The tablet of Duan's alliance with 37 tribes was erected in the fourth year of Kaibao in the Northern Song Dynasty (971 A.D.), which is a relic of Dali kingdom. The inscription records that Duan family (Bai nationality), the leader of Dali state, united with 37 tribes (Yi nationality) to fight against some tribes in eastern Yunnan, made an oath in Shicheng (today's Qujing City) and awarded awards. It is of great value to the study of the official history of Dali state and the ethnic relations of Yunnan in Song Dynasty.
