Treasures to be found in Penglai



According to the Penglai city news, a few days ago, construction workers at a pipeline construction site found in the mud of the sea at 1.1 meters deep, a 7 meters long Ming Dynasty berm.
Specialised heritage workers then cleared the scene and found about 40 root wood piles and more than 56 Ming Dynasty blue and white tablets.



Those pictures do not represent ones that have been found, but only for purpose of information.

Some wood is supposed to be from the Huai, the rest are from the South. The cups and bowls are in blue and white, decorated with characters from the "Chenghua-reign" and also other words and animals. The specialised workers believe the porcalain is from the Ming Dynasty and the building materials from the South.
