Chapter 2066 Deluxe Edition Tomb
This was a stone chamber that suddenly became clear. When Wang Zan and the others walked for nearly twenty minutes, they passed through the long dark passage, and their eyes suddenly became bright.
This brightness is not brought by a strong light flashlight, but from the interior itself.
This spacious stone chamber presents an arched architectural style. There is a square space above the semicircle below. Several jade stones emitting light are inlaid in the stones on the roof. After they penetrate to the bottom, the light immediately illuminates the entire stone chamber. Although it cannot reach the level of bright lights, at least it can be seen clearly without the help of a flashlight.
Everything he saw immediately made the scientific expedition team stunned. Even Wang Zan seemed to be electrocuted, and it would last for a long time if he was frozen.
The area of the stone chamber is equivalent to two basketball courts together, very vast, but such a large indoor building does not have any support or load-bearing wall structure. It is hard to imagine how it was built. This can be called a magical craft. After all, the construction techniques thousands of years ago were not comparable to the current technology.
It is easy to understand just the theory, that is, the stones above are all in a arc, and then extend to the middle, and finally form a roof. This is somewhat similar to the arch bridges that have appeared in many places in China. They also have no support points, but are built with the help of force interaction.
But building an arch bridge and this stone chamber are obviously two different concepts. It is hard for you to imagine the project here. It was constructed by purely human power thousands of years ago.
The middle part of the stone chamber is a circular huge stone with a coffin made of stones placed above it, but it is far away, and the coffin is placed a little upward, and a stone slab is buckled on it, so there is no situation inside for the time being.
In addition to being large, the sarcophagus seems to be quite tall. The surrounding stones are inlaid with a lot of gold and gems, which look shining. A stone statue is carved on one end of the coffin. Because it is too far away, it is impossible to tell what it is carved. The tail of the coffin is carved with star signs and celestial phenomena such as sun, moon, stars, etc., which looks very solemn.
The round stones that were placed in the coffin were hollowed out, forming a circle of waterways. The water flowing from somewhere was already level with the ground, and the tightly tactile was next to the stone bricks, even if there was a little more, it could overflow.
Further out, rows of shelves placed close to the wall, which seemed to be things like burial objects. Then, in some areas of the stone chamber, there were also many strange and playful things. On the right hand of the scientific expedition team, there were three sculptures that were almost like normal horses. The outside was shaky, and they were clearly gold-plated. One meter away from the wall on the left hand, there were various utensils. In addition to agricultural use, there were many of them, and there were also weapons, neatly arranged one by one.
As for the burial objects placed on the shelves around the walls, they are somewhat similar to works of art in ancient palaces, such as crystal coral trees more than one meter high, ornaments of various animal shapes made of a whole piece of jade, etc.
If these things are placed outside, they will definitely be priceless. Putting aside the historical issues, the texture of these burial objects is very good. After thousands of years, they still remain almost the same, while other places seem relatively empty.
From a normal perspective, this should be a regular tomb. Judging from the structure and specifications, the level of the people in the coffin should be very high. If it were placed more than 5,000 years ago, it would be considered as the King and Monarch.
After the initial shock, the people in the scientific expedition team were excited, but they were all very experienced. Even if they were very happy, they did not walk around, because many of the ancient tombs were arranged by organs. Although it had been so long, no one knew whether it would work. If they were not careful, their lives might be lost here, so they just stayed at the exit of the passage and discussed.
Wenger and Barselli also mean that they also think that the huge sarcophagus is probably the body of King Sumer. After all, the specifications of this tomb are very high at first glance, and the things are of great value. They may not be the Sumerian monarch. No matter how bad it is, they are likely to be an important minister or prince.
After they communicated and studied for a few sentences, Wenger felt that he should start to work. In addition to him, Barcelili and Ye Huichen going to the sarcophagus, others went to observe the surrounding burial objects. The things in this tomb can be discussed for a long time. Even if they don’t go in, these things will be disclosed to the outside world, which is enough to shock the world’s archaeological and historical research fields.
However, before they were about to move, Wang Zan expressed his doubts clearly, that is, he did not believe that the person in the sarcophagus was the king of Sumer, and his experience and experience did not allow him to have such ideas. This is unscientific.
"The tomb here looks very large and gorgeous, the burial objects are exquisite, and the coffin specifications are high enough, but one thing doesn't make sense..." Wang Zan frowned and shook his head and said, "The route and direction we come to this tomb."
Wenger paused, and the initial surprise and excitement gradually disappeared. Although he was not as good as Wang Zan in terms of supernaturalism, he was definitely an old expert for decades, and there were many obvious details he could not have imagined.
Wenger suddenly said, "What you said is that it took us about an hour from entering the pyramid to now. We should have gone for forty minutes after we took a break and delay in the middle. Although the time is quite short, there are many roads that are circling. If we only calculate the straight line distance, it is actually very short for us to enter the pyramid."
Ye Huichen nodded and said, "It's still at the edge. According to the practice of burial of kings and monarchs, they are both located in the middle of the tomb. This is an unchangeable rule, so this tomb is somewhat sideways, not King Sumer, so who can it be, the minister's?"
Wang Zan waved his hand and said, "That's even more impossible. Throughout history, there has been no monarch and ministers buried in the same tomb together. It is almost rare. Except for the Wuhou Temple... So I think this tomb is not a regular tomb."
There is a difference between the king and the minister, and the etiquette cannot be broken. If there is a possibility of burying one's life, then there is no reason to bury the same person.
