Ancient sites get a new life

Ancient sites get a new life
One of the finds is an amber figurine of a woman riding a sheep. It would have been state-of-the-art at that time and is a national treasure, says Shi.

"The tomb is built in a simple style, which inherits characteristics of the Eastern Han Dynasty," says Shi. "However, its extraordinarily large scale gives it a royal aura."

For instance, the burial chamber is 12 meters deep, 18 meters long and 13.5 meters wide, and has a 36-meter-long tomb passage, according to Wang Xianqiu, the archaeologist in charge of the site.

"We've also surveyed about a 1 million square meters area around the tomb, and found an even bigger tomb 400 meters away," says Wang.

"It could be Cao Rui's tomb, but we have decided not to touch it."

A common practice among today's Chinese archaeologists is not to rush to excavate emperors' mausoleums, even though their locations are confirmed.

For four years in a row, projects undertaken by Shi's institute have been included in "Top 10 Archaeological Discoveries in China", an annual survey of top experts, which is organized by the China Cultural Relics News.

"I'm confident that the discovery of this Cao Wei tomb will be on that list," says Shi.

"But, compared with gaining honors, it's more important to let citizens participate in archaeological excavations and learn the history of their hometown," he adds.
