Comments:Rawson 1992:After the fall of the Han dynasty, the use of tomb models declined. They reappear some centuries later, but with new emphasis on figures rather than buildings. Relatively rare examples of figures, horsemen and carts anticipate the large tomb figure industry which grew from the 7th century AD.
