A group of stone carvings unearthed before the Tang Dynasty’s tomb A group of stone carvings unearthed before the Tang Dynasty’s tomb During the archaeological exploration and excavation in 2015, Shaanxi archaeologists cleaned up the Dingling Shendao site of Emperor Wu Zetian's three sons, Tang Zhongzong Li Xian, and found that it had 18 pairs of 36 stone carvings. Unfortunately, except for the individual preservation, the large Part has been destroyed. Zhang Bo, an associate researcher at the Shaanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology, who presided over archaeological work, said that on the basis of archaeological drilling in previous years, some of the architectural sites of the Dingling cemetery were excavated in 2015, mainly including the south gate of the cemetery, and the west of the south gate The side ruins, as well as the ruins of the Faniya Temple on the west side and the ruins of the pavilion without a plate. It turns out that there should be 18 pairs of 36 pieces of Dingling stone carvings. At present, there are only 3 pieces on the ground, including 2 stone people and a stone lion of the south gate. Other stone carvings have been destroyed. According to the exploration data of previous years, archaeologists found some broken stones in the original position of each stone in the Dingling Shinto, but it is not certain whether it is intact or destroyed. As a result, archaeologists cleaned them one by one in 2015, and found that the preservation situation was very poor, and most of the stone carvings had been destroyed. In addition, the archaeologists also cleaned up the Faniya Temple, but unfortunately the stone carvings in the Faniya Hall of Dingling were not well preserved, and no complete stone carvings were found.
