Actually he was a prize of war or the State of Chu in the form of innate mating mas Shaowang concubine Chu ruler? Everything is completely mysterious.
Age of 2,000 years is still sharp and not rustedAccording to news Hong.net, on one evening in December 1965, the grave number 1 - Chu Mount Jianglingwang - Hubei Province was carried out excavations tension-tension. When archaeological work very carefully open the coffin of the corpse, quite unexpectedly on the left frame remains visible bronze sword still stuck in the scabbard of wood covered with paint.
At the time the officer pull out the sword from its sheath, accompanied by a beam of cold rather meyilaukan eyes, everyone in the place was stunned. One other officer was inadvertently scratched his finger injury and blood flow did not seem to stop. One other officer again tried sharpness with 16 layers of paper, so use less energy, it's all shredded paper pile is cut off.
The sword has a bronze sheen size: 55.7 cm long, 4.6 cm wide and 8.4 cm length of the handle, the handle end of a round-shaped plate on the inner circle there are 11 rows of circles with fine carvings, delicate to the point that there are resembling a hair.
Grid Sword (the protective hand between the handle and blade), slightly protruding out of the front side mounted blue crystal beads framed in stone Turkis, although in the cool darkness of a mysterious glow. In the body there are sword-shaped black diamond textures are incredibly beautiful.
The most exciting part of experts is on hand protectors are 2 lines of engraving characters Niaozhuan style. The number of characters that there are 8 pieces, an expert on the location of the site can only be revealed at that time among the six characters: "Yue Zuo Yong Wang Zhi Jian = homemade sword of the king Yue".
Deputy head of the public museum in Hubei Province, Wan Quanwen said, "The two characters in the middle that shows the name of the person, based on repeated study of the ancient Chinese language expert researchers, new figures revealed that one of the most legendary in the history of China namely: Goujian (the lord of Yue) ".
It is estimated the wedding giftHow Goujian sword of the ruler landed in the tomb of Yue Chu, this mystery can not be revealed until now. Estimated Qianwen Wan: "State of Wu and Yue Chu with've fought a few times. There is a possibility at the time of King Chu presented the sword to one of his high official trust. "
Meanwhile, another point of view assumes that of the bamboo roller (red.: age before the invention of paper using a roll of bamboo as a media / pad) is unearthed from the tomb of the show, there remains the possibility of great nobles during the time ruler named Chu Shao Hua Huaiwang so the possibility of switching to the sword Goujian Chu State through a wedding gift items.
Appropriate record book of ancient history, relations between the two countries since the time of Chu and Yue Yun Chang (Yue ruler) has begun to close, they have allied in a period, the ruler of Chu Chu Zhaowang never marry the daughter of Goujian as his concubine and gave birth Huiwang Chu.
Therefore, sophisticated bronze sword it is possible as one of his daughter's wedding gift items and thus have changed hands to the State of Chu, and then present it to the ruler of Chu Shao Hua. After Shao Hua's death, the sword is part buried in the tomb.
Three important reasons not rusty swordSword of King Yue Goujian through the passage of time has been for 2,000 years, but did not show signs of rust. What causes it not to rust? The experts believe, it was primarily made possible by the situation and condition of the sword is stored.
Qianwen Wan explains, copper content of about 80-83% Goujian swords, tin content of 16-17%, but it also contained a small amount of lead and iron. Copper as the main part of bronze sword it is a kind of non-active metals, the conditions of everyday situations is not easy to rust.
Second, off-site conditions Goujian sword: The tomb buried under the ground a few feet deep, a hole filled with two coffins, tomb wall around the hole using a kind of white mud with fine quality solid, called the world of archeology as a white paste of mud plaster, the bottom use a white paste of mud has been washed and filtered manually, the adhesive is very good.
Plus the top of the burrow tomb filled with a solid ground, the factors that make it almost becomes a tomb of an airtight chamber, so many layers of impermeable partition which basically has the tomb chamber with the atmosphere of the outdoors. Modern science and technology research states: under conditions of total insulated from oxygen, although in the ordinary liquid water or acid water, iron and steel will not rust.
In addition, Chu tomb at Mount Wang no.1 is located on the dry embankment of the River near the city of Jinzhou Zhang modern, underground water level is rather high, the tomb in a long time had also submerged by water, the acidic nature of groundwater is not large, essentially tends to neutral, as evidenced by a large number of equipment / artifacts of wood with a beautiful paint coated storage situation is somewhat better. After the waterlogged soil, the air inside the tomb chamber is also shrunk a lot.
About whether Goujian sword still as sharp as when dug out, Wan Qianwen states: "after that never again do such a test."
