Pingyan folding belly basin and round foot cocoon shaped pot are similar to similar relics unearthed from the Qin Dynasty tomb in Gaozhuang, Fengxiang, Shaanxi. Therefore, it can be explained that the site was built in the Qin Dynasty. At the same time, according to the scale of the site and the analysis of the huge tiles, tube tiles and other building components, it is confirmed that the site is the site of a large-scale palace building in the Qin Dynasty - the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty's eastern tour palace.

Qin Shihuang won the throne (259-210 BC) at the age of 13, and personally managed the government at the age of 22. After 10 years of war, the six countries were eliminated, and finally became a unified country, the first centralized country, known as "Qin Shihuang" in history. [5]
First Emperor of Qin
Qin Shihuang was a successful politician of the landlord class in Chinese history. He ended the secession of feudal lords since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and established the first unified, multi-ethnic feudal empire. Since then, unity has become the mainstream of China's historical development. The system of emperor, three dukes and nine ministers created by him was inherited by later dynasties and had an impact for more than 2000 years. However, he also imposed severe punishment, abused the people's strength, and collected exorbitant taxes, leading to the death of Qin II. [6]
