Chu tombs at Banligang situate 12km south to Changde city. Seventy-five tombs were excavated there, including sixty-eight dated to the Eastern Zhou period, from 1997 to 1999. The tombs are divided into three groups, namely earth-pit with one path, earth-pit with a niche or platform, and barely earth-pit. Two hundred and sixty-two pieces of funeral artifacts, including 245 potteries, 15 bronzes, 1 stone and 1 iron objects, were found. The potteries are grouped into the group of utensils, such as li tripod, guan jar, bo bowl and dou, and the group of pottery vessels as replica of bronze vessels, such as ding tripod, dun vessel, hu jar, he box and others. These tombs are dated between the late Spring and Autumn period and the late Warring States period. The excavation provides precious data for studies on Chu tombs and Chu culture.
