This seal is the seal of the king in the early Han Dynasty. The name of “King of Jing” in the seal is Liu Jia. He was originally a member of Liu Bang’s family. He was a general of the Han Dynasty at the time of the Chu and Han Dynasties. He fought with Liu Bang, the king of the Han Dynasty, and repeatedly made war achievements. After the Han Dynasty was merged into the world, in order to maintain the world, the sixth year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (201 BC) began to go to a different name of Wang. He took a different name of meritorious minister as his marquis and granted the same name of Wang. Among them, Liu Jia was named King of Jing and 52 cities in the east of Zhenhuai. In the autumn of the eleventh year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (196 BC), King Tsing Bu of Huainan rebelled and attacked the land of King Jing. Liu Jia, King of Jing, defeated Fuling and was killed by the army. So Gao Zu personally attacked and broke the tsingy cloth. In the 12th year (195 BC), Liu Bi, the marquis of Pei, was established as the king of Wu and the hometown of King Jing
In the Qin and Han Dynasties, there is a jade seal of “Liu Jia” on one side and a jade seal of “King Jing’s Seal” on the other side, which are similar to this seal. They are both included in the imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty, and they should all be works by name
