The marble tablets were produced through a multistage process. The text was first reviewed by clerics and then copied by scribes onto marble slabs. Stonemasons chiseled the inscriptions by hand, averaging 10 lines per day. The marble was quarried from Sagyin Hill and transported by river to Mandalay for carving.
