Two tombs from the time of the Southern Han Empire

These two tombs from the Southern Han Empire contained extensive collections of ceramics, bronze items, and jade pieces that archaeologists carefully excavated. The finds provide insight into the craftsmanship and trade goods of this early period in Guangzhou.

These tombs were built during the Southern Han dynasty and show how the elite of that time buried their dead. The construction style and burial goods come from an important transitional period in Chinese history.

The burial goods reveal how people lived and what they valued during the Southern Han period. Everyday objects show the trade networks they participated in and their place in society.

The site is easily accessible and maintains regular opening hours for visitors who want to learn about the excavation findings. On-site guides explain the archaeological discoveries and ancient burial practices.

The iron objects found in these tombs are particularly interesting because there is no evidence they were locally made. This suggests these materials were imported from distant regions.
