As the saying goes: "Food is the most important thing for the people." As the most common thing in people's lives, various regions have naturally developed their own food culture over the past thousands of years. For example, British dark cuisine is also quite popular on the Internet, as well as cultures in Japan and other places where seafood is the staple food, and in Italy where noodles are the staple food.

These places have created their own food culture based on ingredients from their own regions. The area of ????our country is so large that each region has its own food culture, and it has also formed a distribution of rice in the north and south. Currently, Italy is recognized internationally as the country that invented noodles. However, with the discovery of archaeological research, Italy's status is likely to be challenged four thousand years ago.

In 2002, an ancient tomb was excavated in Qinghai. After identification, archaeological experts believed that this ancient tomb has a history of nearly four thousand years. After opening the tomb, the archaeological team did not find anything valuable in it because it took too long.

But after carefully cleaning the tomb, the experts actually found an upside-down pottery bowl in the corner of the tomb. Under this pottery bowl, there are actually noodles from four thousand years ago. If this were just regular noodles, it wouldn't really be anything special to the experts. But the special thing is that this is an ancient tomb from four thousand years ago. Why does a bowl of noodles appear here? It’s impossible for someone to come into the ancient tomb specially and bring noodles in to eat, right? This suddenly aroused the curiosity of experts.

You must know that more than 4,000 years ago, experts believed that this period was in the Neolithic Age. In this era, humans basically did not have farming. Moreover, in our country's historical records, the period when farming really appeared was during the era of Dayu.

Of course, it is still debated whether Dayu really existed, and experts have not found definite evidence. But at the very least, the Neolithic Age four thousand years ago was far earlier than the era of Dayu. In other words, people's staple food at that time was most likely obtained by hunting wild animals and collecting plants.

The mere fact that pasta requires wheat is surprising enough. What's more, noodles are something that the production process is quite cumbersome in the pasta culture. Therefore, when the noodles were unearthed, experts were very shocked. It was specially protected and sent to a professional research institute for detailed identification.

After experts spent several weeks and conducted multiple identifications, the results were finally revealed. This noodle is indeed a "noodle", but the difference is that this noodle is made from a small noodle. Made from rice flour, not wheat flour.

Of course, due to time issues, this noodle has long since become a hard fossil and has little value as a cultural relic. But its impact on history is quite profound. If we investigate carefully, this noodle is likely to have a huge change in the history we currently understand.

After all, in the Neolithic Age, some people were able to make noodles, which means that a small-scale farming culture was likely to have appeared. After the farming culture was produced, culture and technology must have had a huge impact. Development, if more cultural relics from that period of history can be found to prove this. Perhaps archaeological experts will be able to fill in the gaps in the Neolithic Age more completely.

And according to current historical records in our country, the earliest time when noodles appeared in our country was during the Eastern Han Dynasty nearly two thousand years ago. It is nearly hundreds of years later than Italy in Europe. In the ancient Roman ruins excavated in Italy in the last century, murals were discovered about the ancient Romans kneading and cutting noodles.

It is precisely because of the age and content of these murals that people have truly confirmed that the birthplace of noodles is today's Italy. Subsequent archaeological surveys have proven this to be true. To this day, pasta is still a well-known Western delicacy around the world.

But with the discovery of this bowl of noodles, it is likely to rewrite the history of the origin of spaghetti. After all, in comparison, our country is nearly two thousand years earlier. In this regard, even "Nature" magazine published a report about this noodle, admitting that China is the country that really invented noodles.

Although for Chinese experts, the historical significance behind this bowl of noodles is far higher than this false reputation. But for Italy, this is not the case. Just like our country's traditional culture, pasta culture is also a food culture that is deeply rooted in their bones. Noodles are one of the most representative cultural symbols. For this reason, many people in the world currently believe that this noodle is probably not real.
