In 2012 and 2013, the Institute of Archaeology, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Shandong Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology and Bureau of Cultural Relics, Linzi District conducted excavation to the remains of a mirror-casting workshop located to the south of Kanjiazhai Village within the large city of the Linzi City Site of the Qi State in Zibo City, Shandong. The recovered remains included casting pits, house foundations, wells, ash pits, kilns, paths and infant burials, the dates of which were mostly the Warring- States Period through the Qin and Han Dynasties; the ones related to the mirror-casting were casting pits, house foundations, wells and some ash pits. The pottery molds unearthed in the excavation were the face molds and back molds of mirrors. The stratigraphy, spatial structure and accumulation status as well as the large amount of mirror molds unearthed from the site all reflected that this site was a mirror-casting workshop site. The stratigraphic relationships and the unearthed artifacts showed that the date of this workshop was the Western Han Dynasty. The excavation of this mirror-casting workshop site provided valuable materials for the development of the relevant researches and can be seen as a great breakthrough of the researches on the bronze mirror-casting industry and technique of the Qin and Han Dynasties even the entire ancient China.
