A thousand-year-old well in Hunan dug up 36,000 books. Why do experts say that you can't trust the records of ancient books?

It is because the things recorded in this ancient book have subverted the understanding of this history by the archaeological community or the whole historical community. These 36,000 ancient books are all Qin bamboo slips, which record the history of the Qin Dynasty. Experts found these ancient books in a small town in Hunan called Liye, so this town was also called the hometown of Qin bamboo slips in the Qin Dynasty.

The experience of discovering these ancient books is also quite interesting. At that time, a group of experts came to Liye for archaeology, where they found the site of human activities 6000 years ago. Then they found an ancient well. The history of this ancient well is not long, but it has been thousands of years. In this ancient well, experts unearthed a large number of ancient books, including 36,000 volumes, and found a large number of weapons nearby.

After identification, it was found that these things belonged to the Qin Dynasty and the ancient books were Qin bamboo slips. But experts were surprised when they read something on Qin bamboo slips. Because the history recorded in Qin bamboo slips seems to be different from that known by people, judging from the unearthed Qin bamboo slips and weapons, this place was once one of the battlefields of Qin Chu War. Chu Huaiwang was a treacherous court official and a fatuous emperor, so the fighting capacity of Chu after Shang Yang's political reform was not as good as that of Qin. Even so, the battle of Qin Chu lasted for a whole year.

These Qin bamboo slips have solved many historical problems and made great contributions to the study of Qin history in China. It records how the ethnic minorities living here survive, develop and carry out cultural exchanges. There are a series of important historical facts such as how people here established stable social and economic development after Qin Chu War. Because of the things recorded in these Qin bamboo slips, experts found the differences in the Qin Dynasty, so experts found it quite incredible, which also reflected that reading historical books should be dialectical.
