物件历史 At the Mawangdui Han Tomb No.1 (belonging to Xin Zhui), during the evening of 25 April 1972, this T-shaped painting on silk was discovered on the coffin of the fourth layer. Over the course of the following days, it was carefully removed and secured for transport to the museum.
展出历史 A reproduction of this banner can be publicly viewed.
注释 This is a funeral procession banner. During the Han dynasty, people believed that the spirit would leave the body upon death, becoming a wandering spirit. The spirit was called back to the body before burial by a banner, while the soul was restored by leaving the body in the coffin at home for a few days before burial to allow its return to the body. The banner was placed in front the coffin and would be held up while the coffin was being carried, guiding the spirit to the burial ground. After the memorial ceremony, the banner would be placed on top of the innermost coffin to be buried. This way, the spirit ascends heaven and the soul goes underground. This traditional practice is still extant in some form today.
