Because this ancient tripod looks very similar to a pressure cooker, it was nicknamed the ancient pressure cooker by netizens, but the internal structure is definitely different.

this tripod is located in Baoding, Henan province, and it is a funerary object from the tomb of Jing Wang and his wife.

Mancheng Han Tomb is the tomb of Liu Sheng, the King of Zhongshan in the Western Han Dynasty, and his wife Dou Wan. It is known as the first scene in the world. Most of the cultural relics unearthed in it are utensils related to food cooking, which are very beautiful in appearance and well designed. One of them, a bronze tripod with a bear's foot, was dubbed by netizens as an ancient pressure cooker, consisting of three squatting bears. The bear's expression is also very cute, and the overall shape of the bronze tripod is very good. It can be used to stew food, and the taste is very delicious. Of course, it does not have the function of modern high pressure. Stewing food is still relatively slow, and it takes some time to achieve delicious taste. It has to be said that the ancients had high wisdom many years ago, and it is really not simple to design such ingenious tools.

the wisdom of ancient people is still quite complicated.

This bronze tripod is sealed all around. When stewing food, the hot air in it won't be lost quickly, which can make bone food easier to taste and stew. It has a similar function to the pressure cooker, but it is still a little long in time. The stewing time of the pressure cooker is relatively short, but the air tightness has been greatly improved, which made Jing Wang like it very much at that time. This has to make us think that the wisdom of ancient craftsmen is really admirable.

The bronze tripod with a bear's foot looks really cute.

This tripod cover is like an upside-down bowl, with a slightly bulging top. There are four small monsters around the top, and the distance is very equal. It looks very cute, just like the food in a protective pot. If the lid is closed, it can be sealed with a spiral pattern, so that no gas can escape, which ensures that the delicate flavor of the food remains in the tripod and is very consistent with the appearance of the pressure cooker.

Therefore, it is very appropriate for netizens to call the bronze tripod an ancient pressure cooker, but it is not an exaggeration.
