Chinese archaeologists have discovered a burial tomb for a noble that could date back to the Liao Dynasty which ruled from 916 to 1125 AD in China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.
The tomb, 300 metres from the tomb of a concubine, is in Duolun county, according to officials at the regional institute of archeology.
"They are in the same valley. Its owner may be a key member of the concubine's family," Gai Zhiyong, deputy head of the institute, was quoted as saying by state-run Xinhua news agency.
Currently, archaeologists are removing the tomb door, which is made from crystal-like bricks and its passage features black bricks. Gai said the delicate decorations inside the grave show the high rank of the noble. Similar decorations have only been found in two Liao Dynasty tombs and both were high-ranking nobles.
The Liao Dynasty was founded by the Khitan tribes and ruled the northern part of China.
