BEIJING: Archeologists in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region have discovered a group of ancient tombs in Aletay which are thought to be about as old as 3000 years.
According to the captain of the excavation team, they have found 61 tombs so far, with internal structures varying from each other.
Meanwhile, about 60 pieces of funerary items dating back to 2000 to 3000 years ago were also unearthed. Surprisingly, these pottery pots and bronze wares shared many similar characters with those used in central China, thousands of kilometers away from the excavation site.
