There is a round hole of the same size from the top to the bottom of the device, which may be intended to advertise the form of worship of the heavens and the earth. A C-shaped dragon pattern, with the edge of the shovel to the sense of bas-relief with hidden convexity, this is the commonly used carving method in ancient times;
The other lower back is also carved with the same C-shaped dragon pattern, which is a common dragon pattern of Hongshan culture. There are small rectangular traces on both sides of the device. It is an ignorant antique merchant used as a sticker for the number. When the sticker is torn off, because of the movement of the molecules, a certain part of the ancient surface molecules will go into the sticker to form this trace.
