Division name marker
A chapter heading is the title or label that appears at the beginning of a chapter in a book, identifying and often summarizing the section's content.
Chapter headings help readers navigate and may be purely descriptive (Chapter 3: The Trial) or evocative (Into the Wilderness).
They typically appear in larger or distinctive type.
