Chapter 1137
After eating a few simple bites, we took the time to open the smaller coffin.
In addition to some scattered blackened human bones in this coffin, we were surprised to find that several small holes had been artificially dug out on the upper side of the inside of the coffin. In the holes were placed some small pottery dogs, pottery pigs, and pottery pigs. The cows are each as long as a finger. They are beautifully made and look cute.
"Fengzi, look, is this a VCD?"
I was speechless. I said it was not a CD, it must be a jade. If you don’t believe me, pick it up and take a look.
Dou Sprouts dug it out and saw that it was really a plain jade.
That's what opening a coffin is like, you never know what strange things you're going to touch until the end.
Brother Yu found two small stone balls. They were solid, without patterns or eyes. They were just two balls wrapped in mud.
When I asked the leader, even the knowledgeable leader didn't know what the ball was for. Bean sprouts even doubted, "Is this a fossilized human eyeball?"
After cleaning until the end, we dug out a bluestone lion cub with a broken leg and an open mouth.
I suddenly had an idea and tried to put the stone ball into the lion's mouth.
Just in time, it suddenly dawned on me that the ball had been in the lion's mouth before, and it was the same thing.
Looking at these cute little lions, pottery-made puppies and pigs, etc., plus the fact that the coffin is one size smaller, we speculate that these are toys and that this is a child's coffin.
There are men and children. The remaining coffin is most likely that of a woman, a family of three.
It turned out that the expectation was correct, the last coffin contained a woman.
This burial object also has the most, not to say dazzling, but also a dazzling array of things, far more than the burial objects in the male coffin.
In the Eastern Han and Western Han dynasties, many women had a higher social status than men. For example, in the tombs of Xin Zhui and Dou Zhou, there were more burial objects than men. The Changxin palace lantern, the best lantern in the world, was unearthed from Dou Zhou’s tomb, but the men did not. .
"Be careful, handle it gently, this thing will break if you don't handle it properly."
Brother Yu carefully picked up a wooden paint box. You can still see the original color paint of the year. This is a cosmetic box. When you open it, there are many compartments inside. You need to take it up and clean it.
This thing is very fragile, so I warned you to be careful.
The female body was not preserved, but the skull was intact. I don’t know if the three members of their family were poisoned to death. Everyone’s bones were very black and looked like they were painted with black paint.
A piece of Han Badao jade cicada was found around the skull. The head of the jade cicada turned black with soil, but the cicada's body was still white and shiny. The fine Hetian white jade used should have been held in the mouth originally, so this kind of The jade cicada made with the Han Badao technique is also called "Hankou Jade" and is of very high grade.
Lacquer box, high-grade jade cicada, cosmetic box, bronze mirror, white jade...
More and more things came out of the small coffin. My eyes lit up. When I saw these things, the fatigue caused by not sleeping all night disappeared.
After cleaning the bottom of the coffin, I accidentally found a small oval bead with a diameter of less than one centimeter. I almost missed it.
After wiping the mud on the surface, a very eye-catching golden color was revealed.
It's shiny and has eyes on the top, it's pure gold...
Holding the beads between his first two fingers, he said excitedly: "This should be a set of gold barrel beads from the New Mang era. There are 16 beads in one string. Find it quickly!"
"Damn it, we didn't come to Luoyang in vain this time, we got it!"
It was difficult to find gold beads as big as the thumbnail of a little finger in the mud of a coffin. After rummaging over and over, I only found twelve, and I couldn't find the rest. I don't know where they were buried.
The leader suggested: "If you can't, put all the mud in a bucket, lift it up, and go to the river to wash it. This set of gold necklaces must be collected no matter what."
I said okay, let's do it.
Bean Sprouts just turned around to get the bucket, suddenly! I heard Xiaoxuan, who had been guarding the pit, shouting anxiously: "Something's happening!"
"What should I do? A cowherd is coming!"
