Chapter 1784 No need to criticize the eight characters
“Celestial phenomena?” Researcher Wu still didn’t understand for a while.
"Yes, celestial phenomena, such as solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, and the positions of the five planets in the sky." Zhou Zhi clicked on the word "Sui Ding" written on the paper sign: "Currently we are correcting Statistics of solar and lunar eclipses in oracle bone inscriptions are used to correct the true time of major historical events. "
"Then do you have any relevant results?"
"If we only look at the oracle bone inscriptions," Zhou Zhi said, "We currently have a piece of bone from the Jinmen Museum. The inscriptions on the film indicate some of its contents. ”
"Through the analysis of the existing interpretations, it was found that the front and back of this oracle bone were engraved with inscriptions. A total of six fortune-tellings were performed on the front, and the inscriptions at six time points were recorded respectively. The content is 'Zhen Xun Wu', which means Zhen Wen Yi Whether something abnormal will happen during the ten days, the result will be no abnormality."
"But there is a record on the back of the bone fragment, which is engraved with 'Xun Ren Shen Xi'. The six characters "lunar eclipse" are interpreted as "there will be a lunar eclipse on the evening of Renshen in this ten-day period". This is the earliest record of a lunar eclipse in the world that we can find so far. It records a lunar eclipse event that occurred in the evening of Renshen. ”
“Combined with the previous six ten-year periods, we can determine the approximate stem and branch periods, and then use this time to correspond to the stems and branches recorded in previous lunar eclipses calculated by modern astronomy. Astronomical legislation, we finally got the exact time of the lunar eclipse recorded on the bone fragment in the Jinmen Museum—October 25, 1189 BC.”
“So it is not only the earliest record of the lunar eclipse. , it is also a very complete historical record, the most conclusive material that can be implemented into the astronomical year, and can be used as an important specimen for the standard of historical time points. We At present, we are using it as a basis to explore and formulate the "Oracle Bone Zhenwen Chronology". "
"If the 'Sui Ding' on the Li Gui is 'the Suixing is directly above the army', or the 'Suixing'. If it means "currently", can we also estimate the exact time of the Makino War in the same way as we estimate the time when a historical specimen was established for a solar and lunar eclipse? "
"Wait for me!" Researcher Wu was so excited that he was shaking a little: "I want to report to my superiors!"
After saying that, regardless of whether such an important national treasure as Li Gui was still in the room, he rushed to the door and shouted: " Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang, come here and keep an eye on me. I have something urgent to call!”

An hour later, Zhou Zhi and others had arrived at another place, in front of a gentle department leader.
"Xiao Zhou, right?" The man's attitude was very kind: "Where did you hear about the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasty Project?"
"Uh... Director Song, this is more I haven't heard of it." Zhou Zhi rubbed his hands and said, "But when we were doing the oracle bone fusion, we came up with a conjecture by studying the eclipse records. I wonder if we can combine cultural and historical data with scientific calculations, make extensive use of the advantages of information technology, and implement the many astronomical records in history to eliminate the false and preserve the true."
This department is now called the "National Science and Technology Commission." It was later the Ministry of Science and Technology, and the person in front of him was Song Jian, then director of the National Science and Technology Commission.
"Hahahahaha... good! Very good!" Director Song was very happy: "I heard that you have calculated the accurate time recorded on the Jinmen Moon Eclipse Divination Bone?" "Song Director, can you access the Internet here?" Zhou Zhi asked.
"Yes." Director Song said: "The National Science and Technology Commission cannot access the Internet, so what is the National Science and Technology Commission?"
So Zhou Zhi took out his laptop and went through the Science and Technology Commission's network He contacted the Shudu campus network, then logged into the Clover intranet server and took out a piece of information.
Turn the computer screen to face Director Song: "Director Song, this is the paper on the time inference of the 'Lunar Eclipse Divination Bone'."
