Xiang Yu's thousands of years of unjustness

Recent archaeological findings show that the Palace of A Palace, China's legendary palace, has never been burned, has never even been built. And for thousands of years, people have been skeptical for Class Vu .

The world's largest palace?

Cung A Phong was built in the 35th year of the Yellow Emperor, ie 212 years after the Nguyen Dynasty in the forest area (the forest reserved for hunting kings) is located on the southern bank of Vi Ha River. Location of Palace A The room, conjectured, is located 30km west of the center of Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province, China, opposite the Yangtze Capital of Tan House across Vi Ha River.

Supply A Room is once the world's largest palace?

A Room supply works extremely large scale, when Tan Thuy Hoang survived, only one electricity building was completed (the palace front). The book "Su Ky" in the section "Qin Shi Huang of the century" is recorded , only this portion of the electricity supply of A Phong has an extremely large area: 'The east to west direction of the front power supply A Long room 500 set (more than 800 meters), the north-south direction is 50 traces (more than 150 meters), above can seat tens of thousands of people, below can be built 5 flagpole flag ".

Calculated according to the units of measurement today, the area of ​​A Palace is about 80,000 square meters, can accommodate tens of thousands of people. In addition, according to other descriptions, the Palace A room has more than 70 different and large furniture buildings, in a day when the weather in the palace, the radios are nowhere else. If according to this description, A Phong Palace is the largest palace in the history of world architecture. However, this magnificent palace was later destroyed.

Xiang Yu's resentment

For a long time, historians all said that the one who burned down the room was the Tay So Vuong Vuong Vu. The evidence for this conclusion is the record in the book "Historical Records " by Sima Qian, the famous Chinese history book. In the 'Centennial Series' section of this book, it is written: '(Xiang Yu) massacred Yangyang, killed Qin Wang Zi Ying, burned the Qin Dynasty palace, the fire burned three months without turning off .'. However, recent archaeological findings prove that Xiang Yu was unjust.

According to Xinhuanet , in 2002, Chinese experts set up archaeological team A Room with the desire to find the remnants of the legendary palace burned by fire. However, the excavation results are out of anticipation. It was impossible to find any trace of being burned at the site for a long time, which was supposed to be of A Palace. In addition, archaeologists also found many pieces of tile in the Han dynasty that appeared at this site, which proved that the A Phong palace existed until the Han Dynasty and the Han dynasty used these pieces to repair Palace?

Since then, Chinese archaeologists have concluded: Cung A Phong has never been burned, and it has been a long time ago for Category Vu.

When this conclusion was published, it caused a lot of controversy. Many people believe that, probably over two thousand years buried, the traces of the fire have almost disappeared. Or maybe archaeologists have unearthed the wrong place (?!).

The archetypal A Phong team does not think so. According to them, another palace is the Truong Lac palace, built in the Han Dynasty, in an era not far from the construction time of A Palace and burned. However, the trail of fires left at the Truong Lac relic is very clear, unlike the site of A Phong.

Regarding excavation positions, this archaeological team said that the location they excavated could not be wrong because it was recorded in many documents. Previously, the most prestigious historical experts in China said that it was the location of the construction of A Phong Palace.

In addition, these archaeologists also said that the only basis for asserting that Vu Vu burned A Phong was the records of the "Historical Records ". However, in this book, Sima Qian only said, Xiang Yu entered Yangyang and 'burned the Qin palace' , not saying Xiang Yu burned A Room. Moreover, according to the records of 'Su Ky' , A Phong Palace is built outside, not inside of Duong Duong.

Archaeologists have also questioned that it is possible to supply A Phong only on the plan, never built. Because, with the scale described in history books, the A Room supply could only be a 'dream' palace but could not be completed with the productive level of labor at that time. In addition, from the Qin Shihuang period to Qin Nhi The and Qin Wang Tu Anh, all activities of the Qin Dynasty took place at the Yangtze Palace or Vong Di Cung. History books have never recorded any activity of the Qin Dynasty that took place in the Palace of A Room.

Although there is still a lot of controversy, but if the guesswork of archaeologists is accurate, perhaps thousands of years, people have really suspected the Vu.
