What were the costumes of Qi in the Warring States Period?

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, with the gradual disintegration of the ritual system, the original order of honor and inferiority in clothing color was also destroyed. The most typical example is Qi Huangong's Good Purple. Because the monarch of a country likes purple, the people of Qi rushed to follow suit, and the last country also wore purple. Purple, as the "middle color" of the costume color in the Zhou Dynasty, is the so-called "unhealthy color" and stands for meanness.

The worship of purple in Qi destroyed the original dress code of Zhou Dynasty, but also challenged Zhou Li. In this regard, Confucius and Mencius, an important representative of Confucianism, expressed strong dissatisfaction and even disgust based on the maintenance of Zhou Li.

With the development of productivity, clothing culture, printing and dyeing technology and technology are constantly changing, and textile materials, colors and clothing styles are also showing a changing trend, showing a colorful situation, which has had a far-reaching impact on the later clothing modeling and evolution.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, the first naval battle in the history of China broke out in the southeast of Qingdao. However, at that time, both countries were small units with 1000 people. At that time, Wu paid more attention to the development of naval forces, with about 8,000 navies and Qi also had 4,500 navies. At the end of the Warring States Period, a navy of more than 20,000 people organized by Le Yi landed in Binzhou, Shandong.

Qi culture:

Qi culture, Qi culture is the culture of Qi culture in a specific historical period, which is usually called Qi culture. Qi culture mainly inherited Ji culture. During the Warring States period, the feud between local governors gradually destroyed the original situation of Zhou Wenhua, and local cultures began to change in the trend of "localization".

After the Warring States period, this situation became more obvious, but Qi culture still retained more Zhou culture factors. Qilu culture is the collective name of Qi culture and Lu culture. The State of Qi, which is adjacent to the seashore in the east, produced Taoist thoughts and theories represented by Jiang Taigong, and absorbed and developed the local local culture (Dongyi culture).

During the Spring and Autumn Period, Lu produced Confucianism represented by Confucius. These two ancient cultures are different. Relatively speaking, Qi culture is utilitarian, while Lu culture is ethical. Qi culture stresses innovation, while Lu culture respects tradition.

During the Warring States period, local scripts can be roughly divided into five major systems: Eastern Qi system, Northeast Yan system, Southern Chu system, Northern Jin system and Western Qin system, while Qi scripts belong to Eastern Qi system. Because the characters in each system are generally similar, only a small part of them are different. Therefore, there is not much problem in the communication between Qi Wen and other vassal states.
