Summary[edit]
| Description |
中文（臺灣）：山彪1號墓出土犧尊（河南省新鄉市衛輝市唐莊鎮山彪村），臺北市南港區中研次分區中研里（舊庄）
English: The Shan-piao cemetery site is located in Chi County, Honan (present day Wei-hui City). Tomb M1 at the site was the largest tomb excavated, and it also produced the richest amount of artifacts. Tomb M1 is a vertical pit tomb, with the bottom of the tomb chamber measuring 7.1m north-south by 7.4m east-west: these dimensions would place it in the range of middle to large-scale tombs of the Eastern Chou period. The excavators found that the inner and outer coffins had both disintegrated, leaving only ashy traces of the planking of the wooden outer-coffin. Four sacrificial human skeletons were located to the side of the inner coffin. Stone and charcoal were packed along the four outer sides of the outer-coffin: the charcoal would have prevented moisture and tree roots from penetrating the coffin chamber while the hard stone was meant to thwart grave robbers. Perhaps because of this, although the tomb had been rodded, only a small portion of it was damaged. |
