Shaanxi Institute of archaeology has just released an archaeological achievement. After a year of excavation, archaeologists found a well preserved rammed earth building representing the Royal etiquette at the West ruque site of Fengling Mausoleum of Shunzong of Tang Dynasty. The plane of rammed earth platform is trapezoidal, the surface is wrapped with strips of bricks, and there are bricks around the platform. Surprisingly, archaeologists found that this building is a typical "three out que structure". There are very few buildings preserved in the Tang Dynasty, especially the "three out of Que" buildings representing Royal etiquette. This discovery can be said to provide very precious physical data for the history of Chinese architecture.
What is the famous "sanchu que building" in the Tang Dynasty? For a long time, we can only understand its image from the national treasure cultural relic "Que Lou Tu" collected by Shaanxi History Museum. Recently, Shaanxi archaeologists found a well preserved "three out of the que tower" representing the Royal etiquette in the Tang Fengling cemetery. Although it is only symbolic and not practical, it provides important new information for us to understand the development and evolution of the imperial mausoleum system in the Tang Dynasty.
Tang Shunzong Li chant is the eldest son of Tang Dezong Li Shi, the tenth emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and also the most characteristic emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He has been a prince for 25 years, but he has only been an emperor for more than 100 days. In the whole imperial system of the Tang Dynasty, he has been in power for the shortest time, and he has not even spent a new year as an emperor. As a mysterious emperor, Li chant has many legends and stories about his health and governance, which still needs to be explored by historical and archaeological scholars.
