Tombs in Liao Dynasty have the characteristics of Qidan nationality. Besides square tombs, circular tombs are also very popular. Generally, it is a single tomb, but there are also two rooms before and after the noble tomb with higher status. The tombs of Liao Xuma in Chifeng and Zhao Dejun, King of Qi in Beijing, have three chambers, namely, front, middle and back, and there are many ear chambers, showing the characteristics of "multi-chamber". Sometimes there are simple wooden structures in the tomb, and colorful paintings are painted. In addition to wooden coffins, sarcophagus is also very popular among burial utensils. Some tombs are painted with felt tents and sarcophagus grazing, reflecting the nomadic life of the Khitan people. In the late Liao Dynasty, tombs with octagonal or hexagonal planes began to appear. This period was more influenced by the tombs of the Northern Song Dynasty. Especially in the tombs of Han people, some are decorated with brick carved tables and chairs in brick rooms with imitation wood structure, while others draw "Yan Fang" and filial piety stories in murals, similar to the tombs of the Northern Song Dynasty.
The funerary objects of aristocratic tombs in Liao Dynasty are characterized by a large number of saddles, armor, weapons, metal masks and copper gloves, as well as various household appliances such as gold, silver, ceramics and iron. The cockscomb pot in ceramics is also unique to Liao tombs (see the picture of white glazed cockscomb pot in color map). In the middle period, the harness and weapons gradually decreased, and the shape of the cockscomb pot evolved from a leather bag to a beam-lifting device. In the late Liao Dynasty, tombs were generally buried unarmed, and the harness was greatly simplified, while the cockscomb pot disappeared. Since the second half of the early period, there are often stone epitaphs in Chinese or Qidan in Liao tombs, which are similar in shape to those in Tang and Song Dynasties.
