<P0-S0> a monument to the huge human cost of some of the gigantic construction projects of the early ming dynasty is the yangshan quarry (located some 15–20 km (9–12 mi) east of the walled city and ming xiaoling mausoleum), where a gigantic stele, cut on the orders of the yongle emperor, lies abandoned, just as it was left 600 years ago when it was understood it was impossible to move or complete it. <SEP> <P1-S0> Guangling District () is one of three districts of Yangzhou, Jiangsu province, China. <P1-S1> The district includes the eastern half of Yangzhou's main urban area (including Yangzhou's historic center within the former city wall), and the city's eastern suburbs. <P1-S2> The other half of the city's main urban area is in Hanjiang District. <SEP> <P2-S0> Archaeological discovery shows that "Nanjing Man" lived in more than 500 thousand years ago. <P2-S1> Zun, a kind of wine vessel, was found to exist in Beiyinyangying culture of Nanjing in about 5000 years ago. <P2-S2> In the late period of Shang dynasty, Taibo of Zhou came to Jiangnan and established Wu state, and the first stop is in Nanjing area according to some historians based on discoveries in Taowu and Hushu culture. <P2-S3> According to legend,[which?] <P2-S4> Fuchai, King of the State of Wu, founded a fort named Yecheng (冶城) in today's Nanjing area in 495 BC. <P2-S5> Later in 473 BC, the State of Yue conquered Wu and constructed the fort of Yuecheng (越城) on the outskirts of the present-day Zhonghua Gate. <P2-S6> In 333 BC, after eliminating the State of Yue, the State of Chu built Jinling Yi (金陵邑) in the western part of present-day Nanjing. <P2-S7> It was renamed Moling (秣陵) during reign of Qin Shi Huang. <P2-S8> Nanjing was later the capital city of Danyang Prefecture, and had been the capital city of Yangzhou for about 400 years from late Han to early Tang. <P2-S9> Since then, the city experienced destruction and renewal many times. <P2-S10> [citation needed] The area was successively part of Kuaiji, Zhang and Danyang prefectures in Qin and Han dynasty, and part of Yangzhou region which was established as the nation's 13 supervisory and administrative regions in the 5th year of Yuanfeng in Han dynasty (106 BC). <SEP> <P3-S0> The Information Office of the State Council of the PRC preserves an edict of the Zhengtong Emperor (r. 1435–1449) addressed to the Karmapa in 1445, written after the latter's agent had brought holy relics to the Ming court. <P3-S1> Zhengtong had the following message delivered to the Great Treasure Prince of Dharma, the Karmapa: <SEP> <P4-S0> Norbu writes that the Yongle Emperor, following the tradition of Mongol emperors and their reverence for the Sakya lamas, showed an enormous amount of deference towards Deshin Shekpa. <P4-S1> The Yongle Emperor came out of the palace in Nanjing to greet the Karmapa and did not require him to kowtow like a tributary vassal. <P4-S2> According to Karma Thinley, the emperor gave the Karmapa the place of honor at his left, and on a higher throne than his own. <P4-S3> Rossabi and others describe a similar arrangement made by Kublai Khan and the Sakya Phagpa lama, writing that Kublai would "sit on a lower platform than the Tibetan cleric" when receiving religious instructions from him. <P4-S4> During his travels beginning in 1403, Deshin Shekpa was induced by further exhortations by the Ming court to visit Nanjing by April 10, 1407. <SEP> <P5-S0> in his usurpation of the throne from the jianwen emperor (r. 1398–1402), the yongle emperor was aided by the buddhist monk yao guangxiao, and like his father, the hongwu emperor, the yongle emperor was "well-disposed towards buddhism", claims rossabi. <P5-S1> on march 10, 1403, the yongle emperor invited deshin shekpa, 5th karmapa lama (1384–1415), to his court, even though the fourth karmapa had rejected the invitation of the hongwu emperor. <P5-S2> a tibetan translation in the 16th century preserves the letter of the yongle emperor, which the association for asian studies notes is polite and complimentary towards the karmapa. <P5-S3> the letter of invitation reads,
