The Guojiashan Hill is the location of the Wen Family Cemetery of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the M9 of which excavated earlier yielded Wen Qiao’s epitaph and therefore was considered as Wen Qiao’s tomb. However, the M10 excavated later than M9 had larger size, so the excavators believed that they had made a mistake, and M10 should have been Wen Qiao’s tomb instead. Referring to the rules of couple joint burials, the general rules of epitaph using in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the arrangement of tombs in the family cemeteries, the chronological features of the tomb types and grave goods, this paper argues that M9 was Wen Qiao’s tomb indeed and the occupant of M10 would be Wen Fangzhi, who was the eldest son of Wen Qiao. The reason why Wen Qiao’s tomb was smaller than his son’s tomb was that the historic conditions were different at the times when they were interred.
