Ten famous ancient tombs in China.
1. The Western Zhou Dynasty Tomb, namely the site of Zhougong Temple in Shaanxi Province, is the highest-level Lingpo cemetery in the Western Zhou Dynasty. At the beginning of the excavation, Tomb No.32, the highest specification among the cemeteries with high hopes, was even unearthed in 2002 due to serious theft, but few cultural relics were unearthed. The tomb was previously identified as the tomb of a vassal monarch, and was later suspected to be the tomb of the Duke of Zhou. However, due to the lack of conclusive identification of unearthed objects, the identity of the tomb owner is still unknown.
Early Spring and Autumn Period
2. The tomb of Jinhou, located in Yang She Village, Quwo County, Shaanxi Province, was found because it was stolen. The two tombs that have been cleared were stolen in the early days, and experts speculate that it is probably a tomb-destroying behavior related to revenge. Because it was stolen, there was no seal or inscription on the identity of the tomb owner. Whether the owner of the tomb is really the Duke and Duchess of Jinwen may always be a mystery.
the Spring and Autumn Period
3. Qin Cemetery is located in Dabaozi Mountain, Yongxing, Lixian County, Gansu Province. The discovery of this tomb is of great significance. For a long time, the ancient mystery of the earliest site of the Western Huang Mausoleum among the four mausoleums of Qin State excavated by archaeologists in China has finally been solved. According to experts' research, Qin Cemetery is the couple's tomb of the founding monarch of Qin State or his son Qin Wengong. The tomb provides new information for studying the mausoleum system and history of Qin State. /kloc-the tomb was seriously stolen 0/5 years ago, and a large number of precious cultural relics are still lost overseas.
Early warring States period
4. Guo Zhuang's Tomb has been excavated at least 17 times, including 1 time in the Warring States, 7 times in the Eastern Han Dynasty and 9 times in modern times. However, due to its perfect anti-theft system, a large number of precious objects were still unearthed after the excavation of the cemetery, which can be regarded as a miracle. It has many ingenious anti-theft mechanisms and is a typical gravelly sand tomb with a depth of17m. The owner of the tomb should be a prominent senior aristocrat in Chu State.
Warring States (Chu)
5. Jiuliandun ancient tomb, because the soil in the cemetery is sandy, it is often in danger of collapse, but it is precisely because of the collapse that grave robbers entered the southern suburbs, so the loss is not great. There are many Chu tombs, but ten of them are empty and most of them have been stolen. A large number of exquisite bronzes were unearthed in the tomb, and the owner of the tomb was considered to be a senior official of the State of Chu.
Han Dynasty
6. The Han Tomb of Shizishan in Xuzhou was stolen in the early years. Because of their guilty conscience and haste, grave robbers leaked from several sealed ear rooms on both sides of the cemetery road of King Chu of Lion Mountain, which made a large number of cultural relics and treasures escape the disaster. The golden jade clothes found in this tomb are considered to be the most exquisite jade clothes found in China. Jade * * *, a total of 4248 pieces, are the best in jade. It's a pity that the gold thread on Jinyu's clothes was taken away by grave robbers.
Between Han and Tang dynasties
7. Laoshan Han Tomb, located in Shijingshan District, Beijing, was discovered in a case of robbing an ancient tomb that was uncovered at the end of 1999. The tomb was badly stolen, the owner was dragged out of the coffin, and there were few cultural relics left in the tomb, which was disappointing. Through the restoration of human bones, the face of the tomb owner has been completely presented, but his identity is still a mystery.
the Tang Dynasty
8. Princess Yongtai's Tomb. On the right side of the tomb, there is a stolen hole directly attached to the wall of the tomb, which is between the tomb and the tunnel in front. The front of the tomb was blocked by filling soil, and then by the brick wall of the tomb. Only here can you enter the ancient tomb, and the accuracy of the choice is amazing. There are skeletons, chisels, hammers and so on. The bottom of the stolen hole means that after the stolen hole was opened, the man went into the tomb to steal the treasure, and was finally suffocated by his ungrateful partner on the ground.
Song dynasty
9. Qin Gui's only son's tomb, the "suspected Qin Gui's tomb" in Jiangning, Nanjing in 2006, is actually owned by Qin Gui, the only son of Qin Gui. More than 0/00 pieces of gold, silver, copper, lacquer, porcelain and iron cultural relics were unearthed from the three tombs. The tomb is in the shape of an inverted nail, facing the north. Qin Gui's tomb in the middle has been stolen, and its owner is nowhere to be found. The tomb in the northwest corner is the tomb of Qin Yi's mistress, but because there is no epitaph, I don't know who Qin Yi's mistress is.
Ching Dynasty
10. Tomb of Cixi in Dongling. Empress Dowager Cixi loved jewelry, jade and gold and silver utensils before her death. After her death, the treasure buried in the coffin was worth as much as 120 million silver.
