南京市石子岗东晋墓的发掘

Excavation of Eastern Jin Tombs at Shizigang in Nanjing City

Two brick-chambered tombs were excavated at Shizigang south of Nanjing City proper in April 1994. They are close in location, identical in direction and similar in size and shape, either having a dome-covered chamber with a short corridor and a 凸 -shaped plan. So they must belong to the same family cemetery. The unearthed pottery, porcelain, bronze, iron and talcum objects number more than 40 pieces, of which the most valuable is a bronze seal with the six sides bearing legends. Judging from the tomb shape and grave goods, the tombs should be dated to the early Eastern Jin period, and the tomb-owner of M1 is Sun Shi, or Sun Gongyuan by another name. The excavation provided material data of great significance to studying the Eastern Jin tomb shape and burial custom in the Nanjing area, as well as the casting technology and using institution of the then seals with legends on the six sides.
