The Tomb of Chu King on the Shizi Mountain 狮子山楚王陵

狮子山楚王陵是西汉早期分封在徐州的第三代楚王——刘戊的陵墓，它位于中国江苏省徐州市狮子山上，四千余件兵马俑是楚王陵的重要陪葬品。
Located on the Shizi Mountain in Xuzhou, Jiangsu province is the Tomb of Liu Wu, the third-generation king of the State of Chu from the early Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 25). More than 4,000 terra-cotta warriors were designated as burial objects to the tomb.
狮子山楚王陵发现于1984年，十年后，发掘了主人墓——楚王陵。
The Tomb of Chu King was first discovered in 1984, but it was not until 10 years later that the tomb was unearthed.
楚王陵坐北朝南，“依山为陵，凿山为葬”，陵墓直接开凿于山体之中。陵墓南北总长117米，宽13.2米，总面积851平方米，开凿石方量5100余立方米，宏大的地宫几乎把山体掏空。其庞大的规模、恢宏的气势、奇特的建筑结构，无不令人叹为观止。
The tomb faces the south and is directly cut into the mountain, “taking the mountain as the tomb structure and chiseling into the mountain as the burial service.” From south to north it is 117 m long and 13.2 m wide, with a total area of 851 sq m. With a rock excavation volume of 5,100 cu m, the grand underground palace almost stripped out the body of the mountain. The enormous scope of the tomb, with its imposing appearance and peculiar building structure, makes it an attraction to all.
狮子山楚王陵出土了金缕玉衣、玉杯、兵器等众多国家级珍贵文物。
From the excavations at the Chu King’s Tomb, there have been unearthed many national-level precious cultural artifacts including a jade burial suit sewn with gold wire, jade goblets and armory.
