The number of bamboo and wooden slips found at a tomb complex in China is the most among any ancient tomb in the country so far.
As many as 4,546 slips were recently unearthed from a 2,000-year-old tomb in Jingzhou, Hubei province, as announced in a news conference in Beijing last week.
This excavation is expected to offer vast knowledge of Chinese society back then.
