The findings include pieces of decorated porcelains, jewelleries made of stone, glass and agate, and iron hand tools buried in 14 jar-tombs and two earthen tombs.

Vice director of the Khanh Hoa Museum, Nguyen Tam, said those artifacts were unearthed in the old grave yard for Hoa Diem people who lived far back to 2,000 years B.C.

This was the third excavation in January this year at the Hoa Diem site. The work was jointly conducted by archaeologists from the Khanh Hoa Museum and the Waseda University, the Sapporo University and the Sophia University of Japan.
