Section 440
Seeing this, Lu Yu immediately perked up and looked at it attentively.
Initially, Olidia Island was a barren land, until one day, a woman and a group of naked primitive people came here on a raft.
From the picture, these primitive people living in the South Pacific are very likely to escape conflicts and wars between tribes and come here unintentionally to find a new place to live.
For this reason, they also brought the necessities of life.
There are livestock, tools, and seeds of various crops.
After a period of reclamation, the population on the island began to grow, and a regional civilization with a complex social structure was initially formed.
Each tribe has its own female leader.
And there are priests.
For a period of time, life on the island was quite stable.
In the early days of survival, the island was covered with dense tropical forests.
There are all kinds of trees, shrubs and weeds everywhere, most of which are palm trees that have become extinct on the island.
This palm tree is related to the Chilean wine palm, which is 25 meters high and 180 centimeters in diameter.
The tall trunks of palm trees without branches and leaves are very suitable for building large canoes, transporting stone statues and building houses.
Seeing this, Lu Yu suddenly realized.
It turned out that the palm trees that can be seen everywhere on the island are not Australian palm trees.
But Chilean wine palm trees.
Later.
According to the description on the murals, after slash-and-burn farming, the fertile soil brought a good harvest to the Oridians.
Therefore, agriculture on the island began to flourish.
During this period, they planted bananas, taro, cassava and sugarcane.
Raised livestock.
Learned to fish.
Live and reproduce here, live and work in peace and contentment.
In the live broadcast room.
Seeing this scene, the audience launched barrages:
"Anchor, isn't this you?"
"23333333"
"Something!"
"What a familiar plot!"
"666, perfectly reproduced the scene of that year!"
...
At this moment.
Lu Yu had no time to pay attention to the audience's complaints.
The whole person was immersed in the story depicted in the murals.
So, after calming down.
He continued to look down.
But the result surprised him.
I don't know why.
The style of the last few murals suddenly changed.
The expressions on the faces of all the characters looked very terrified.
They seemed to have seen something very terrible.
In addition, the prosperous scene on the island was no longer there.
Countless primitive people took up weapons and fought desperately.
Fighting with a group of long-haired masked men.
In the picture.
The stone statue's expression was originally resolute, but it changed because of this.
The goddess leader, who the Oridians have always regarded as a god, finally seemed to fall in a pool of blood...
It was obvious.
The island was involved in a terrible war at the end of its prosperous development.
In the end, the originally prosperous civilization was dying.
Not long after, it was completely destroyed.
Seeing this, Lu Yu had a question in his heart.
He did not completely agree with the things described in the murals.
The Oridians should have concealed part of the truth.
The tribal war on the island may be the fuse of destruction, but it is by no means all.
In order to build these stone statues, the Oridians spent a lot of manpower and material resources.
How to make these behemoths move freely.
It is definitely not an easy job.
They are likely to use rollers to transport them.
In this way, a large number of round logs and manpower are needed.
Of course, it is also possible to transport them by "skateboard".
But in this case, logs are indispensable.
The stone statue culture on the island reached its peak around 200 BC. In order to satisfy the ruling class, this almost deformed belief hit the island's economy hard, and limited natural resources were wasted.
After the trees were cut down, the famine years followed.
Faith and food have never been coexistent.
As a result, disputes and chaos began to appear on the island, and cannibalism became more common.
If it was just famine and resource scarcity, the situation would be stable, but the enemy came again.
Internal and external troubles added up.
Result.
As you can imagine.
Then, Lu Yu shared his reasoning with the audience from beginning to end.
He explained the cause and effect relationship.
Although there are some irrationalities, it is still logical in general.
"As for where the original Olidians came from, we don't know."
"But I think they are probably the Polynesians who survived the tribal war."
"Or the ancient Maori."
At this time, an audience member asked in the barrage who started the war that year.
Lu Yu shook his head.
Then he said:
"It is an indisputable fact that the war broke out, but who started it is unknown."
"But what is certain is that 80% of them were barbaric primitives who wanted to go to the island to compete with the Olidians for supplies."
"In that era, many tribal wars broke out because of food and filling their stomachs..."
Chapter 358 The continuation of the race! Natural spring!
The uneven distribution of resources and benefits, as well as differences in cultural beliefs, have always been the main causes of war.
This is true for modern wars.
This is also true for primitive wars.
In order to protect their beliefs and homes.
The ancient Euridians, who were already troubled by internal and external troubles.
Eventually went to extinction.
Disappeared in the long river of history.
Only rows of unusually cold, hollow-eyed long-eared stone statues were left.
"The Euridians should also be a kind of long-eared people. Look carefully at the ears of the people in these murals. Almost all of them are different from ordinary people."
"I'm sure this is not intentional by the author of the murals."
"In history, long-eared people also really existed. The ancient tribe on Easter Island is one of them. If we look at it from this level, the two islands may still have some connection."
The history that Lu Yu said.
is not groundless.
In 1700 AD.
Dutchman Roggeveen landed on Easter Island.
After some investigation.
