As recently as 1998 AD archaeologists working in Xinjiang Autonomous Region found a wall that ran from Yumen Pass (Jade Gate) near Dunhuang in Gansu to the northern edge of Lop Nur, skirting one of the trajectories of the Silk Road. As with other sections of the Great Wall in the far west including the Yumen Wall remenants, these were earthen ramparts made of rammed yellow sandy soil and jarrah branches. There is little or no doubt that this is part of the Great Wall - most lilkely dating to the Tang Dynasty Era, as it comprises a complete defensive network. This discovery
extended the length of the Great Wall by 500 km, to bring the wall to a length of 7,200 kilometers.
