Title corresponds to the Title item. "Responsible persons" include authors, stone carvers, or participants. The "age" is the time of the stone, and if there is an era in the stone carving, it is directly recorded, and if there is no year, the year is written and verified, and the year number is appended to the year of the Common Era. "Location of the Rough Stone" records the geographical location of the stone carvings. The existing conditions of the stone carvings in the "CunYi" bibliography are roughly divided into five situations: intact, grinding, mutilation, chiseling, and non-existence, all of which are the conclusions of the author's personal field investigation in the past ten years. "Specifications" one is the size of the bibliographic stone carvings, which are divided into units; the second is the number of lines of the bibliographic text, if the stone carvings still exist, the number of existing lines shall prevail, and if they do not exist, the previous people will prevail.
