiazhuang Cemetery、Gaidou、2 pieces of each pot,Disk、匜、1 piece of each ear cup。

Some tomb owners contain jade artifacts,This phenomenon is called oral aphrodisiac,The owner of tomb M1 in the Zhongqiji Cemetery in the early period of the Warring States Period contains a jade ring,This is likely to be influenced by the burial concept of worshiping jade in the Central Plains。Shi Gui also made many discoveries,Indicates that there was a burial custom of using stone Gui as burial objects in the bet365 free bets of the Zhongshan Kingdom in the middle and late Warring States Period。M8 of Zhongqiji Cemetery in the late Warring States Period、M37、Pottery unearthed in M57,Most of them are decorated with multi-color paintings such as red, yellow, black and white,Maybe related to the funeral customs of Zhao State。M62 human bones in Zhongqiji Cemetery were covered with fabric,More special。

Differences in funerary objects indicate,At that time, there were obvious class divisions and differentiation between rich and poor in Zhongshan Kingdom。Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period,The number of tripods unearthed from a tomb is one of the main indicators of the status of the tomb owner,The lowest level nobles are generally buried with Sanding。Those who were buried with three tripods in this batch of bet365 free bets,The owner of the tomb may be a nobleman such as a scholar;Those who are buried with two or one tripod,The owner of the tomb may be a minor noble、Civilian。The number of other artifacts buried with them,Possibly the same identity as the tomb owner during his lifetime、Related to economic strength,For example, the owner of the tomb with weapons may have been a samurai;Unearthed stone shell、The Tomb of the Bone Shell,The owner may have been financially stronger during his lifetime。At the same time,Some bet365 free bets have the same number of tripods,Types of matching ritual utensils、The quantity is different,It also reflects that the pottery ritual system at that time was not very strict。

In summary,The bet365 free bets of the Zhongshan Kingdom of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty discovered in 1998 show that the layout of the bet365 free bets was planned to a certain extent,There may be family cemeteries with the nature of "state bet365 free bets" and "pair bet365 free bets" in which husbands and wives are buried together。Funeral customs are relatively consistent,The bet365 free bets are all rectangular pit bet365 free bets,The tomb orientation is mainly north-south。The filling of the tomb was often rammed,One coffin is used for burial、One coffin and one main body,Funeral postures are more common with the body lying on the back and the limbs straight,There are fewer people with accumulated stones in the tomb,Some bet365 free bets are equipped with niches and second-story platforms。Rich types of funerary objects,Mostly placed between coffins,Pottery ritual vessels are mostly plain vessels and appear in sets,Some of the burial objects are practical tools used by the tomb owner during his lifetime。The size of the tomb area、The number and types of funerary objects、The exquisiteness of the utensils,Reflects the class and economic status of the tomb owner during his lifetime。In addition,The bet365 free bets of Zhongshan State in the middle and late Warring States Period were influenced by the burial customs of Zhao State,Reflects the intersection and integration of northern national culture and Central Plains Chinese culture during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty。
