DescriptionCMOC Treasures of Ancient China exhibit - stone slab with twelve small seal characters.jpg
English: Stone slab with twelve Qin seal characters.
  • Qin Dynasty (221 - 206 B.C.)

The 12 characters on this slab of floor brick affirm that it is an auspicious moment for the——First Emperor——to ascend the "throne," as the country is united. And no men will be, "dying along the road."

Small seal scripts were standardized by, "the First Emperor of China after he gained control of the country." And evolved from the larger seal scripts of previous dynasties.

The text on it is "海内皆臣,歲登成熟,道毋飢人".
