Structural features:

The early monument in China is a whole stone. The inscription on it is a rectangular section at the bottom, which is used to engrave the inscription as a tablet surface. Some monuments are thicker, and they can also be engraved on both sides, near the first line of the inscription.

The stele in Han Dynasty was relatively short, and it became higher and bigger after Wei and Jin Dynasties. In the Tang Dynasty, the production became more and more elaborate. The tablet has changed from one stone to two, and the lower one is called the tablet body, which is mainly used to write inscriptions. The upper part is called a tablet computer. The front of the monument is engraved with exquisite flowers and characters, and its width and thickness are larger than that of the monument. The main function is to show tall and gorgeous, but also to protect historical sites. Early monuments have no bases and are easy to sink.
