The princess's tomb was discovered in Nanjing 600 years ago. Why would anyone live in it?

The world is big, and there is no wonder. After archaeologists entered the tomb of Zhu Yuanzhang's daughter 600 years ago, they were shocked to find that there were still living people living in the princess's tomb. Then, why did the princess's tomb live more than 600 years ago? Today, we will explore the historical truth together. ?

1998, in Dengfushan, Yuhuatai District, Nanjing, archaeologists discovered a tomb of a Ming Dynasty princess. At that time, archaeologists found that the ancient tomb was stolen. In order to protect the ancient tomb, they immediately carried out a rescue excavation. After the archaeologists entered the tomb, sure enough, the funerary objects in the ancient tomb were looted, leaving only some broken pottery, and the only precious thing was a gold button. It turns out that this is the tomb of Fuqing Princess, the eighth princess of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, with a history of more than 600 years. ?

Fuqing Princess is Zhu Yuanzhang's favorite daughter. She was 48 when she died. At that time, her brother Judy was in power. Obviously, Judy also attaches great importance to this sister, so the specifications of the funeral and mausoleum are very grand. Fuqing Princess's tomb is also the only tomb of Princess Amin discovered in China, which has great research value, so it must be well protected. However, a large number of daily necessities and bedding in the mausoleum filled the staff with question marks.

With in-depth understanding and interviews, I learned that these people were just homeless workers who occupied Fuqing Princess's tomb because of poverty and displacement, which was quite different from what people speculated at that time that future generations would guard the grave keeper. After the ancient tomb was stolen, they found the princess's tomb, which is a good place to shelter from the wind and rain, warm in winter and cool in summer. So, they took bedding and other daily necessities to live in the tomb of Fuqing Princess in the Ming Dynasty. ?

These tramps are really bold, and most people will avoid them. They want to live directly in the ancient tomb and sleep on the princess's coffin. It's really amazing.

After understanding the situation, archaeologists and staff persuaded these migrant workers to take their bedding and daily necessities away from the scene. They have lived in this ancient tomb for more than half a year and may soon face homelessness. It's really sad. After they left, the ancient tomb was immediately protected and has now become a key cultural relics protection unit in Nanjing.
