In 2001, Wang Wei published his overall ideas and topics of research on the origin of Chinese civilization in the "Guangming Daily": Multi -disciplinary, multi -angle, multi -level, and comprehensive research in the form of national research engineering, in the form of national research projects Essence In the spring of 2002, Wang Wei was ordered to plan a major national engineering project- "Chinese Civilization Source Project" and became the person in charge of the preparatory research. In 2004, the "China Civilization Source Project" was officially launched, and Professor Zhao Hui of Peking University served as the project leader.

Wang Wei introduced that the full name of the "Chinese Civilization Source Project" is: "Comprehensive research on the origin of Chinese civilization and early development".

The world's top ten major archeological discoveries, and the 'Chinese civilization exploration source project' itself has also been selected into the world's major archeological research results. "

Does Chinese civilization continue for 5000 years?

The truth has come out of the stone

Wang Wei said: "Chinese civilization is one of the few native civilizations in the world, and it is also the only civilization that has not been interrupted and continues to this day. The process, background, motivation, mechanism and characteristics of her origin, formation and development, This is the responsibility of Chinese scholars and the contribution of Chinese academic circles to the study of world civilization. "

Wang Wei introduced that the exploration source project is the largest comprehensive research project in the world and participated in the most disciplines. "Based on archeology, we jointly assault on multiple disciplines, and the formation process of the origin of civilization, formation and the historical pattern centered on the Central Plains region of the Chinese land, and the environmental background, the foundation of the living industry, the development momentum of development, the development momentum that leads to this process Explore comprehensive research with mechanisms and qualities. "

In the implementation of the "Chinese Civilization Source Project", historians have also raised many problems, such as when did Chinese civilizations form? Does it really have a history of 5,000 years? What kind of development did she go through? Why go through such a process? What is the sign of civilization? Is there any sign of all seas? When is the historical pattern of Chinese civilization centered on the middle reaches of the Yellow River? Why can this pattern be formed?

Wang Wei said: "The hope of solving the problem is to open up new sources of historical materials, and to answer the origin of Chinese civilization and the heavy responsibility of early development issues, it is necessary to be completed with archeology as the core. A series of new archeological discoveries have entered the research of Chinese civilization into a new stage. "

Through more than 400 scholars' efforts for many years, the "China Civilization Source Project" was selected into the first World Archaeological Forum (published by Shanghai) in 2013. Wang Wei said: "In recent years, through the archeological discovery of a series of metropolitan sites and centralized sites in various places, archeologists have revealed the process and phase of the origin of Chinese civilization, formation and early development, and empirical of more than 5,000 years of civilization in China."

Talking here, Wang Wei mentioned that on July 6, 2019, Liangzhu Ancient City and Affiliated Water Conservancy facilities successfully entered the World Cultural Heritage List. The Liangzhu Ancient City site from 4300 to 5,300 years ago provided an important physical basis for empirical civilization for more than 5,000 years. The World Heritage Committee commented that the site represents the achievements of China's great prehistoric rice civilization more than 5,000 years ago, and is an outstanding representative of urban civilization. Wang Wei said: "The 5,000 -year -old civilization of China has been recognized internationally!"

Interpret ancient Shu civilization

Can be called the dazzling star of Chinese stars in the air

In recent years, Sichuan archeology has repeatedly found major new discoveries. In addition to the ancient Shu civilization represented by the Sanxingdui site and the Jinsha site, archeologists have also discovered the large -scale Paleolithic Wilderness site in Daocheng County, Sichuan. Yuanxian also discovered the "Bronze Kingdom" of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Wang Wei revealed in the celebrity lecture hall that the ancient Shu civilization and Chinese civilization were inextricably linked.

Wang Wei introduced to you the archeological discovery of the Chengdu Plain about Dangshinshi Times in the late Shinshi Times. He said: "So far, in the Chengdu Plain, it has discovered 8 ancient cities from 4500 to 4000 years. Around the ancient city, it was enough to prove that the Chengdu Plain has entered the beginning of the origin of civilization since then. "

In Wang Wei's view, the main source of Baodun culture may be related to the Neolithic culture represented by Yingpan Mountain in western Sichuan Plateau. "The ancient crowd of Chengdu Plain is likely to gradually migrate from the Plateau of the West Sichuan. About the early period of 4500 years ago, the rice planting technology in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River was introduced into the Chengdu Plain. The crowd gradually moved to the heart of the plain. In the middle and late period of Baodun culture, a large number of dense settlements appeared in the belly area of ​​the Chengdu Plain. "

And Sanxingdui culture is the great civilization that develops on the basis of Baodun culture. Wang Wei admits that the Sanxingdui culture has accepted the influence of the Central Plains Erlitou culture in the early stage, and the middle and late stages are affected by the business culture. Photos of cultural relics unearthed from the site, such as jade, jade, porous jade swords, jade, jade, jade, etc. are all Central Plains rituals. In terms of bronze casting technology, Zun and 罍 are also derived from business culture. Regarding the Central Plains Civilization Gene in Sanxingdui culture, Wang Wei specifically pointed out that many cultural relics that have been used in Sanxingdui have been unearthed. Their shapes are extremely similar to the dragon cultural relics in Central Plains and other places and are in harmony. Wang Wei said: "The Central Plains region was about the culture of the same period in the same period of the culture of the same period of the culture of the dynasty in the late summer dynasty. . The diversified integration pattern centered on the Central Plains region has begun to form. "Wang Wei said that the ancient Shu civilization represented by Sanxingdui and the" sacrifice pit "was closely linked with the Central Plains Xia Shang Dynasty. Metallurgical and bronze rituals and jade ceremony systems. At the same time, Samsung Dou also maintained its own characteristics in terms of faith.

It is worth mentioning that Wang Wei also gave his own interpretation of the "out -of -domain color" of Sanxingdui cultural relics. He said: "Although it cannot completely rule out the influence of overseas civilization factors and the culture of Sanxingdui, for example, gold masks and gold sticks of gold sticks Traditional and attach great importance to gold, but at present, no exact evidence of Samsung Dou's direct influence by off -domain civilization. "

In the end, Wang Wei emphasized that the ancient Shu civilization, which is composed of Sanxingdui culture and the coincidence of the Jinsha Twelve Bridge Culture, is an important part of the Chinese civilization in a variety of Chinese civilization. It is a very bright star in the starry sky of Chinese civilization Essence
