Originally engraved in a stone stele. Showing rank and distribution of Stars, illustrates the traditional Chinese zodiacal system, following the Cheonsang Yeolcha Bunyajido, but also incorporating western zodiacal astrology. Constellations appearing in black reference Gan De, constellations in red reference Shi Shen, open circles reference Wu Xia. Two larger intersecting circles surround the center, represent the ecliptic and Equator. The chart is divided into numerous xiu, surrounding a central nexus. The nexus, represented by a circle at the center of the map, represents Earthly life. The other constellations are divided into zones typically referred to as xiu or mansions. In traditional Chinese celestial cartography there are 28 unequal mansions, presumably associated with lunar movements. This chart consolidates several of the smaller mansions into larger entities, leaving only 24. This chart also illustrates the Milky Way, a feature uncommon to Chinese charts, but not atypical on Korean charts from the 14th century onwards, when it first appeared on the Cheonsang Yeolcha Bunyajido. Around the outside of the map the constellations of the western Zodiac, and the seasons, are named. An exceptionally rare and important discovery.
