According to information, this is a 350-year-old ancient tomb of the Tran Van family, which was found and buried by descendants at Doi Mountain, Hamlet 9. At around 5:00 a.m. on January 8, when the Tran descendants gathered at the Con Trop cemetery, they discovered that the ancestor's tomb had been dug up by thieves. The tomb was dug up, the coffin was tilted to one side, revealing the ancestor's body. The Tran descendants and those present that day were extremely surprised to discover that the body was still intact after nearly 350 years. The discovery of an ancient tomb hundreds of years ago, "inside the coffin outside", the body was still intact is a rare and strange thing. Unfortunately, no specialized agency has had time to study and research this special tomb, so people's discussions and questions about the tomb such as the exact age, burial techniques, embalming, "concrete" compound, scent... are still a mystery for the time being.
