What is the definition of bronze inscription in Oracle Bone Inscriptions?

Oracle Bone Inscriptions is the earliest and most complete ancient script discovered by China. Oracle Bone Inscriptions mainly refers to the Oracle Bone Inscriptions in Yin Ruins, also known as "Yin Ruins Characters" and "Yin Qi", which were written on the bones of tortoise shells and beasts in the Shang Dynasty. Oracle Bone Inscriptions inherited Wen Tao's method of word formation in the late Shang Dynasty in China (14 ~ 1 1 century).

The bronze inscriptions on Yin and Zhou bronzes are also called Zhong Dingwen. Shang and Zhou Dynasties were the Bronze Age, with the tripod as the representative of ritual vessels and the bell as the representative of musical instruments. "Zhong Ding" was synonymous with bronzes. Because copper was also called gold before the Zhou Dynasty, the inscriptions on bronzes were called "inscriptions on bronzes" or "auspicious words". Because this bronze ware has the largest number of words in Zhong Ding, it used to be called "Zhong Dingwen".
