The Sanxingdui bronze culture totem ancestors of the ancient Shu people

This is a composite worship, the composite worship and the limited knowledge of nature-based ancestors. The sacred tree by the fire burning disability, can not recover the whole picture, but after roughly by splicing general picture is still clear. The tree residue 50 cm high, the top of the only tree trunks braided cords. "Human-faced bird" flowers and fruits of the tree-side seat legislation. This bronze is a typical alloy of copper and iron, especially the man-made smelting iron.  The tree God tree if another type of wood. Here, the sun on the tree does not cast the shape of a bird as big sacred tree, but cast the half-human, half-birds "human-faced bird the bird's image on the faces of the people in the fourth floor of the" altar ". Once the identity of the gods in the heavenly world of construction material. Obviously such an air of half-human, half-birds living in the position of the sun "human face bird is native basis of the birds rise in China from the Titan.
 Its air of a square face, hook nose, big eyes, big ears, outreach, and a look at really the burial pits were unearthed bronze animal masks said earlier, the Sanxingdui bronze culture totem ancestors of the ancient Shu people, Totem God basically the same image or demeanor. This is the best example of Titan Totem God. Known as the “First Sword of China”, this bronze has been the earliest ever found smelting iron object. Sanxingdui bronzes in the worship of the earth burial pits were not out of the mountain native flag, but not equal to the mountain in the hearts of the Sanxingdui bronze culture of the ancient Shu people has no place. In fact exist in many important artifacts have the shape of the mountain, like a god to establish in Yamagata seat, and the third layer of the previously mentioned "altar" mountain boundary, where the mountains act as a ladder between heaven and earth. Another example is the "Long cylindrical device", the "column" should be the role of the Kunlun Mountains column Hill is still the ladder.
Another example is the human stature bronze ornaments "earlier in this article have already talked about the plaques expressed is the Minshan on, if the wood. Minshan and if the wood is the place of the sun destination. There is "scallop shaped columns decorated" it expressed in the mountain sun, take the meaning of righteousness light earth. Four fork to another gold, amber pendant should be the mark of the mountain. Above all the admiration of the Sanxingdui bronze culture of the ancient Shu people on the mountain. Wherefrom we can assume that the era of the bronze and siderite dated from the late Shang Dynasty.  The Sanxingdui II burial pits have been unearthed at a side Cheung side Cheung both sides engraved with four Memorial Ceremony for Mountain Figure 16 concelebrate mountain. Memorial Ceremony for Mountain Zhang vertical inserted in the foothills.
The mountain "Shan Hai Jing? In times nine through 16 mountains remember in Minshan. Case "Wu Zang Shan Jing? In nine by" contains: "Minshan first, said a woman a few of the mountain ...... Lo Yan East Note Jiang Hao Yee-hang Jian Shu" that: "(Han) Geography, "says:" Guanghan County Luo Zhang Shan, Luo water out of the south to the new capital valley into the Jian River. "visible Guanghan county Luo Zhang Shan, namely Zhang Shan, northwest of Shifang City, that is Minshan women and a few mountain. Female mountain is precisely to Jiufeng the expectations whenever the storm, in the ancient city of Sanxingdui bronzes can clearly see Jiufeng towering peaks, shows that the ancient Shu people offering women and a few mountain today Jiufeng . To the late Western Zhou Dynasty, we still could find a chinese bronze of this shape.
