As one of the “Top Ten Archeological Discoveries” in 2015, the Royal Tomb of Haihun Kingdom (a fief of the Han empire in modern Jiangxi province) in the Han Dynasty (206BC-AD220) is the best-preserved and most structurally intact principality tomb from the Eastern Han Dynasty (25-220) found in China up to now.
In this gallery of the Jiangxi Museum you can appreciate the delicate cultural relics which reflect the lifestyle, the aesthetic taste and the craftsmanship two thousand years ago, and conjure up the legendary life of the tomb occupant Liu He, or the Marquis of Hanhun, beyond the written historical records.
