Grave

In June 2010, the Chief of Archaeology Department at Nanjing Museum Wang Zhigao announced that a Ming Dynasty grave recently found near Zutang Mountain (祖堂山) in the Jiangning District of Nanjing was identified as that of Hong Bao (and not of Zheng He himself, as it was earlier surmised).

Famous quotes containing the word grave:

    “... The grave and my calm body are shut to your coming as stone,
    And the endless beginning of prodigies suffers open.”
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Heavily hangs the broad sunflower
    Over its grave i’ the earth so chilly;
    Heavily hangs the hollyhock,
    Heavily hangs the tiger-lily.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    I am of course confident that I will fulfil my tasks as a writer in all circumstances—from my grave even more successfully and more irrefutably than in my lifetime. No one can bar the road to truth, and to advance its cause I am prepared to accept even death. But may it be that repeated lessons will finally teach us not to stop the writer’s pen during his lifetime? At no time has this ennobled our history.
    Alexander Solzhenitsyn (b. 1918)
