During the Qing Dynasty (1644–1911), scholar Chen Jieqi (1813–1884) gathered over 10,000 ancient seals in his residence, earning it the name Wanyin (means 10,000 seals) Tower. Announced at this year's Chen Jieqi Epigraphy Culture Week in Weifang, Shandong province, a database is being built to preserve inscriptions across China. The stones are still speaking their history.

To hear them, tune in to AI Broadcast: Weifang Weekly Insights with virtual anchor Douglas, as he unfolds a history written in stone.
