The excavation of the three tombs of the Western Han Dynasty (206-25 AD) marks one of the major archaeological discoveries in China. Over 3000 cultural relics and a well-preserved female corpse were unearthed. Among the relics uncovered were bright-colored lacquer wares representing the highest level of workmanship; fine silks showing amazingly accomplished weaving technique; silk paintings with romantic themes of the Kingdom of Heaven and the craving for eternity; and inscriptions on silk demonstrating knowledge and wisdom of the ancient sages.
