The inscriptions on bones or tortoise shells of the Shang Dynasty found in Ruins of the Yin Dynasty are the earliest lettering forms of calligraphy in China which was carved mostly by single graver. The first and last strokes were very powerful and clear. The lean strokes showed skillfulness of ancient people's techniques in lettering with the point of knife. Meanwhile, the rare bronze seal collected by Longjiang County Cultural Relic Administration in Qiqihar, Heilongjiang province, appears to be dark green on the surface, which was carved by double graver in intaglio seal characters. The four sides and corners had been seriously worn away. The shape of the seal is rather vigorous and stylish with clear and legible characters.
