A very small (about a meter long) <i>bixi</i> turtle In the Ming-era section of  the Confucius Cemetery, somewhere NW of the tomb of Confucius. Rather unusually, instead of a rectangular niche on for a tablet, this <i>bixi</i> appears to have on its back a round niche (for a round pillar?). <br> 
While I can't date the <i>bixi</i> itself, a  tombstone (probably not directly related to the <i>bixi</i>) just to the SE of it belongs to a 61st-generation descendant of Confucius, and is dated 36 Wanli (ca. 1608); this tombstone has the inventory number 9-223 written on its west side. Another  tombstone, south of the mini-bixi is dated Hongzi 17 (ca. 1504). Unfortunately, I don't have a good photo of the stele <b>north</b> of the bixi, which most likely <b>is</b> related to it.
