Mawangdui is an archaeological site located in Changsha, Hunan province. The site consists of two saddle-shaped small hills, set20 meters apart, that are connected to each other underground.
Mawangdui contains the tombs of three people from the western Han Dynasty (206 BC–9 AD), including Marquis Li Cang, his wife, and a male who is believed to be their son. The site was excavated from 1972 to 1974.
Tombs No 1 and No 2 have been filled, and only tomb No 3 is open to visitors. Most of the artifacts from Mawangdui are now on display at the Hunan Provincial Museum, which is free to visit.
