Oracle Bone Inscriptions's relevance

In the spring of 2005, Professor Fengjun Liu found an unforgettable piece in the hands of Jinan collectors. He determined that the carving on it was "the early words of China"; In July, 2007, Liu Jiaoshou discovered a batch of human remains in Changle County. He also decided that the above description was "China's early script", which was originally called "Dongyi script" and later called "Changle Oracle Bone Inscriptions". From June 5438 to February 2008, the first bone carving document "Changle Bone Carving" edited by Liu Jiaoshou came out. After the spring of 2009, Professor Fengjun Liu discovered Shouguang Bone Carvings, Longshan Bone Carvings, Guanzhong Bone Carvings and Chifeng Bone Carvings one after another, and named them "Bone Carvings", and began to compile "Bone Carvings Discovery and Research Series".

Fengjun Liu corrected the contents of Changle Bone Carving in the examination paper of No.1 Middle School of Tieyi in Xi City.

A few days ago, Xi An Tie No.1 Middle School sent an official letter to Fengjun Liu, director of the Institute of Fine Arts and Archaeology of Shandong University, who discovered and named Oracle Bone Inscriptions, saying that the inaccurate content related to the modern Chinese reading paper Changle Oracle Bone Inscriptions had been deleted from the school website.

Professor Fengjun Liu introduced Oracle Bone Inscriptions of Xi 'an No.1 Middle School in detail.

In the spring of 2005, Fengjun Liu found a small bone carved on it in the hands of Jinan cultural relics lovers. At that time, he decided: "This is a prehistoric bone with words engraved on it. This is a very important cultural relic and an early writing of China. " In July, 2007, he discovered and identified a number of unforgettable collections in Changle County. At that time, Fengjun Liu also admitted that they were early scripts, and publicly announced in time that they were "relics of the Longshan culture period in Shandong Province, about 4000-4500 years ago, belonging to Dongyi scripts, which were early hieroglyphics in China." Weifang Daily Changle News on July 30, 2007 and Qilu Evening News on July 13, 2008 reported Fengjun Liu's discovery and appraisal in time.

After a year of hard work, Fengjun Liu further affirmed his findings and conclusions. On July 30th, 2008, the Institute of Fine Arts and Archaeology of Shandong University, with the assistance of Changle CPPCC, invited five experts from Beijing and Shandong to inspect and discuss some Oracle Bone Inscriptions collected by Changle, and the experts at the meeting unanimously agreed with Fengjun Liu. Popular Daily, Guangming Daily and many other media reported on this specific process in detail. On September 5, 2008, Popular Daily published a long article "Decoding Changle's Unforgettable Memories" by reporter Bian, which said: "The initiator of this expert seminar is these unforgettable discoverers and appraisers. In his view, Oracle Bone Inscriptions is an earlier primitive script than Anyang Oracle Bone Inscriptions. At the seminar, after a long period of careful observation and in-depth discussion, this appraisal opinion was unanimously recognized by experts. This means that the history of the origin of China characters may be rewritten from now on. " On June 5438+February 65438+February 2008, Guangming Daily published reporter Zhao's long article "What information was decoded from Changle Oracle Bone Inscriptions", which said: "As the discoverer and appraiser of Changle Oracle Bone Inscriptions, we are trying our best to decipher and decipher these cultural relics." "This means that the appearance of ancient Chinese characters in China will be greatly advanced, and even the known history of the development of China characters may change." On June 5438+February, 2008, Fengjun Liu edited and published Changle Bone Carvings. On June 5438+February 9 of the same year, Xinhua Shandong Channel published the article "The Foundation Work of Studying Early Characters", saying: Changle Bone Carvings, edited by Professor Fengjun Liu, the discoverer and appraiser of Changle Bone Carvings and director of the Institute of Fine Arts and Archaeology of Shandong University, is a collection of philology, archaeology and art. "

Through extensive archaeological investigation and comprehensive research, Fengjun Liu further concluded that Oracle Bone Inscriptions was an early script used in the Yellow River Basin, Liaohe River Basin and Huaihe River Basin from 3300 to 4600 years ago. In the second half of 2009, Fengjun Liu named this early handwriting "Bone Carving" on the basis of "Changle Bone Carving". On February 24th, 20 10, China Cultural Relics newspaper published Fengjun Liu's article "Pre-life and Post-life of Bone Carving Discovery and Research Series", which gave a detailed explanation. The name "Gu Ming" is becoming more and more scientific in the process of use.

