Tomb with ancient chariots found in central China

Archaeologists in China have uncovered a tomb with 2400-year-old chariots and horses. The burial pit was uncovered in central China, in the city of Xinzheng, near Zhengzhou in Henan province.

Scientists believe the tomb may have belonged to a noble family of the Zheng state (806–375 BC), which was a vassal kingdom that governed during the Zhou dynasty (1100–221 BC). Archaeologists found dozens of chariots and the skeletons of around 100 horses.
