Why is Sumerian civilization so similar to Chinese civilization? Is there any origin?
First of all, Sumerians are also called "blackheads", that is, they have black hair, which is the same as us in China. Our hair is black in China. In ancient times, people in China called it "thousand hands", which means blackhead. Ethnologically, many anthropologists and archaeologists believe that Sumerians are yellow race, and from the unearthed Sumerian statues and other things, they are likely to belong to the yellow race, which may indicate that Sumerians and China people are likely to have some unknown relationship.
Let's look at the similarities between Sumerian civilization and Chinese civilization. According to research, Sumerians with black hair suddenly appeared in West Asia about 7000 years ago. According to historical records, they come from the East and speak a strange language, which has nothing to do with the Semitic tribal language in this area, which is still in the barbaric stage. As for whether we are early China people, it is not easy to verify now.
In terms of writing, as early as 3600 BC, Sumerians invented writing-cuneiform, which is the earliest hieroglyphics of mankind. At first, they used graphics to draw pigs, cows, horses, sheep, crops and other things. Later, when the graphics became simpler and simpler, they fixed the graphic symbols to form characters and carved them in the mud with reeds or triangular wooden poles. The font structure of this script is very similar to that of Oracle Bone Inscriptions, and some scripts are also very similar to that of Oracle Bone Inscriptions, but the carriers are different. Because Sumerian characters are carved on clay tablets, it is not easy to preserve them, so China people choose to carve them on tortoise shells and animal bones. So, is it because the Sumerians discovered that the characters carved on the clay tablets are not easy to preserve, and they were carved on the tortoise shell bones instead? ! If so, it also shows that this race and culture are in the same strain as our China.
In terms of social production, Sumerians have got rid of gathering and hunting, but entered the farming civilization. They planted a lot of crops (admittedly some grains were not brought by China) and invented plows and wheels. This is something that has existed for a long time in the history of Chinese civilization.
Sumerians also dug ditches and created the earliest irrigation system, which is even more in the history of our country. Dayu flood control, Zheng Guoqu, Dujiangyan and Lingqu are all famous.
Sumerians believed in divination very much, and so did China in ancient times. During the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, many national affairs were decided by divination. China even wrote the Book of Changes, which was the earliest divination book. Sumerians believe that man is made of clay by God, while there is a legend in China that Nu Wa made man of clay.
Sumerians also created the earliest astrology astronomy, and China had Shi Gan astrology in the Warring States Period. Sumerians invented the lunar calendar, which has been used by China people since ancient times (also called the lunar calendar, the main body of the lunar calendar).
Sumerians invented bronze smelting technology. They heated copper-tin ore into liquid and made it into bronze, which was used to make tools and weapons. Bronze is almost a symbol of civilization in Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties in China.
In the two river basins, Sumerians once created 12 city-states, and the largest country had 50,000 people. In the Xia Dynasty, the rudiments of cities began to appear in China, such as Erlitou Site, Banpo and Hemudu. The walls built by Sumerians are of earth-rock structure, and so are the walls in Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties in China.
There are also Sumerian buildings, which are very similar to those in ancient China. Since ancient times, China has been dominated by civil engineering, and so have Sumerians. The residential sites excavated by archaeologists show that most of their houses are civil structures with well-shaped foundations, but the building materials of the walls are adobe, which is familiar to the elderly in China. The method is to put the wet mud mixed with wheat straw into a wooden square box, take off the wooden box after half-drying, and a square big clod will be formed, which is relatively strong and can be used to build the house wall. This kind of house with structure and shape has almost run through the whole history of China until now. This kind of house has been built on the land of China since the ancient times of Chinese civilization. Until the 1980s and 1990s, people were still building such houses. Even if we visit some backward rural areas today, we may still see those old adobe houses. However, the houses built by Sumerians 6000 years ago were almost the same as those in China.
There are indications that the earliest civilization of mankind, Sumerian civilization, may have a very extensive relationship with Chinese civilization, which makes us have to think that there is a direct inheritance relationship between Sumerian civilization and Chinese civilization, and ethnically speaking, Sumerians and Chinese people are also likely to have an unknown inheritance relationship.
As for how it was handed down? According to archaeological and historical data, or before 5000 BC, a branch of the yellow race came from the east to the two river basins, forming the Sumerian civilization. After 3000 BC, some Sumerians were forced to leave their two river basins because of the constant wars between Sumerian city-states and the invasion of foreign Semites (white people). Soon after, Chinese civilization developed in the Yellow River and Yangtze River basins in eastern Asia. Have they been here?
In 2300 BC, the Akkad Kingdom established by Sumerians gradually unified the two river basins, and the Sumerians went into decline. By 2 100 BC, it was already the Sumerian world. Some Sumerians integrated into Sumerians, but many left here. Where did the Sumerians leave? At present, there is no conclusive evidence to reveal the whereabouts of Sumerians. They just disappeared in time and space, but after they disappeared, the Xia Dynasty began to rise on the land of China.
Will history be so coincidental? I'm not sure. If it's not a coincidence, it's about six or seven thousand years ago. The ancestors mainly came from the yellow race in China, as far away as West Asia and North Africa. As the first race of the yellow race to reach the stage of civilization, after Sumerians created brilliant civilization in the two river basins, many Sumerians came to East Asia again under the civil war and the invasion of Sumerians, creating brilliant Chinese civilization here.
All kinds of similarities and coincidences always make people suspicious. Is the earliest Sumerian civilization in the world related to Chinese civilization? Were Sumerians a part of ancient China? At present, this is only a conjecture, and whether this conjecture is established remains to be further studied by people with lofty ideals and insight.
