A brand new museum featuring artefacts from an archaeological site in China’s southwestern province of Sichuan has opened offering visitors their first look at recently unearthed objects from an ancient civilisation. Soon, over 100 of the Sanxingdui pieces will be moved to Hong Kong where they will go on display at the city’s Palace Museum. The September 2023 exhibit will feature many artefacts on their first showing outside Sichuan. The Post had a chance to look at the dig sites and museum to learn more about the Sanxingdui culture, which dates back at least 3,000 years and which is known for its distinctive masks and sculptures.

Sanxingdui! I wish this exhibition would tour around the world! China is such a fascinating country! And still so much to discover buried there!
Love any archeological finds, they provide us with so much joy and fascination!
Love it!! Hope they'll show more when they discover new artifacts.
I wish more people appreciated museums, they are very important in preserving our history
I'm so fascinated by the SanXingDui culture and what it may be able to tell us.
-Why was it not mentioned in any old texts? Perhaps they had no writing system and it was so far removed from the North China Plain (中原) that there was no contact.
-What were their beliefs?
-Why are there no depictions of the sun? (which is normal in early agrarian societies. They worship the sun which brings them their food)
-Are the human figures religious leaders?
-Are the animal figures signs of animism?
-So many large bronze artifacts are usually a sign of a large, organized society. A small village would not have the manpower or time to make this.
So interesting!
There's a Sun depiction figure, which is made of thin gold sheet, and inside the Sun there are four fairy birds.
@@mingouczjcz3800 Thanks for that extra info. Very interesting. We can imagine (without knowing for sure) that they believed birds inside the sun pushed it across the sky. In some countries in Europe the sun was depicted as being pulled by oxen across the sky.
If not mistaken, the people during the Shang dynasty are at constant war. And we know that in ancient times, many historical records were destroyed by enemies. They still use bone oracles so their records must have eroded. Bone oracles like the turtle/tortoise shell oracle are extremely rare, not sure how many were discovered so far.
These sculptures reveal that they are already mature works of art, preceded by earlier attempts.
They are such that in our time we could call them a kind of modern art trend: the lines are completely sure and the head sculptures are completely the same. It should also be seen that this style was practiced on other objects as well - it is very thought-provoking!
North of Chengdu. I better take a note and go to visit next year
Fascinating, I never heard of this ancient civilization before! It seems it was a strong civilization.
Thanks, beneficial info better than wars and constant rivalry news.
This is Yajuj Majuj

British museum is a famous and huge centre of history but this new museum in China is 10 times deeper in history
Incredible what the ancient had achieved and thank you for sharing this to the world.

Well come 🎉 the museum of masks and sculptures and know of mythical creature
I love learning about mythical creatures😍😍
you are a mythical creature
The many masks and mythical creatures at this site once had elephant tusks protruding from the large opening on their heads. They were removed prior to being thrown in the pits. It would be helpful if the archaeologists would insert the tusks where they belong before putting the objects on display.
if they were labelled as an "evil" cult, that would explain why they are not mentioned in chinese historical records.
Im love being Chinese!! All nations in the world are loving China at new record high!!! 🤗

There is language discovered in Sanxingdui artefacts.
Too bad this civilization doesnt seem to have words or language or if they have it remained undiscovered or was lost by now. If words were discovered a lot of mysteries of the past would be revealed.
Glad the British didn't took them
Hybrid dragon probably a deer with horn.
Alien Masks!!
Can you see this exhibit in Hong Kong?
that's what the whole video is about. it's coming to HK.😅
This September, will be a family trip for me.
Yes you can! You should also visit the Forbidden Palace exhibit. 3 million artifacts, only selected few get exhibited in Beijing, Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Im here cuz zhongli
Sanxingdui doesn't look like any chinese civilization or any asian civilization we ever seen. It has more aztec features. But since the theory that ancient asians have crossed the bering strait to the american continent, it might be true they are the ancestors of the aztecs or native indians.
Still it is Chinese.
@@unnamedness I am not saying it isnt chinese, but we never seen a chinese civilization like that before, so its very interesting.
The interesting is that Chinese civilization is more than 5000 of history. And most of what we see is just Song Ming Qing. The last dynasties.
But Shang, Qin , Zhou alot of the earlier dynasties are very interesting. Also the dragon is different.
?
It's Chinese, China is one of the oldest civilization in human history

They have to admit that Sanxingdui was not related to China
Thank goodness this was discovered after the cultural revolution, or another part of our history this would be destroyed by lunatics.

Why the voiceover? If you're going to voiceover your videos, at least find someone who can speak the language...
How many languages do you speak fluently?
@@bobbymoss6160 The FDV has no official language but the majority of our members can speak English. We however have members from numerous countries in the world such as China, India, Saint Lucia, England and so on.
@@Fans.of.Darth.Vaders.EmpireI would be more impressed if you could speak Bothan, Twilek or Jawan...

The aren’t mythical.
They were one of the visitors. People who created life on earth.
Asimov’s book foundation wasn’t science fiction. It was historical fact. Like a documentary.
Maybe later Something happened on their home planet and they never came back.

Yes.

I read that they will reverse engineer the figures then mass produce them and sell them in souvenir shops.
You can get a copy of Mona Lisa for a little as a few dollars. What’s your point?
Can we worship and make sacrifices to the GRAND MYTHICAL CREATURE?

Straight from alien
Thankfully the relics were not discovered during the cultural revolution. Otherwise, they would have been *destroyed*
