Several archeologists suspected that the main tomb is that of Liu He, grandson of Emperor Wu, the greatest ruler of the Western Han Dynasty, one of the most prosperous periods in Chinese history. Liu was given the title "Haihunhou" after he was deposed as emperor after only 27 days, dethroned by the royal clan because of his lack of talent and morals. Haihun is the ancient name of a very small kingdom in the north of Jiangxi.

Current important archaeological findings include a bronze pot containing chestnuts which may further prove the popularity of China's hot pot cuisine among ancient aristocrats, a pair of goose-shaped bronze lamps that can "swallow" smoke, chimes as well as other musical instruments, Wuzhu coins and gold coins and hoof-shaped ingots.
