The pottery barbecue grill from Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220) is 20-cm-long, 16.5-cm-wide, and 14-cm–high. The grill, which has strong resemblance to today's grills, has two crooked chisels on its top, which bunches five cicadas. Though having weathered many years, the cicadas can still be seen clearly.
