These tombs have been attributed to the Warring States period. The other came from cliff tombs found in 1978 in Guixi, Jiangxi province, illustrated in Wenwu, Beijing, 1980, no. 11, pp. 1-25, figs 13:19, 14:25. These tombs have been dated from one carbon-14 sample to the late Spring and Autumn - early Warring States period.
