Can you build a city on millions of porcelain pieces? In Jingdezhen, the centre of Chinese porcelain-making for a thousand years, up to 90% of some firings were discarded and smashed: as a result, in some areas there are more shards in the ground than soil. Writer Huan Hsu explains why shard-hunting has become a lucrative pursuit. Have you ever dug up something valuable from the ground?

台大13行遺址 --紀念陳伯楨

2015.6 陳伯楨老師過世。找他的資料時，碰到這則附近的考古現場。

台大13行遺址過年後開挖

Jan 19th 2014, 06:10

〔自由時報記者施致如／台北報導〕台灣大學校內發現史前遺址！位於水源校區的卓越二期建案預定地，原規劃興建大樓與地下停車場，去年有學生散步時撿到陶片，經試掘鑑定後，確認是十三行文化遺址，興建案暫時喊卡，台大預計農曆春節後正式開挖，搶救珍貴文物。
台大人類學系專任助理教授陳伯楨表示，一名人類學系博士生去年在系館旁的草坪散步時，撿到一塊陶片，因該生具有專業背景，立刻察覺陶片的顏色與形狀有特殊之處，經系上鑑定，確認是十三行文化遺址文物，距今有上千年歷史，校方隨即通報文化局，去年十月挖坑試掘。
試掘過程中，大小不一的陶片陸續出土，還有一些深埋土中尚未挖出，此外也發現幾處金字塔型地基，為日治時期建築遺跡，因該地原為國防醫學院校地，一九九○年代才協議換地給台大使用，推測國防醫學院進駐後曾利用該建築作為護理大樓使用，建築現已拆除。
陳伯楨說，人類學系師生農曆春節後將全面開挖，了解遺址保存狀況，搶救埋在土裡的文物，未來建案完工後，原地還將進行遺址還原工作。
台北市文化局二科科長林長杰表示，去年八月底已收到台大來文，說明挖掘計畫，未來正式開挖時，文化局將邀請專家學者參與，視開挖結果提出建議，若遺址土層內保有豐富文物，或分布範圍很廣，將建議校方停止興建工程。

請問這是他們的歷史？還是我們的歷史？

七十年過去了，何時「他們」才會願意加入「我們」？

University of Oxford 新增了 4 張新相片。

The Oxford University Museum of Natural History contains many treasures, but the building is one in its own right.

Built in 1861, the interior decoration is not purely ornamental. The men leaning against the columns on the ground floor are famous scientists, like Aristotle and Darwin. The columns on the top floor are made from various British stones and are topped by bronze leaves and branches from different plants.

LIKE this if you think our Museum of Natural History is a treasure!

the hall of Mirrors, The Palace and Gardens of Versailles

UNESCO World Heritage Site: The Palace and Gardens of Versailles

Großansicht des Bildes mit der Bildunterschrift: View of the western facade of the Chateau de Versailles

More than 3 million visitors come to the Palace of Versailles each year. Many of them just want to see the "Hall of Mirrors".

The Palace of Versailles in France started out as a modest hunting lodge. But Louis the 14th, known as the Sun King, transformed it into the largest and most grandiose palace in the world – harnessing the power of art and architecture to maintain and strengthen his political authority. Today, France’s kings are long gone, but the Palace of Versailles and its vast garden still stand. UNESCO has named Versailles World Heritage Site number 83, given that it represents a masterpiece of human creative genius, that it exhibits an important interchange in human values and because it is associated with artistic works of outstanding universal significance.
