What did the "decree" from more than 2,000 years ago look like?
Come to the Xinjiang Hotan Museum and listen to the curator's introduction to the "Holy Edict" that is more than 2,000 years old but still well-preserved.
Among a group of Kaluwen wooden slips in the Hotan Museum, there is a wedge-shaped wooden slip with a unique shape. According to Zhang Huajie, the curator of the museum, this cultural relic is indeed different. It was the edict or the supreme instruction of a king in the Hotan area at that time, so it is different from the general one. Slips are not the same.
This wedge-shaped Kaluwen wooden tablet was unearthed in large quantities at the Niya site.
Curator Zhang Huajie also introduced that the use of wooden slips has its own regulations, and different levels and identities should use corresponding forms of wooden slips.