"The first author is you "The second one is An Chunjia?" Director Song first looked at the author of the paper and asked, "Is this a literature and history expert from your school?"
"No, he majored in computer science." Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "There are several types of astronomical chronology in China. One is the most common chronology of the stems and branches. The chronology of the stems and branches belongs to the calendar of the Shang Dynasty. In the history books, it is the Xia calendar. "
"The Xia calendar, together with the Huangdi calendar, the Zhuanxu calendar, the Yin calendar, the Zhou calendar, and the Lu calendar, is said to be the calendar created by the Xia Dynasty, and the original calendar rules. has been lost, I only know some content from some ancient books. "
"The Lunar calendar uses the moon to orbit the earth once, that is, the synodic month is used as the basis for determining the calendar month. The first day of each month is called the synodic month. The fifteenth day of the new moon is the lunar month, and the 'lunar calendar' is the average cycle of the moon phases. In addition to the moon phases, the lunar calendar also reflects the tidal phenomenon. "
"There is also a calendar. Dharma means that in ancient times, the year was recorded by the yearly star moving one star every year, and the sky was divided into twelve parts, namely Xingji, Xuanzhuo, Suzi, Jianglou, Daliang, Shichen, Quailshou, and Quailhuo. , quail tail, longevity star, Fire and wood splitting are called 12 times. This chronological method is called the Suixing chronological method. "Erya Shitian" has a very detailed explanation of the calendar: Tai Sui meets in Jia Yue. , in Yi said Zhan Meng , in Bing it is called Rouzhao, in Ding it is called Qiangyu, in Wu it is called Yong, in Ji it is called Tuwei, in Geng it is Shangzhang, in Xin it is called Chongguang, in Ren it is called Xuanxuan, in Gui it is called Zhaoyang. It is said to photograph Tige, in Mao it is said to be Shanlan, and in Chen it is said to be Zhixu , in Si, it is called Dahuangluo, in Wu, it is called Dunzang, in Wei, it is called Xiexie, in Shen, it is Jitan, in You, it is Zuoxi, in Xu, it is called Yimao, in Hai, it is called Dayuanxian, and in Zi, it is called Kundun. In the ugly day, it is called Chifenruo.”
"This is also a commonly used chronology method in Chinese historical books, such as "Historical Records", "Hanshu", and "Zizhi Tongjian". For the beginning and end of important times, the Suixing chronology method is used."
"For example, the sentence in "Li Sao": Ti Zhen Yu Meng Zou Xi, only Geng Yinwu came down. The meaning of "Ti Zhen" is Tai Sui Zai Yin, which is the Ximu Tian area in the sky. This refers to Yin year. Zheng. Meng: Beginning. Zou: The first month is the Yin month. Gengyin refers to the day when the stems and branches match. "
"So this sentence means Qu Yuan. since My birthday is very proud. Combined with the last sentence, you can see that it is just a coincidence - Yin year, Yin month and Yin day. In the folk customs of the Zhou Dynasty, whether a boy is born in the Yin year, Yin month, or Yin day, it is always the same. It is auspicious, that is, he was born at an auspicious time. This is also related to Qu Yuan's name 'Zhengze' and his courtesy name 'Lingjun'."
"If this date is calculated using the Yin calendar and the Xia calendar, it should be Zhou Xian. The 21st day of the first lunar month in the 26th year of King Xian's reign. If calculated using the Zhou calendar, it would be the 22nd day of the first lunar month in the 26th year of King Xian of Zhou Dynasty. After An Chunjia used the program to correct it, the result of rigorous calculation should be Zhou. In the twenty-sixth year of King Xian, the 22nd day of the first lunar month in 343 BC, the year, month and day belong to Wuyin, Jiayin and Gengyin. The zodiac sign is tiger and the horoscope is wood prosperous, which indicates talent, romance, stubbornness and sensibility. And abstraction is a leadership talent..."
"We don't need to talk about the eight characters here." Director Song waved his hand: "Back to the topic."
