Introduction to buried treasures: There is a rectangular stone pit at the bottom of the east end of the tomb passage, 4.56 meters wide, 10.5 meters long from east to west, and 1-3 meters deepest. It contains about 225 half liang coins and elm pod copper coins. Ten thousand coins, weighing about 3 tons, are purely copper coins commonly used in the early Western Han Dynasty. In this tomb passage, 43 pottery figurines were also unearthed, including figurines of gatekeepers, maids, cavalry, etc. The gatekeeper figurine is 78 centimeters high, wearing a crown and robe, and the clothes are painted. The maid figurine is standing and has a slender figure. The cavalry figurines stand on both sides of the tomb passage, divided into two groups of 20, with their legs in a bow-like riding posture. More than 20,000 pieces of gilt, gilt silver and iron chariot and horse equipment belonging to 20 chariots and horses, as well as crossbows, copper arrowheads, iron swords and other utensils were also found in the front and rear of the cavalry figurines. All these funerary artifacts are plain artifacts, equivalent to about one-third of the actual objects.
