RR 1 Practice/ Nuhenling

                Niuheliang is a burial site over many hills in Mongolia. It covers about 30 miles.  Site 1 is where ritual was held. About 4500 meters southeast of that, huge buildings are held. East of that huge stones are evenly spaced out that are tombs. This is a religious artifact for the Hongshan culture with temples and alters.

                The picture to the bottom is a tomb from this structure.  To this culture the stone tombs were most important relics to them. Coffins in the bottom of tombs were layered and layered with many slabs of stone to protect these people’s remains.  This tombs were held in ditch like structures that went down far to keep this sacred.

  1. Michael, you had some nice images. It seems your focus was object but there wasn't a clear focus on them. You seemed to focus on one thing towards the end of your writing but since it was at the end, it wasn't enough. You could have written more. I liked what you were leading to. Also keep an eye on your grammar.
