Abavubukuli bathole amathuluzi amaningi avela emiphakathini yangaphambi komlando kuwo wonke umlando. Iningi lazo lakhiwe ngamatshe, kodwa iqembu labaphenyi eSpain lathola izikhali ze-rock crystal ezimangalisayo. Enye yezingcwecwe ezihlaba umxhwele kakhulu zekristalu, ezingene okungenani ku-3,000 BC, ikhombisa ikhono elejwayelekile lomuntu owalibaza.
Ukutholwa okumangalisayo kwenziwa ku- Montelirio tholos, ithuna le-megalithic eningizimu yeSpain. Lesi siza esikhulukazi sakhiwe ngama-slate amakhulu futhi singamamitha angama-50 ubude. Indawo yambiwa phakathi kuka-2007 no-2010, futhi isifundo ngamathuluzi ekristalu sakhululwa eminyakeni emihlanu kamuva izifundiswa ezivela eNyuvesi yaseGranada, iNyuvesi yaseSeville, kanye noMkhandlu Ophakeme WaseSpain Wocwaningo Lwesayensi. Bathole imicibisholo nama-blade angu-25 ngaphezu kwenkemba.
I-Rock crystal isakazeke ezindaweni ezingaphambi komlando wase-Iberia, ngokusho kocwaningo, yize kungavamile ukubhekwa ngokujula. Ukuqonda ukusebenza kwalezi zikhali eziyingqayizivele, kufanele siqale sihlole izimo ezitholakale kuzo.
Okutholwe ngamatoli aseMontelirio?
Ngaphakathi kwamaMontelirio tholos, kwatholakala amathambo abantu okungenani abangama-25. Ngokusho kophenyo lwangaphambilini, okungenani owesilisa oyedwa nabesifazane abaningi babulawa ngenxa yobuthi. Izinsalela zabesifazane zahlelwa ngendlela eyindilinga egumbini eliseduze kwamathambo omholi weqembu.
Kwatholakala nezinto eziningi zomngcwabo emathuneni, kuhlanganise “nezindwangu noma izingubo ezenziwe ngobuhlalu obungamashumi ezinkulungwane obubhoboziwe futhi buhlotshiswe ngobuhlalu benhlaka,” izinto ezenziwe ngophondo lwendlovu nezingcezu zamaqabunga egolide. Ngenxa yokuthi imicibisholo eyikristalu yatholwa ndawonye, ochwepheshe bakholelwa ukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi ibiyingxenye yomnikelo ongokwesiko. Kwatholakala ne-trousseau yomngcwabo, eyayiqukethe amazinyo endlovu, ubucwebe, izitsha neqanda lesintshe.
Inkemba engcwele?
Futhi kuthiwani nge-crystal dagger? “Kanye nesibambo sophondo lwendlovu kanye nesaka,” kwatholakala iyodwa kwelinye igumbi. Idese engu-8.5-intshi ubude ibunjwe ngendlela efanayo nezinye izingwegwe kusukela esikhathini somlando (umehluko, yiqiniso, ukuthi leyo minkenke yakhiwe ngetshe letsheza futhi lena iyikristalu).
I-crystal, ngokusho kochwepheshe, ngabe ibibambe inani elikhulu elingokomfanekiso ngaleso sikhathi. Umphakathi ophakeme abantu basebenzise leli tshe ukuthola amandla noma, ngokusho kwenganekwane, amakhono omlingo. Ngenxa yalokhu, le nkemba ye-crystal kungenzeka ukuthi yasetshenziswa emicimbini eyahlukahlukene. Isihlakala salesi sikhali yizinyo lendlovu. Lokhu, ngokusho kongoti, kungobunye ubufakazi bokuthi le nkemba ye-crystal kwakungeyesigaba esibusayo saleso sikhathi.
Ikhono elihle kubuciko
Isiphetho salo mnsangu we-crystal ubonisa ukuthi wawukhiqizwa izingcweti ezazinekhono emsebenzini wazo. Abacwaningi bakubheka “njengokuningi athuthukile ngobuchwepheshe” i-artifact eyake yavubukulwa esikhathini esidlule sase-Iberia, futhi ukuyiqopha bekuyodinga ubuhlakani obukhulu.
Usayizi wenkemba ye-crystal usho ukuthi yakhiwe ngebhulokhi elilodwa lengilazi elicishe libe ngu-20 cm ubude no-5 cm ubukhulu, ngokusho kochwepheshe. Ukuqoshwa kwengcindezi kwasetshenziselwa ukwakha imicibisholo engu-16, okubandakanya ukususa izikali ezincanyana onqenqemeni lwetshe. Lokhu kufana nemicibisholo yensengetsha ngokubukeka, noma kunjalo abacwaningi baveza ukuthi ukwenza izinto ezinjalo ze-crystal kudinga ikhono elengeziwe.
Incazelo yezikhali zekristalu
Izinto zalokhu kudalwa bekufanele zitholwe kude ngoba bezingekho izimayini ze-crystal eduzane. Lokhu kufakazela umbono wokuthi zazenzelwe abambalwa abakhethiwe ababekwazi ukukhokhela ukunethezeka kokuqoqa nokuguqula izinto ezinjalo zibe yizikhali. Kuyaqapheleka futhi ukuthi azikho kulezi zikhali ezibonakala sengathi bezingezomuntu oyedwa; esikhundleni salokho, konke kusikisela ukuthi zazenzelwe ukusetshenziswa kweqembu.
Abaphenyi bayachaza, "Cishe ziveza imvunulo yomngcwabo ebitholakala kuphela kubaphathi bale nkathi yomlando." Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ikristalu yedwala kumelwe ukuba yayinenjongo engokomfanekiso njengezinto ezingavuthiwe ezinezincazelo ezithile kanye nemithelela. Ezincwadini, kunezibonelo zamasiko lapho i-rock crystal ne-quartz isetshenziswa njengezinto ezingavuthiwe ukumela impilo, amakhono omlingo, nokuxhumana kokhokho,” kusho abacwaningi.
Yize singazi ngokuqinisekile ukuthi lezi zikhali zazisetshenziselwani, ukutholakala kanye nocwaningo lwabo kunikeza umbono omangazayo emiphakathini yakudala eyayihlala eMhlabeni eminyakeni engaphezu kwengu-5,000 XNUMX eyedlule.
