  Zouwu Han Tombs Cluster

    Located to the west of Mushan Village in Zouwu Town, the ancient tombs are all built with stone chamber structures, mostly in two types: double-chambered and single-chambered. The double-chambered tombs feature a front hall and a rear chamber, and the burial pottery includes items such as tripods, pots, and boxes. The single-chambered tombs have simple structures made of thin bluestone slabs on all four sides, known as stone casket tombs. Many of the unearthed tomb stones are engraved with images using common bas-relief techniques, depicting patterns such as figures, architecture, rare birds, and exotic beasts. It is one of the larger mountainous Han tomb clusters in northern China. In 1993, it was designated as a municipal-level key cultural relics protection unit by the Zaozhuang Municipal People's Government.
