3. Han Gon Sepulcher:
From Long Khanh
districts along National Road No.1, several kilometers from Tan Phong
T-junction in Xuan Tan commune (Long Khanh), along National Road No.56
toward Ba Ria-Vung Tau direction about 3 kilometers, Han Gon Ancestral
Tomb appear in front of visitors. In 1910, French colonists came and
established Ruber plantations, deforested and discovered Han Gon
Ancestral Tomb.
Size: the tomb is 4.20
meters long, 2.70 meters wide and 1.60 meters high; constituted by 6
huge granites assembling together weighed 50 tons. The rocks join
together via a system of carved slots as cover and floor. Two 7.5
meter-high granite columns stand at two edges of the tomb with
cross-section of 0.4 metersx1.10 meters and ten heaps of sand with
pyramid section are ranged from 3 meters to 4,10 meters. Hang Gon
Sepulcher possesses unusual big size so it is also known as Cu Thach
(Cu means Big and Thach rock).
According to archaeologists,
the tomb was built 2,000 years ago and the granite used to build up the
tomb only exist in Da Lat or Phan Rang. It is a wonder that how these
extremely heavy rocks could be carried on long way there without roads
and vehicles.
In 1992, Dong Nai Museum
restored the Cu Thach Han Gon in an effort to preserve a cultural
heritage and the sepulcher has been recognized a national historical
cultural relic this year.
The person who was
buried in the sepulcher may be ancestry of Ma, Ch’ro or Xtieng ethnic
groups in Southeast Vietnam. Today Han Gon sepulcher still keeps its
mystery that archaeologists have not discovered yet.
