Abstract：The thesis compares and studies a large number of tombs of the Chu State and the Qin State in the way of anthropology and history. Based on the analysis, it thinks the origins of the Chu State and the Qin State aren't single. Different ethnicities merged gradually among the long term community life and created their own culture that were greatly different in style. By contrast, Chu culture was more corlorful and splendid, but became showy, weak in the later period; Although Qin State's civilization was lower than Chu's in degree, the Qins kept plain, thrifty and diligent all the time. It was these differences that led to the two states' different historical destiny:the Chu State was defeated by the Qin State, who finally united the whole country.
