  Xiwang Tombs (First Batch of Provincial-Level Protected Sites)

  Era: Shang and Zhou Dynasties

  Location: Northeast of Xiwang Village, Nanzhang Town, Zhangzi County

  The cemetery is higher in the north and lower in the south, stretching approximately 400 meters from east to west and about 250 meters from north to south, covering a total area of around 100,000 square meters. Due to soil extraction by a brick factory, the tomb complex has been severely damaged. During the 1995 cultural relics survey, four rectangular earthen pit tombs were discovered on the cliff face. The soil was a mixture of various types, and according to expert assessments, it is an ancient tomb cluster dating back to the Shang and Zhou periods.

The Xiwang Tombs are a provincial-level key cultural relics protection unit.
