Located in Zuonao Village, ?rhe Town, Xiantao City, this tomb cluster dates from the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty. The tombs are distributed east-west along a relatively high ridge, covering an area of about 32,000 square meters. On the eastern side, there remains a large earthen mound on the ground surface, with a diameter of about 40 meters and rising 3–4 meters above the ground. It is commonly known as “Fairy Mountain.” Precious artifacts collected here include a four-eared net-patterned jar from the Han Dynasty, a celadon jar from the Jin Dynasty, and a two-eared jar from the Tang Dynasty. Among these, the four-eared net-patterned jar has been designated as a national first-class cultural relic. The tomb bricks are mostly plain, though some bear diamond-patterned designs. This tomb cluster covers a large area and holds significant academic value.
