Experts unearthed 16 groups of tombs with 14 tombs made of soil, one jar tomb and one vase tomb. All tombs are oriented in the northeastern-southwestern direction. Many rare objects made of stone, bronze, iron, terra-cotta and pottery were discovered in the seven holes.
After the excavation, scientists from the Vietnam History Museum and the Vietnam Cultural Heritage Agency said that Bai Coi is a 2000-year-old civilization. Further excavations will likely unearth many more invaluable secrets of the ancient civilisation.
