Silk Road Xinjiang Section Of Civilization Watch Hard Protection

The Silk Road civilization attracting worldwide attention

"

"It is named by von Richthofen, the German geographer and chairman of the Berlin geographical society, generally referring to the oasis silk road running through Eurasia.

In Xinjiang, the silk road is divided into three parts: the north, the middle and the south.

The yellow sand is long, the oasis is pleasant, the camel bell is long, and is dressed.

The business travelled over the sand dunes, which has been a typical picture of Xinjiang's profound memory.

In the Western Han Dynasty, Zhang Qian twice sent his name to the western regions.

Since then, the silk road connecting East and West has been opened.

However, some archaeological discoveries have proved that Xinjiang's local civilization dates back to the Han Dynasty and can be traced back to the Neolithic age.

At that time, there existed a human settlement in Xinjiang, earlier than the previously known people of the house of fire.

Archaeologists believe that Xinjiang's ancient civilization needs to be rediscovered.

Wang Binghua, a distinguished professor and doctoral tutor at the National College of Renmin University of China, who has worked in Archaeology for more than 40 years in Xinjiang, told reporters that Xinjiang has a very important position in the study of ancient civilizations in Central Asia.

Located in the hinterland of Asia, it is the throat and bridge of the ancient Asian and European continental land pportation links. The eastern and Western cultures once gathered here to show the dazzling splendor. Many ancient peoples used this vast land as a stage to perform many magnificent and exciting historical dramas.

The ancient castle, standing one thousand or two thousand years ago, has been well preserved in the ancient castle because of its special dry condition. It records the ups and downs of history and embodies the joy and sadness of the ancient people of all nationalities.

This is one of the few archaeological shrines in our country. It is the best site for us to study and analyze ancient civilization.

The new archaeological data continue to corroborate this view.

The archaeology of the silk road has a history of over 100 years.

In the late nineteenth Century, the expedition fever in Northwest China began to rise. Foreign archaeologists and explorers such as Aurel Stein and Sven Hedin went deep into Xinjiang to explore and walk on the silk road.

Their discovery has attracted worldwide attention and excitement.

The discoveries of Gucheng, Kroraina, Milan and other large numbers of unearthed cultural relics have deepened academic circles' understanding of Xinjiang's history and even human civilization.

This silk road has also made domestic scholars sad, not only because of the loss of ancient civilizations, but also because of the fact that many of them have been lost from overseas scholars or explorers.

Among them, Stein is a name that can not be ignored.

The Hungarian scholar went to the western region 4 times, and the archaeological map of the western region written by the Hungarian scholar has become a landmark work in Xinjiang archaeology.

Unlike the expeditionary Archaeology of Stein and others, the 1927 north-west scientific expedition of China Sweden became a good phrase in the history of Northwest Expedition.

After 1949,

The archaeology and research of the road have made great progress.

The Archaeological Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of social sciences has an archaeological team in Xinjiang. In Turpan area, Shanshan County, Tu Yu Gou and Qira, Qira, Qira, the archaeological discoveries show and prove the richness and importance of Xinjiang civilization.

Archaeology of the silk road is one of the research hotspots in the archaeological circle. Many scholars have authored monograph, which involves all parts of Xinjiang without exception.

In the joint "inscription", the first batch of China declared 48 heritage sites.

Among them, Xinjiang has 12 places such as Jiaohe Gucheng, Gao Chang Gucheng, Kroraina Gucheng, MAH Maud and Kashi Kali, accounting for 1/4 of the total value of the "inscription" heritage site of the silk road.

Catcher on the Silk Road

On the heritage site of the Xinjiang section of the Silk Road, cultural relics protection workers watch and protect the Western cultural relics cherished by the world in loneliness.

Reporters came to the Turpan area of the Bai Zi Crick grottoes, also known as the "Thousand Buddha cave".

