JINAN, Feb. 23 (Xinhua) -- A total of 168 tombs were recently unearthed in Jinan, the capital city of east China's Shandong Province, according to the archaeology institute of Jinan.
The tombs were discovered at a construction site of a metro depot. Among them, Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) tombs have a predominant presence, followed by those from the Han Dynasty (202 B.C.-220 A.D.).
