Ornamentation: Ornamentation and shape are the same.

Treatise:

The name "Pigrone" was given by "expert", it has been conventional, and no one wants to change the name for it. ... You don't look like a "dragon" no matter how you look at it. My understanding is that "pig" was an important means of production and livelihood at that time, and its importance can be known from the word "home". ... The abstract carving of the "pig" into a circle close to the "jade" should be a "sublimation" of a cultural phenomenon, ... Here is the cow god kneeling on the ground, respectfully offering treasures to the "heavens", looking forward to the heavens blessing the people (tribes)... In this state, it is reasonable to call it "pig treasure" and "pig wealth". ... The "religion", "etiquette" and "etiquette" of Hongshan culture can also be seen.
