SONG DYNASTY TOMB & PORCELAIN FOUND IN NORTH CHINA

      A construction team unearthed an ancient tomb when they were working in Tongcheng City's Kongcheng County, east China's Anhui Province, said local authorities Friday.

      The coffin was not rotten, but the human remains inside had utterly decomposed. Three porcelain bowls, two pottery pots and more than 20 bronze coins were also found inside the coffin.

      The style of the bowls indicated the tomb dated back more than 1,000 years ago to the Song Dynasty, said Ye Xin, a staff of Cultural Relics Management Department of Tongcheng.

      Kongcheng County is a renown historical and cultural county which was established in the Sui and Tang Dynasties (581-907).
