flag Thirty-one ancient tombs from China’s Western Zhou Dynasty, including elite burials with rich artifacts, have been discovered in Shaanxi Province.

flag A cluster of 31 ancient tombs from China’s Western Zhou Dynasty, dating to around 3,000 years ago, has been uncovered in Fuping County, Shaanxi Province. flag Excavations since August 2022 by Chinese archaeological teams revealed hierarchical burials, with two high-grade tombs containing three-layer coffins and over 300 artifacts like jade pendants, halberds, and stone chimes, while smaller tombs held only simple grave goods. flag Five pits with chariot and horse remains were also found. flag The orderly layout suggests a family burial system and centralized cemetery, offering insights into Western Zhou social and political organization, though no inscriptions allow definitive identification of the buried individuals.
