The Aoluguya Ewenki people, known as "the last hunting tribe in China," is the only ethnic minority group in China that raises reindeer. More than 20 years ago, they moved from the deep forests in the Dahinggan Mountains to Genhe City to resettle, but their tradition of herding reindeer was still preserved. Ayousha is one of the Aoluguya Ewenki people who spent her childhood in the deep forest with her family. In order to inherit the ethnic tradition of herding reindeer, Wu Qiming, Ayousha's husband and man of Han nationality, accompanied her back to the forest from the city in 2019, and together they set up a reindeer herding site in a forest in Jinhe Town.

The discovery was one of China's top ten new archaeological discoveries that year. The tomb complex was built in consistence with the Han Dynasty style brick-chambered to
