Is there a date engraved on the tombstone?

Tombstones are traditional cultures, and modern tombstones are limited in size, so write as little as possible. It is necessary for family members to discuss how to carve tombstones from generation to generation, which will make tombstones less messy. Children and grandchildren usually write, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, great-grandson and great-grandson look at the size of the tombstone. Common ones are: "filial piety, so-and-so, so-and-so, Sun so-and-so, respect."

There are three main types of tombstone erectors:

One is about the direct descendants of the Yin master, and the descendants or relatives will erect a monument.

Second, if the relevant figures have no descendants and have made extraordinary achievements, the organization will set up a monument.

The third is to erect a monument by relatives.

Generally, a cemetery is the same cave for husband and wife, with the names of two tomb owners written on it. Only the husband's name is written in the old grave, and the wife only writes the surname, and most of them are not written in the middle, only on the left; In modern graves, husband and wife are juxtaposed on tombstones, with men on the right and women on the left.

Generally, it is written like this: "A loving father and a man, a family's life domain (or tomb) is matched with morality" 12 is arranged in two columns, and the word "life domain" must be twice as big as other words, and it is in the middle of the left and right columns.
