Chongqing Tu Jing Han Dynasty Tomb Cluster
Introduction The Tu Jing Han Dynasty Tomb Cluster is situated in Hongchi Village, Tu Jing Township, about 25 kilometers northeast of Zhong County. It consists of 15 Han tombs. At the entrance of one tomb passage stands a gray pottery horse pulling a large cart, guided by a pottery coachman beside a red pottery steed near a pottery well. Inside the tombs, a variety of pottery figures, birds, beasts, houses, ponds, pools, and fields are accompanied by an array of silver, copper, and iron utensils and ornaments, all exquisitely crafted and abundant in detail. Tomb No. 5 is a well-preserved burial site from the Three Kingdoms period, with orderly interior arrangements. Its funerary objects mainly consist of pottery figurines and vessels, making it an important cultural relic for studying the history of the Three Kingdoms.
