Features: In this book, the author provides a thorough analysis of the creation and dissemination of the Sanxingdui civilization, refuting the claim that the Sanxingdui bronze civilization originated from local indigenous peoples. Instead, the author presents a new perspective supported by historical evidence: the entire set of artifacts unearthed from Sanxingdui were ceremonial vessels for the Xia Dynasty's royal ancestors, brought to Shu by the Youmin and Shu tribes from Shandong during the late reign of Emperor Jie of the Xia Dynasty, thus laying the foundation for ancient Shu civilization. Additionally, the author revises and verifies the ancient Chinese and prehistoric history passed down to this day, boldly constructing a framework for prehistoric history. These studies provide a macrobackground for understanding the Sanxingdui civilization. The book not only presents the macrohistorical context during the rise of the Sanxingdui civilization but also conducts in-depth microanalysis of each artifact, comprehensively revealing the mysteries of the Sanxingdui civilization and uncovering many historical enigmas passed down to this day.
