It is particularly worth mentioning that the prominent plaque above the gatehouse can best reflect the status and cultural orientation of the head of household. These door plaques have various fonts, such as Kai, Cao, Xing, Zhuan, Li and so on. And each has its own posture, which is spectacular. The inscription was written according to the identity of the owner (or ancestor). If a person's ancestors or I have been an official or passed the examination for a department title, write down the rank of general, the title of imperial teacher, the title of doctor, the title of riding a guard, the title of observation, the title of tongfeng, the title of university student, the title of Fang Bo (called the minister Fang Bo in Ming and Qing Dynasties), the title of Jinshi and the title of Flower Exploration Academy. Ordinary people just want to live a long life, be kind to others, live in harmony with their families and live a lucky life, so they write the words "Zhuli", "Ren Li" and "Ju 'an" on the door plaque. In order to let people know their surnames, ethnic origins or places of origin, some people carve "Yingchuan's hometown" or "Yingzhuan Shize" on the plaque of the gatehouse to show their surnames Chen, "Jiu Mu's family" to show their surnames Lin, "Jiangxia's family" to show their surnames Huang and "Lai's family" to show their homesickness, and to unite the root-seeking complex.
Most of the inscriptions on Chaoshan dwellings are written by famous artists, such as the "Huang family" in Longdu Town, Chenghai (commonly known as "Mr. Champion") and the champion of Chaozhou literature (the inscription is "Daqin"); The four-character "Zhang's Family Temple" in Lu Guan Village, Anbu Town, Chaoan was written by Weng Wanda, a senior minister of the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty (signed "Give Jinshi a doctor's fortune, and give birth to a book in East Asia Wanda as soon as possible"); The four-character tablet "Xu Ancestral Hall" in Longhu, Chaoan was written by Wu Dianbang, a calligrapher of Chaozhou Confucianism in the Ming Dynasty. These famous inscriptions are very precious, Mo Bao. They have important historical, cultural and artistic values and deserve serious protection.
