A jade seal found in the interior coffin of the tomb helped identify its master as "Liu He", name of the Marquis of Haihun, who is also the grandson of Emperor Wu whose reign ushered in one of the most prosperous periods in China's history. Over 10,000 pieces of cultural relics were unearthed from the tomb during the 5-year-long excavation. (Xinhua/Wan Xiang)
