Tianjin Shuangtuo Western Han Ancient Cultural Site

       Situated 35 kilometers west of Lutai Town, the county seat, and 1,500 meters west of Xitang Village, Panzhuang Town. Dating back to the Western Han Dynasty, it was discovered in 1975. The site is about 1 meter higher than the surrounding ground, covering an area of 30,000 square meters, with a cultural layer depth of 0.3 to 0.4 meters. Exposed relics include gray clay tiles, cylindrical tiles, pottery cauldrons, pottery jar rims, and rope-patterned bricks.

      The artifacts feature decorative patterns such as checkered, diamond, fabric, rope, string, appliqué, and half-pattern designs. A small number of black pottery fragments and wuzhu coins have also been found. It served as a residential site and burial ground during the Western Han Dynasty. Designated as a county-level protected site in 1959 and reaffirmed in 1981, it was later listed as a municipal-level key cultural heritage protection site (including the burial complex).
