An exhibition of bamboo slips discovered at the tomb of a local official back in the Qin Dynasty (221 BC-207 BC) kicked off here on Tuesday. The official is believed to have diligently recorded documents on over 1,100 bamboo slips that formed one of China's earliest encyclopedias. The official, aged 45 to 50 upon his death, was owner of bamboo slips with over 40,000-characters preserved in his tomb. The bone remains and bamboo slips were all first unearthed in 1975 at a tomb site in Shuihudi, Yunmeng County of Hubei Province. (Xinhua/Xiao Yijiu)
