The Research On Variation Of Stroke Form Of Bamboo Slips Of Qin Dynasty Catacombs In Shuihudi

The written form in bamboo slips of Qin Dynasty catacombs in Shuihudi is one of the most important milepost in the process of scribe change, it stretches over the end of the Warring States period and the period of Qin Shihuang, which is a true representation of the actual writing situation at the time.
