What will things be like in a thousand years?
Over the past few thousand years, mankind has recorded events by tying knots in a rope; the Hetu (Yellow River Chart) and the Luoshu (Inscription of the River Luo) have been derived for divination; During Yu Shun’s rule, various colors have been used to paint designs on clothes. Like people’s understanding of the Tao, art has undergone changes intermittently over time and has continued. The ancient relics, fragmented and patchy, have left behind secrets of many thousands of years. Chinese epigraphy and paleography have made an in-depth and continuous examination of the old relics from the ancient tombs in the deep mountains, hoping to restore the events of the time and recreate the original appearance, so that the history of a thousand years can be unveiled.
