Staff members push the Min Fanglei in a case out of the Customs Supervised Warehouse of the airport of Changsha, capital of central China's Hunan province, June 21, 2014. Lei was a kind of ritual vessel and wine container in the late Shang Dynasty (1600 BC-1046 BC) and early Zhou Dynasty (1046 BC - 771 BC) in China. The Min Fanglei, which got its name Min from the inscriptions on it, is the most exquisite and largest Lei ever unearthed. The body of Min Fanglei has been separated from its lid since its was unearthed in 1919 in Taoyuan County of Hunan. The famous bronze ware, which has been away from its home for almost a century, returned home Saturday after being purchased from an overseas owner in March. (Xinhua/Bai Yu)