Thanks to the website of Lieutenant Colonel Xi An Tieyi for deleting the inscription of Changle Bone.

In the past two years, there have been many Chinese test questions "Changle Bone Carving" on the Internet, some of which are untrue. In order to further study and correctly publicize Oracle Bone Inscriptions, we contacted Xi 'an No.1 Middle School, which used the test earlier, for the first time in August, 20 12. In his letter to the headmaster of your school, Director Fengjun Liu explained in detail that the content was untrue, and "Please delete this content on the Internet (the test question' Changle Bone Carving'), or make changes, please use the name' Bone Carving'." On the 9th of this year 1 month, Director Fengjun Liu received an official letter from Xi 'an No.1 Middle School, which said, "After receiving your letter, the relevant teachers have consulted relevant information on the Internet and gained some new knowledge about Oracle Bone Inscriptions." "Respect your opinion, the website of our school has deleted the relevant content ('Changle Bone Carving', 20 1 1 Modern Chinese Reading Test Paper for Senior Three Basic Examination)." We are very touched, thank you!

We ask Xi 'an Tie No.1 Middle School to "delete this content on the Internet (the test question' Changle Bone Carving') or make changes, please use the name' Bone Carving'." The reasons are mainly summarized as follows:

1.In the spring of 2005, Fengjun Liu found a small bone carved on it in the hands of cultural relics lovers in Jinan. In 2007, he discovered and identified a number of unforgettable collections in Changle County. At that time, Fengjun Liu also recognized it in time and publicly announced that it was a relic of the Longshan culture period in Shandong Province. It belonged to Dongyi script about 4000-4500 years ago and was an early hieroglyph of China. Weifang Daily Changle News on July 30th, 2007 and Qilu Evening News on July 3rd, 2008 reported the identification and discovery of Fengjun Liu in time. Changle Bone Inscription does not mention the process of Fengjun Liu's identification and discovery of bone inscriptions before July 30, 2008, which is inconsistent with historical facts.

On July 30th, 2008, the Institute of Fine Arts and Archaeology of Shandong University, with the assistance of Changle CPPCC, invited five experts from Beijing and Shandong to observe and discuss some Oracle Bone Inscriptions collected by Changle, and the experts at the meeting unanimously agreed with Fengjun Liu. On September 5th, 2008, Popular Daily and the article Fengjun Liu: Interpreting Changle Oracle Bone Inscriptions reported this specific process in detail. In 2008, Fengjun Liu published The Bone Carving of Changle, and many media further publicly reported Fengjun Liu's findings and conclusions. Therefore, the Chinese test "Changle Bone Carving" in the senior high school entrance examination said that Wang Yuxin, a researcher at the China Academy of Social Sciences, "recognized that these animal bones had traces of knife carving, and the main pen and auxiliary pen were obvious, which were artificially portrayed." This is also not in line with historical facts. In fact, Fengjun Liu realized that this was an early script as early as 2005.

After the summer of 2009, Wang Yuxin publicly opposed Fengjun Liu's appraisal of Oracle Bone Inscriptions. 2010101October 28th, in Singapore. It is said that the inscription on Changle's bone is "Carve some flowers on the bone, which is definitely not words!" (See "Ancient Chinese Characters Expert: Shandong Changle Bone Inscription is Non-writing")

Second, through extensive archaeological investigation and comprehensive research, Fengjun Liu further concluded that Oracle Bone Inscriptions was used in the Yellow River Basin, Liaohe River Basin and Huaihe River Basin from 3300 to 4600 years ago. It is the main source of Oracle Bone Inscriptions. It fully proves that China is one of the earliest ancient civilizations in the world, and there is no doubt about the 5,000-year-old Chinese civilization. In the second half of 2009, Fengjun Liu named this early handwriting "Bone Inscription" on the basis of "Changle Bone Inscription". On February 24th, 20 10, China Cultural Relics newspaper published Fengjun Liu's "Previous and Later Life of Bone Carving Discovery and Research Series", which was interpreted in detail in this paper. So I hope to use a more scientific name "Gu Ming" in the future.

