2,400 Year Old Pot of Soup Found in a Tomb

A Xian pot of soup from 2,400 years ago was found in a tomb.  The 2,400 year old bronze vessel was found near the capital of Xian.  Archaeologists also believe they found a container of wine.  
"It's the first discovery of bone soup in Chinese archaeological history," the Global Times quoted Liu Daiyun of the Shaanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology as saying.
"The discovery will play an important role in studying the eating habits and culture of the Warring States Period (475-221 BC)."
