Cliff Inscriptions: Messages from the Past Cliff Inscriptions: Messages from the Past Many cliff inscriptions of 1,700 years old have been found in the Three Gorges area on the Yangtze River. Located on steep cliffs above torrential rapids, these carvings are hard to be reached or made rubbings of. That's why they could be reserved until today.

For historians, these inscriptions are messages passed down from remote antiquity, which reflect the changes of time.
