Shi Guwen was a stone carving figure in the pre-Qin period, so he got his name because of his drum shape. Found in the early Tang Dynasty, there are ten * * * pieces, about three feet high and two feet in diameter, each engraved with a four-character poem of Dazhuan, with ten * * * pieces, accounting for 718 words. The content was originally considered as a narrative of the hunting scene of the king of Qin, so it was also called "hunting". After Zheng Qiao's Preface to the Sound of the Stone Drum in the Song Dynasty, the theory of "Stone Drum and Qinshi" became popular. In the late Qing Dynasty, Qin Wengong broke the stone drum, and in the Republic of China, Qin Mugong broke Ma Heng.
Guo Moruo is regarded as something from the Qin Xianggong era, while Liu Xing, Liu Mu and other modern people have verified that Shigu is a work from the Qin Shihuang era. There are many broken words carved on the stone drum. Ouyang Xiu recorded 465 words in the Northern Song Dynasty. The Collection of Fan Tianyi Pavilion in Ming Dynasty has only 462 words. Today, the "Majian" drum has no words. The original stone is now hidden in the Shigu Hall of the Palace Museum.
Big seal script, word name, broadly refers to the characters before Xiao seal script, including inscriptions on bronze (or "Zhong Dingwen") and inscriptions on bronze (the complexity of inscriptions on bronze). Contemporary Chinese character experts estimate that there should be Oracle Bone Inscriptions in the Qin Dynasty, so it is also included. The narrow sense of Da Zhuan refers to Shi Guwen.
Dazhuan is a widely used font in the late Western Zhou Dynasty, and it is said that it was created by Boyi in Xia Dynasty. Dazhuan also refers to Shi Guwen, a kind of stone carving with writing style and traces, which is named after its writing in Shizhuanpian. Shi Guwen, named after being carved on the stone drum, is the earliest stone inscription and the ancestor of stone carving.
