In addition, in 1961, the archaeology teaching and research team of CUHK excavated two Han Dynasty tombs on campus; in 1981, CUHK found a Tomb of the Eastern Han Dynasty at the construction site of the Electric Education Building.

At that time, the faculty of the Department of Anthropology led all the students of the class of 1977 and 1979 to excavate and clean up the tombs of the Eastern Han Dynasty at the construction site of the electric education building.
