The Area of Old Carved Stones in Sa Pa
[I] The area of old carved stones in Sa Pa lies mainly in the Muong Hoa Valley, where there are settlements of ethnic minority people in Sa Pa District, Lao Cai Province. [II] Carved stones here have been discovered since a long time ago. [III] Later, other scientists have come here to study the carved pieces of stone. [IV] Until now, researchers have discovered more than 200 pieces of stone carved with different images, among them are the big ones which have complicated designs.
The most common patterns are images of mountains, hills and fields. In some pieces of stone, we can find images of houses, following the pattern of house on pillars with the form of boat, with curved roof, reminding the image of houses on the Dong Son bronze drums.
Particularly, a number of researchers have raised the hypothesis of traces of 3 kinds of writing system, following the pattern of graphical writing with straight and curved lines. There are writing systems almost similar to the writing systems found on charms of Tay ethnic group and Dao ethnic group, but they are not Tay characters. The discovery of the 3 above kinds of writing system on carved pieces of stone makes more complicated the determination of the author of those works. Maybe those authors belong to many different ethnic minorities and have achieved their works in different times.
There are opinions underlining that those pieces of stone have been carved by the old Viet people, or ethnic groups near to the old Viet people. At present, there remain a number of legends about the "Father piece" and "Mother piece" of stone related to inhabitants of the areas lying at the mountain foot coming here to find new settlements.
