The Xuyang Cemetery in Yichuan County,Henan Province,is associated with the Luhun Rong who migrated to the Central Plains.The cemetery contains elements of the Chu,Jin and Xirong cultures,reflecting the exchanges and influences between the Luhun Rong and the states of Jin and Chu.The Luhun Rong was originally one of the northern steppe peoples and moved south to settle in Guazhou on the west bank of the Yellow River,north of Huashan and south of Hancheng,and was later forced to migrate to Yichuan.For more than a hundred years,the Luhun Rong maneuvered between Qin and Jin,experiencing a transition from loyalty to Jin to"turning to Chu",and was eventually destroyed by Jin,becoming a victim on the road to the struggle for supremacy.
