Description
English: Close-up view of a Chinese mid-Eastern-Han Dynasty (25–220 CE) ceramic architectural model of a fortified multistory manor house with a covered bridge extended to a smaller watchtower (seen in the alternate picture below). This model was excavated by archaeologists in 1993 from an Eastern-Han tomb at Jiazuo, Henan Province, China. The main building is 192 cm tall, and has a courtyard with gate-towers, an exterior stairway leading from the courtyard to the front balcony of the first level, and four sets of rooftops. This information is taken from:
