Personal statement seal - Shingenshohan
In the Tang Dynasty of China, the four criteria for distinguishing talent in the civil service examination were physical appearance, speech, handwriting, and writing. Those who passed the academic examination at the Ministry of Rites were finally judged by these four criteria by the Ministry of Personnel to determine their suitability as a civil servant and whether they would be appointed.
