The farmers in the village has been excavating fossils since 2000 to find the "remnants" of the legend of the dragon was inspired by the discovery of a dragon on display in Guizhou. The farmers do it to supplement their income by selling these fossils to the researchers.
Previously
, to prove the existence of the dragon , Chinese archaeologists conduct
excavations since 1983 at several locations believed once occupied by
the ancient Chinese civilization . The first excavation Niuheliang done around the village , at the foot of Red Mountain ( Red Mountain ) . Precisely , was on the scene Liachoe River valley . Of some findings prove , that in this area once occupied a fairly advanced ancient civilization thousands of years ago .
In the first excavation , the archaeologists discovered two pieces of shaped jade dragon. This carved jade dragon is smooth, transparent green . The first discovery , according to archaeologists is invaluable . From the evidence it looks civilization thousands of years ago are
already familiar with the culture very fine engraving and no less
beautiful with the sculpture today
Excavation
until 2003 that involve dozens of archaeologists from the Research
Institute of Lioning Province , and has completed work on 16 sites . They were poking around the site in the area of 1,576 square meters . Digging six ancient tombs is grave suspected leaders of the future .
From
the results of these excavations , found 479 pieces of evidence that
point about the existence of a monster in the form of fossil jaws and
other body parts that are considered part of the body of a large snake .
Includes three pieces of a dragon statue made of fine jade , which is found from the ancient tombs . It
is said that the findings of the jade dragon statue , similar to the
findings of the excavations in the village of Sanxingtala in 1970 . This village in the territory in Monggolia In Cipeng City .
Professor
So Bingqi , a renowned archaeologist in China and is the Chairman of
China Association of Archaeologists said the latest findings remains to
be investigated further . Especially with the carbon test , to determine the age of ancient animals and reconstruct the entire physical form .
Excavations
carried deeper , to search for parts that may prove other fossils ,
what fossils are an unusual reptile or indeed seekornaga who allegedly
lived a few thousand years younger than the time of ancient animals
Dinosaurs , T - Rex , Brontosaurus and other ancient animals .However, body size , which is smaller than a dinosaur , allegedly finding it indeed is a kind of snake predators . As it is seen from a very sharp fangs that leads to the inside, as well as on other predators found earlier as the T - Rex .
Snake AncestorsResearch
around the valley of the River Liachoe continued archaeologists , to
determine whether this finding is the only extant evidence or else . It
turns out from the archaeologists were not in vain , excavations in the
" Red Mountain Goddess " , it found evidence that support each other . Similar findings at this location , find some other evidence corroborating the existence of the dragon .
Both
archaeologists and Daahun Bingqi , Work Team members search
keberadaannaga evidence was concluded , a snake that has been
mythologized exist. Only
if the shape is perfect , as depicted in the form of sculpture nagayang
like in the monastery or just plain ancient serpent ? All of that is still in question. Archaeologists are still searching for other evidence , and reconstruct it completely .
For a while , they managed to reconstruct fossil findings that ancient serpent is a kind of animal . It is evident , from the frame of the head that leads to a snake skeleton . It is still not perfect , as some other parts that allegedly form cartilage shape is still vague . But all archaeologists believe , that the fossil is a fossil dragon , ancestor of snakes today .
Doubts
regarding the actual shape of the dragon , while they agreed to picture
dragon sculptures created thousands of years ago , allegedly represent
actual serpent shape despite supporting evidence is still detected .
They also agree that the picture is found in the form of jade dragon sculptures (sculptures from crushed gold and bronze, was estimated to be over 8,000 years old) is a picture of the original form of the dragon is now living fossil.
In
the end, the evidence that dragons ever existed , deserves to be
supported by expectations of these animals should be representative of
the form of goodness . Because it is not possible , the worship of the Chinese nation and
other nations because of the good things that have been done by a dragon
or " great snake of the same species " to man in times past .
