Summary

Description
English: Detail of a mural from an Eastern Han tomb at Zhucun 朱村, Luoyang 洛陽, Henan province. The two figures in the foreground are playing Liubo, with the playing mat between them, and the Liubo board to the side of the mat. The two red, circular objects next to the liubo board are probably intended to represent lacquer wine cups. The player on the right is taking his turn, with his right hand raised up as if about to throw down the six throwing sticks. The mural is coloured using "Han Blue" and "Han Purple" pigments.
Date Eastern Han (25-220 AD)
