Gold relics found in Western Han tomb
Chinese characters shang(up), zhong(middle) and xia(down) are engraved on the gold ingots. Gold plates were also found in the tomb which dates back to Western Han Dynasty (206 BC - 24 AD). Each of the gold plates is 23 centimeters long, 10 centimeters wide and 0.3 centimeters thick. The tomb is thought to belong to Liu He, grandson of Emperor Wu. Liu was given the title "Haihunhou" after he was deposed as emperor after only 27 days. Haihun is the ancient name of a very small kingdom in the north of Jiangxi.
