Large or Great Seal
Script
大篆
In broad terms, these scripts include the 甲骨文 oracle bone inscriptions
and the 金文 bronze inscriptions which were largely
used before the 秦朝 Qin Dynasty.
Beginning 221 BCE, the 大篆 Great / Large Seal scripts
were unified and became the 小篆 Small Seal Script (also
known as the 秦篆 Qin Seal Script). The person
credited for the integration is 丞相李斯 Prime
Minister Li Si. The unification was part of his
implementation of the 书同文,车同轨 "same script for
books and the same track for carts" policy.
