Guomaiyan Tomb Cluster

Located on a hill ridge at the border between Huangshigang Village in Yanglinshi Town, Songzi City, and Guanqiao Village in Yanjing Town, Li County, Hunan Province, the Guomaiyan Tomb Cluster is a relic from the Eastern Han Dynasty. The tombs are arranged from east to west, spanning 325 meters in length and 80 meters in width, with a total area of 26,000 square meters. The surface features a large number of fragmented tomb bricks decorated with geometric patterns including crosshatches, diamonds, and triangles. A small number of tomb chambers are exposed, and relics such as fragments of gray pottery jars have been collected. This tomb cluster covers a relatively large area, has a dense distribution, and is generally well-preserved, offering significant academic value.
