1. What information is there about the history of silkworm rearing and silk reeling in my country?my country is the first country in the world to raise silkworms, reel silk and weave silk. The ancient Greeks and Romans called my country "Seres", which means "Silk Country". The Roman slave owners regarded the silk shipped from my country as the most precious treasure, but until the fifth century, they did not know that silk was spit out from the mouths of silkworms. 3000 BC - Legend has it that in 3000 BC, Leizu, the wife of Emperor Huang, invented the method of "raising silkworms and processing silk" and used silk as a raw material for textiles. This shows that the application of silk in my country has a very long history. It is recognized worldwide that my country was the first to invent raising silkworms and processing silk. Europe calls my country the "Silk Country". 2. What is the development history of Chinese mulberry silk technology?China is the birthplace of the world's sericulture industry. The use of silk, the domestication of wild silkworms, and the cultivation of mulberry trees and silkworms all originated and spread in China. According to legend, Fuxi invented musical instruments, using mulberry leaves to make the harp and silk as strings. In ancient times more than 5,000 years ago, when Huangdi defeated Chiyou, someone offered silk to him. Huangdi ordered them to be woven into silk and made into clothes and hats, which were both comfortable and luxurious to wear. Later, Huangdi Xuanyuan's empress Xiling, Leizu, moved wild silkworms indoors to raise them, and people followed suit, and sericulture gradually became popular. From then on, Leizu was revered as the ancestor of sericulture. 3. What is silkworm breeding and silk reeling?Sericulture and silk reeling Reeling is the process of extracting silk from silk cocoons. The process of extracting silk from silk cocoons is generally called silk reeling. The original method of reeling silk is to soak the cocoons in hot water, draw silk by hand, and wind it on a silk basket. Basins and baskets are the original reeling utensils. The Han working people invented the technology of sericulture, silk reeling, silk weaving and embroidery. The invention in this area should be attributed to the women of the Han nationality. Legend has it that Leizu, the wife of Huangdi and the daughter of Xiling clan, taught people to raise silkworms and process silk cocoons to make clothes. 4. What is the historical significance of Leimu’s silk reeling?The silkworm breeding and silk reeling technology represented by Leizu also originated from the ancestors' need for food and clothing. In the primitive daily gathering activities, the labor group dominated by women accidentally discovered the secret of wild silkworms. Facing the fat white larvae crawling on the branches and spinning silk cocoons, they were amazed at first, and then through day-to-day observation and long-term trial and error experience, they gradually domesticated wild silkworms into domestic silkworms, opening a new journey of artificial mulberry planting and silkworm breeding. This seemingly instantaneous change in civilization is actually a summary of the long production and labor experience of prehistoric women. The warm and humid climate plus the supply of breeding skills have gradually solidified and cohesively formed sericulture into a cultural model that exists in many places. This is the product of the ancestors' connection and integration of cultural characteristics produced in similar environments on the basis of primitive accumulation, and is the result of gradual evolution and development in intergenerational inheritance. 5. When did the technology of sericulture and silk reeling begin?Sericulture and silk reeling were invented by Leizu (the wife of Emperor Huangdi). my country is the first country in the world to invent silk (sericulture, reeling and weaving silk). More than 5,000 years ago, the hardworking and intelligent Leizu invented silk (sericulture, reeling and weaving silk technology). She, together with Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang, opened up the vast world and bid farewell to the wilderness. She is an outstanding representative of our female ancestors and is revered as the "First Silkworm" by later generations. |
