Among the uncovered graves the largest is the No. 10 Han tomb, a rectangular catacomb consisting of a passage, a corridor and a chamber, with the major axis pointing to the west and east. It yielded 47 funeral objects, including pottery pots, a urn, granary, stove, well and table molds, incense burners, a dish, eared cups, a zun trileg cylindric container and tomb figures, a bronze mirror, and a small iron knife. Its whole appearance suggests that the tomb goes back probably to an earlier stage of the mid Eastern Han period and even to the late stage of the early Eastern Han.展开更多
