"This thing doesn't quite look ancient, and the scenes carved on it are too gruesome."
Chen Yiyang picked up this Shell Storage Vessel and took a few glances.
No wonder this thing ended up in an antique stall.
Usually, typical bronzeware or Shell Storage Vessels have animal patterns carved on them.
Occasionally, some Shell Storage Vessels also feature human figures, but most of these depict Ancient Dian Kingdom nobles hunting or traveling in full attire.
However, on this Shell Storage Vessel, a scene of live human sacrifice is carved.
Indeed, the carvings clearly depict how the Ancient Dian Kingdom conducted live human sacrifices.
On this Shell Storage Vessel, a sacrificial site is carved, with an altar in the center. A naked person has their hands tied behind their back, forced to kneel at the sacrificial site, awaiting execution.
The whole scene looks horrifyingly cruel.
"I also think this doesn't quite seem like an ancient artifact."
