For a long time, various historical classics and people say that the history of the Chinese nation is 5,000 years. With the development of modern archaeology and the emergence of new technologies, this historical conclusion is no longer correct, and the history of the Chinese nation has been deduced forward for nearly 4,000 years.
The 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization originated from Han Sima Qian's "Records of the Grand Historian", which recorded the earliest Chinese civilization started from Huangdi , and was called the originator of the Chinese nation. Sima Qian is a rigorous and serious historian. Although he traveled and investigated the eastern, western and northern borders of China, looked up various historical documents and written records, and visited historical events passed down by word of mouth by word of mouth by elderly people in various places, all the records passed down can only be traced back to the era of Huangdi 3,000 years ago. With a serious and responsible academic attitude, "Records of the Grand Historian" began in the era of Huangdi, and the Fuxi and Shennong Shennong Yandi were not included in the "Records of the Grand Historian".
The biggest thing to destroy the self-confidence of a nation is to eliminate the history of this nation and make this nation a water without a source and a tree without roots. I don’t know where to come from and where to go. In modern times, with the military invasion, cultural infiltration and the poisoning of historical views of Western imperialism, our Chinese nation has gradually forgotten the history and civilization of our ancestors, blindly followed Western history and civilization, and divided history into each other to correspond to the Western historical stage. The Paleolithic Age, the Neolithic Age, the feudal society, etc. are all Western historical concepts, so we have no time to take into account the true historical source of the Chinese nation's civilization.
In addition, in modern times, a group of so-called historical masters of " doubts about ancient schools " appeared. They did not go to investigate and trace the origin. When watching the play, they flashed their heads and slapped their heads. They took it for granted that "history is like an opera, and the more they passed, the more strange it became. Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are all stories told by people." So they began to write books, doubt the history of the Chinese nation, deny the historical existence of Fuxi, Fuxi era, and Fuxi culture, and believed that it was a myth and legend, forming the "Ancient School".
The "Qin'an Dadiwan - Neolithic Site Excavation Report" was published in 2006. In 2010, the archaeological excavation results of the Dadiwan site in Gansu Province, including "Archaeological Records and Origin of Drought Agriculture at the Dadiwan site in Gansu Province over 60,000 years ago" (" Science Bulletin ", Volume 55, Issue 10), etc., prove that the first phase of Dadiwan culture was about 1,000 years earlier than the Yangshao culture. In the vast areas around Dadiwan, 6,000 years ago and more than 8,000 years ago, there have been settlement agriculture in the vast areas around Dadiwan, planting millet and millet, raising dogs, pigs and poultry, using stone pottery, plain pottery, and painted pottery for sacrifices, living in mud to build houses, and there are settlements. Gansu archaeologists also conducted research and confirmed: "The painted pottery that appeared in the first phase of Dadiwan culture and the painted pottery in the West Asian Lianghe River Basin are the earliest in the world. The two types of painted pottery cultures created at the same time do not have the problem of who influence whom."
There are two different connected eras that can be established by Chinese prehistoric archaeology. The first is the Fuxi era 8,000-6,000 years ago. The first is the Yan Emperor and Huang Emperor era 6,000-5,000 years ago. The transition from the era of Zhuanxu , Emperor Ku , Yao, Shun and Yu to the historical records of Xia, Shang and Zhou. Now some people confuse prehistoric archaeology with the definition of historical archaeology, and talk about the dynasty of Chinese civilization, and insist on deciding Chinese civilization to 3,700 years within 4,000 years. Ignore the fact that the Fuxi culture was born in the ancient Chengqi region of the Weihe River, which was centered on Dadiwan more than 8,000 years ago.
Forgot history is betrayal! As descendants of China, we must use a scientific and historical perspective to respect our own civilization, rebuild our self-confidence, promote our Chinese studies, and practice "cultural confidence."
