Four tombs were excavated there in 1998. They are rectangular earth shafts with the opening smaller than the bottom, the earth filling rammed, and second-tier platforms built of mellow soil in two pits. All the tombs have coffins containing burials in a supine extended position, and waist-pits occur in the bottom of two tombs. The funeral objects are largely placed in the north and south of the tombs, between the outer and inner coffins. Among them are the bronze ding tripod, gui food container, pot, dou stemmed vessel, pan basin, he tripod, yi ewer, small bell and ge dagger-axe, the pottery ding, gui, pot, dou, jar, pan, he and yah steamer, and the stone shell, ge,gui obelisk and jue open ring. Their shape and combination indicate that the tombs go back to the early Spring-and-Autumn period and belong to the then Qin people.展开更多
