What is the most scientific way for future generations to understand the historical facts before Shang Dynasty?

The recorded history is mainly Oracle Bone Inscriptions in Shang Dynasty, which comes from the written records of Oracle Bone Inscriptions and the six word-making methods of China. There are many records about divination and war in ancient Oracle Bone Inscriptions, and there are many ancient legends in these divination records, which can extend to some history in the early Shang Dynasty.

In addition, some historical conditions of primitive society in China before Shang Dynasty are mainly based on the analysis of historical sites after archaeological excavations, especially the carbon 12 and carbon 14 analysis of human fossils (sorry, I don't know how to survey them), so as to characterize the social conditions before Shang Dynasty. For example, the Peking man and the site were discovered by Swedish geologist An Tesheng and Austrian paleontologist Danschi, and the excavation began at 1927.

There are some recorded in China's ancient books, not Shangshu. Of course, there are unofficial history, knotting notes and folk stories mentioned by colleagues, but these have little influence on today's historical research because of their age.

In fact, there are many differences about the history before Shang Dynasty, that is, what we usually call the historical situation of primitive society, and many opinions are inconclusive. In the process of history teaching, most textbooks and teachers adopt a common view, which is accepted by most people. Actually, there are other views. On the history of primitive society, the views of China historians and world historians are quite different in many places, so they were not introduced to you in high school. However, in the university, in fact, all kinds of views can be seen in the library.

Therefore, if you are a high school student, it is enough to learn the historical knowledge that you can come into contact with now. Work hard and cheer up.
