Archaeological experts excavated Miyue’s tomb and found batteries and woven bags in the tomb. The experts were so angry that they were speechless.

Ancient people attached great importance to things after death, that is, funerals and mausoleums. The thinking of the ancients was relatively feudal, so in their view, after a person dies, he will enter another place. Therefore, after death, some wealthy people will take a large amount of gold and silver treasures, as well as various utensils with them Burial. Although this resulted in a large amount of wealth being buried underground, it also left us with many cultural relics today.

These cultural relics are of great significance to archaeological experts. They can understand ancient society and even cultural background through cultural relics. However, our country has clear regulations that archaeological experts cannot take the initiative to excavate ancient tombs, so even today, many cultural relics remain underground, and only a small number of cultural relics have been unearthed.

Qin Dong Tomb is a large tomb of Qin nobles. A farmer unintentionally dug out pottery fragments, and archaeological experts discovered Qin Dong Tomb. However, because the tomb at that time was well preserved, experts did not conduct further excavations and just protected the tomb. But in 2010, Qin Dongling was severely damaged.

Because there are relatively few people guarding the ancient tomb, and the ancient tomb is relatively large, there are many robbery holes near the ancient tomb, a total of 21. Later, after an investigation by archaeological experts, it was discovered that all these stolen holes led to the main tomb chamber, causing serious harm to the tomb. Under such circumstances, archaeological experts had to excavate the tomb.

After expert research, it was discovered that this ancient tomb is the tomb of Mi Yue, the Queen Mother of the Qin Dynasty. Mi Yue, who originally had such a noble status, should have many funerary objects in the tomb, but archaeological experts only discovered A small amount of bronze and gold and silver jewelry. The reason why the number is so small is because this ancient tomb was robbed by tomb robbers, and most of the cultural relics were stolen.

But the most annoying thing is that experts found a homemade battery and a large woven bag in the tomb. Contained in this bag are two ropes, a kitchen knife, gloves and a plastic hose for ventilation. These things were left behind by the tomb robbers when they left. The archaeological experts were so angry that they were speechless after reading it. This was clearly a demonstration against them.

Although the Miyue Tomb was later better protected, the damage to the ancient tomb was irreversible, and the lost cultural relics were difficult to find again. Although the police later recovered 21 lost cultural relics, most of these cultural relics were gold products. Although precious, their historical significance is far less than some bronzes in the tomb. This result is also regrettable.
