Shanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology publishes 359 new epitaph rubbings of the Epitaphs Recently Acquired by Shanxi Provincial Institute of Archaeology, which offers the real and reliable unearthed literatures for us to research into the new ancient epitaphs recently excavated in Shanxi Province. However, it is not easy to interpret some variant forms in the epitaph rubbings. By studying on eight variant forms in the epitaph rubbings, giving examples in characters and illustrations of literature, inquiring character meanings, clearing physical meanings, and summarizing the evolution laws of characters, this paper provides support documents and reference experiences for the research on difficult characters and the history of Chinese characters.