A Uygur primary school female teacher is leading students from all ethnic groups to introduce the history and artistic value of the cave in the grotto extroverted students.

Historically, the believers in Islam have not paid enough attention to or even destroyed the Buddhist sites in China because of their beliefs. Now they can appreciate and preserve these cultural relics with the mindset of cherishing the common heritage heritage.

Stein once described the situation here in "Stein's Archaeology of the western region": "a vast series of collapsed temples are made of stone chisels, with frescoes on the walls, paintings of Buddhist tales and worships in the Uighur era, and very complicated styles.

In terms of richness and fine arts, none of the same ruins in the Turpan basin is comparable, and it can compete with the rich ancient paintings of the thousand Buddha holes in Dunhuang. "

He also recorded the situation in which German Grtinwedel studied mural in 1906 and chose many good murals to be pported back to Berlin.

"Professor Le Ke Ke has also got back some of them, well preserved there."

He also described his "systematic removal of frescoes" as the best way to preserve them.

The murals he had removed were carried to more than 100 cases and were pported to the museum in India.

At present, there are 4 Grottoes in the thousand Buddha cave of Crick, which are open to tourists. Most Uighurs are responsible for their maintenance and management.

Reporters in the grottoes saw the remains left behind by foreign explorers and murals, leaving scars on the bare walls.

These Grottoes still have artistic and archaeological value as remnants of the remnants, such as a cave murals, depicting the scenes of mourning by the princes of nations because of Buddhist nirvana.

A group of researchers and conservationists in Baicheng, Akesu, located in the southern area of southern China.

According to the introduction, the grottoes managed by the research institute are distributed in 9 places, with a distance of more than 500 km.

Apart from the 8 grottoes, the conditions of the other three are not ideal. Some places are not even water and electricity, but there are still staff members sticking to it.

Zhang Guoling, Secretary of the Party committee of the Chi Zi Research Institute, said they are the real catcher.

Hard road to protect

Xinjiang's Silk Road heritage sites are mostly distributed in desolate places where the climate is dry and sparsely populated. Therefore, the protection of cultural relics is very difficult, and special protection methods are needed.

In the list of inscription on Silk Road, Gucheng, Gao Chang, Gucheng, Ashtar tomb, Tai Zan tower, Bai Zi Crick thousand Buddha cave, and Tu Yu Gou grottoes are all located in Turpan. In 2006, the Kantian water conservancy project was also listed in the list of China's world cultural heritage announced by the State Cultural Relics Bureau in 2006.

Alim Gecity, a member of the Party committee and deputy director of the Turpan Cultural Relics Bureau, told reporters that many sites were listed on the heritage list of the joint "inscription" of the silk road. The Turpan Bureau of cultural relics felt the driving force and pressure, opportunities and challenges.

They introduced high-tech equipment to strengthen security, and built a flood control dam construction project in Jiaohe Gucheng.

In addition, some scholars suggested that targeted protection measures should be taken according to the civil and architectural characteristics of the cultural relics in Xinjiang section of the silk road.

At the same time, publicity and education should be carried out extensively to train people's awareness of cultural relics protection.

Wang Binghua pointed out that, as an ancient cultural heritage, the ancient relics in Xinjiang are of great significance.

In the form of "inscription", the cultural relics of Xinjiang and Central Asian countries are juxtaposed in order to give people a deeper and more detailed understanding of the economic, technological, cultural and interpersonal exchanges in ancient Eurasia, and it is very meaningful.

The destruction of cultural relics in Xinjiang is very serious.

Some propaganda or programs highlight the price of cultural relics one by one, which in a sense stimulated the behavior of grave robbery, which should be corrected.

After many centuries of silence, with the acceleration and deepening of regional cooperation, the revival of the silk road has shown a good momentum, providing an opportunity for the protection of Silk Road heritage.

Under the background of the Millennium Silk Road rebirth, the brilliance of the Silk Road heritage will be more eye-catching.
