Is there any evidence of the existence of the Xia Dynasty?
; More than 200 years ago, during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, a number of stone structures buried under mud were discovered in Jiaxiang County, Shandong Province, and a large number of stone carvings were cleaned up immediately. According to the inscription, this is a stone carving complex-samurai hall, which belongs to a local family cemetery of Wu surname in the Eastern Han Dynasty. & ltBR & gt& ltBR & gt The stone carvings of Wushi Temple are undoubtedly the epitome of social life in the Han Dynasty, and also the earliest physical evidence of ancient figures before the Han Dynasty found in China. & ltBR & gt In a large number of plane stone carvings, there are not only ancient figures such as Fuxi Nuwa, Three Emperors and Five Emperors, but also sages and tyrants such as Yu Xia Xia Jie and Confucius Qin Shihuang. & ltBR & gt& ltBR & gt In the stone carvings, Yu, the ancestor of the Xia Dynasty, wears a hat and shoulders wooden thunder, and walks in a hurry, giving people the image of a wise Lord who saved the people from fire and water; Xia Jie, the last emperor in the portrait, had a fat head and a dissolute life, riding a woman. & ltBR & gt& ltBR & gt Now, these two stone statues have almost become the standard portraits of the emperors in the Xia Dynasty, and they are widely circulated. Although the symbolic significance of these portraits far exceeds their archaeological value, they are 1800 years ago, the only tangible information about the Xia Dynasty left by the ancients. & ltBR & gt& ltBR & gt& ltFONT color=#008000>。 [Interview with Li, Head of Archaeology Department of Peking University and Chief Expert of Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties:
