Abstract

In the Later Han Dynasty, a large number of criminals with different accusations and years of imprisonment were transferred by governments from various places to the capital Luoyang and surrounding areas as forced labor. After their death, a brick will be buried in the tomb, on which the name of the deceased, the date of death and the county where the prison was located were written. This is the origin of the texts on the bricks of criminals in Later Han Dynasty. There are some records about this batch of bricks, but so far there is still a lack of centralized sorting of the explanation. In addition to introducing the unearthing, recording and research of the texts on the bricks of criminals in Later Han Dynasty, based on the published pictures of the original texts on the bricks and the descriptions of the predecessors, this paper focuses on the texts on the bricks that were unearthed from the tomb of the Later Han Dynasty, in order to provide historical evidence for further language and other researches.
