What tombs of important people have not been found in China?
The imperial tomb of Xia Dynasty was not found because of its age and lack of written records.

From Tang Guoli to Pan Geng in Shang Dynasty, * * * experienced the first 10 generation and the first 19 generation kings. These tombs have no historical records and have not been discovered so far.

The Zhou Dynasty was divided into the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, which was the transitional period from slave society to feudal society in China. The written records since Shang Dynasty made it easier to find the tombs of Zhou Dynasty, but due to the long time, most of them were not found except the tombs of King Wen and Wang. However, the enfeoffment system at this time enabled the tombs of some princes to be discovered.

Two generations of Qin died, and the tombs have been found.

The Han Dynasty was divided into the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty. Although it is a little far away, important tombs have also been found. For example, the mausoleum of Emperor Gaozu.

Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties were eventful years in China. Due to the short rule of the country, emperors of all dynasties paid great attention to the safety of the mausoleum, and its construction and burial were relatively hidden, so it has not been discovered so far.

Cao Cao's mausoleum was not found either. It is said that before he died, Cao Cao told future generations how to keep his mausoleum secret and built many fake tombs to cover up the location of his mausoleum. It is the so-called generation of "deceiving the sky before death and deceiving others after death".

Sui and Tang Dynasties were the most prosperous stage of feudal society in China. The Sui Dynasty was passed down from generation to generation and died. The tomb of the second mausoleum was also found.

The main imperial tombs in the Tang Dynasty are: Li Yuan's Mausoleum of Emperor Taizong, Zhaoling of Emperor Taizong's Li Shimin, Ganling of Emperor Gaozong's Li Zhi, Dingling of Zhongzong's Li Xian, Qiaoling of Li Dan of Zong Rui, Tailing of Xuanzong's Li Longji, Jianling of Su Zongheng, Yuanling of Daizong's Li Yu, chongling of Dezong's Shili, Fengling of Shunzong's Li Yong, Jingling of Xianzong's Mason Lee, Guangling of Mu Zong's Li Heng and Jingzong Li. Although most of them have been found, there are still dry tombs of Wu Zetian that have not been opened.

Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms is another eventful autumn in China. At this time, there are not many imperial tombs left, except for the Houzhou Mausoleum and the Second Mausoleum of the Southern Tang Dynasty, most of which have been annihilated by history.

There are two existing cemeteries in Liao Dynasty, one is the Liao Zuling in the west of Liao Zuzhou, and the other is the Liao Qing cemetery in the north of Liao Qingzhou. Xixia Mausoleum is located at the foot of Helan Mountain in the west of Yinchuan City, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. There are 9 mausoleums and more than 70 tombs where nobles and heroes are buried.

The Jin Dynasty built a mausoleum in Dafang Mountain in Zhongdu (Beijing), where emperors of the Jin Dynasty were buried, and there are 17 existing mausoleum sites.

Song dynasty was divided into north and south dynasties. Although the tombs have not developed greatly, most of them have remained. There are eight tombs in Gongxian County in the Northern Song Dynasty and six tombs in Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty.

The Yuan Dynasty was a country established by Mongols. After the unification of the whole country, its nobles still kept the custom of secret burial. According to historical records, Mongolian aristocrats can't afford to go to the grave after their death, and only after burial can they "rub their horses to make it even." Then, in this cemetery, in front of the female camel, they killed the camel, soaked it with blood, and then sent thousands of knights to guard it. The next spring, after the grass grew luxuriantly, the soldiers moved their tents, but most people only saw the vast grassland and didn't know where the cemetery was. If the royal family wants to sacrifice, they will lead the way by pulling the female camel who lost her son. The place where the mother camel mourns is the cemetery. As there is no sign on the cemetery, it is impossible to determine the true location of the coffin. So the mausoleum of the Yuan Dynasty is still missing.

The Ming emperors since Judy, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, were buried in the Ming Tombs in the suburbs of Beijing. Only the tombs of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and his parents are not in the Ming Tombs. Ming Taizu's mausoleum is in Nanking, and the Ming Tombs are in Fengyang.

The Qing Dynasty was the last feudal dynasty in the history of China. After the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, except the last emperor Puyi, ten emperors built large-scale cemeteries in Zunhua County and Yixian County, Hebei Province. Because these two cemeteries are 0/00 miles away from the east and west of Beijing, they are called "Qing Dongling" and "Qing Xiling".
