via Vietnam Net, 08 February 2022: A feature on the exhibits at the Binh Duong Museum.

Two national treasures – a wooden burial jar with a bronze drum as a lid and an animal figure dating back thousands years ago – are among about 1,300 artifacts and 500 scientific documents on display at the Binh Duong Museum.

A wooden burial jar with a bronze drum as a lid discovered in Phu Chanh commune, Tan Uyen town was recognised as a national treasure by the government in 2018.

The artifact was uncovered around the end of 1998 by Nguyen Van Cuong, a villager living in Vinh Tan commune, on a paddy field in Phu Chanh at a depth of around 1.8 – 2.5 metres.
