Subject:Inscription on Stone Panel Identification
Posted By: James Mon, Mar 02, 2020 IP: 90.248.206.31

I have a large stone panel with some inscription on it.
Please help with identification of the region/language it is from or any translation of the script.

Thanks!

This is a Chinese Buddhist stone tablet, but unfortunately the bottom part is covered, so it cannot be read completely. That's what I can read about it;
歳囗己卯..... - In the □ Year of Earth-Rabbit (....1699, 1759,1819...)
十五日佚..... - 15th Day of...
丘恵祖比..... - Qu Hui zu......
元吉母人..... - Yuan Ji mother...
造一石碑..... - Made this stone tablet.....
皇帝萬民..... - Emperor and populace....
合識受苦..... - To the memory of the suffering..
□時成佛..... - □ attaining Buddhahood

With regards,
I.Nagy

Thank you so much for your help! It is very useful information to me. At least I now know it is Chinese. I will get some better photos and repost soon and it would be great if you could take another look.
