From February to September of 2005, in the course of construction work, several tombs of the Eastern Zhou were discovered and excavated to the west of Tiyuchang Road, Luoyang City. Among them, tomb M8830 is well-preserved, having never been looted. M8830 is a rectangular vertical-pit tomb with a wooden tomb chamber （guo） and a coffin （guan） ; the opening at ground level was 3.7 meters long from north to south and 2.1 meters wide from east to west. The burial objects include bronzes, jades, pottery, stone ob- jects, and so on, the majority of which are bronze ritual vessels. The bronzes are especially fine, including chariot-and-horse fittings and ritual objects of various types, such as Ding, Fu, Gui, Fang Hu, Lei, Zhou, Yi, and so on. The tomb structure and the unearthed objects suggest that the tomb was built in the middle Spring and Autumn period, and its owner must have been a high-ranking nobleman. This excavation provides new information for the study of bronzes of the Eastern Zhou.