Third, the senior three Chinese test "Changle Bone Carving" mainly comes from the report of Xinhua News Agency on June 24, 2008: "Changle Bone Carving predates Oracle Bone Inscriptions and Major Archaeological Discovery Unearthed in Shandong", and some of the contents are untrue. After the report was published, Fengjun Liu once commented on the untrue contents to the Shandong Branch of Xinhua News Agency, and they sincerely realized that some contents were untrue. On February 9, 2008, 65438, Xinhua News Agency issued "Basic Work of Studying Early Characters" 201February 4, Xinhua News Agency reporter Liu published "Xinhua News Agency Interview with Professor: Oracle Bone Inscriptions is the Main Source of Oracle Bone Inscriptions", giving scientific comments on Oracle Bone Inscriptions's discovery and research. He spoke highly of Fengjun Liu. "He not only discovered Oracle bones, but also explained some related theoretical studies of Oracle bones clearly, which provided a systematic theoretical guiding ideology for the future study of Oracle bones.

On Oracle Bone Inscriptions's "Code" of Dongyi Cultural Scholars

Archaeologists in China discovered hundreds of mysterious pictures and characters carved on 130 animal bones in eastern Shandong a few years ago, some of which have been "cracked". Ding Zaixian, a cultural scholar in Dongyi, Shandong Province, found out the modern Chinese characters corresponding to more than 1 10 pictures and texts through research and comparison.

Ding Zaixian analyzed all the patterns on animal bones according to the evolution law of Chinese characters and combined with historical data, and has solved more than 1 10 Chinese characters, including Yan, Huang, Qi, Hao and Yu. And according to Oracle Bone Inscriptions, Oracle Bone Inscriptions, inscriptions on bronze, seal script and official documents.

Folk collectors in Changle county, Shandong province, when collecting pottery specimens at Yuanjiazhuang ancient site in Changle county, saw that local farmers who were digging abandoned many sub-fossil ancient animal bones. After cleaning, you can see that there are many pattern symbols with obvious traces in the bone cavity and on the head of the bone socket. Similar animal bones have been found in other parts of China before.

In 2008, archaeologists in Jinglu held a special discussion on these symbols, and the experts at the meeting agreed that the "Oracle Bone Inscriptions" discovered and named by Fengjun Liu should be the identification of China's early characters.

These graphic symbols belong to intaglio lines with tortuous strokes, mostly arc pens and arc pens. Academician Xue Qunji, former vice chairman of the International Friction Society, believes that "the formation of bone carving patterns should be artificial."

Professor Fengjun Liu, director of the Institute of Fine Arts and Archaeology of Shandong University and vice president of Shandong Literature, History, Calligraphy and Painting Research Association, first identified Oracle Bone Inscriptions as an early script. He said that Oracle Bone Inscriptions is concentrated in Changle, Shouguang, Huantai, Zhangqiu, Zouping, Zibo, Qingzhou and Zhucheng in Shandong, and there are also many discoveries in Chifeng and Guanzhong in Inner Mongolia.

In order to determine the age of animal bones, the Carbon Fourteen Laboratory of the Institute of Archaeology of China Academy of Sciences recently conducted a carbon 14-year test on the "Shougu 60" unearthed in the ash pit in the late Longshan culture (belonging to the late bone inscription) at Shouguang Shengcheng Site. The report shows that the age of "Shougu 60" was 3,700 years ago.

"At present, some interested experts in China have begun to interpret this mysterious graphic text, but the interpretation methods are different. The mainstream interpretation method is literal translation, which means looking at graphics and words. " Fengjun Liu said.

Ding Zaixian, who has a cultural foundation in Dongyi, found that Chinese characters not only created pictographs according to the images of animals, birds and objects, but also the images of Dongyi's cultural ancestors, such as Yan, Huang, Guo, Yan, Hao, Xu, Yao, Shun, Peng and Dayu, all became prototypes of Chinese characters, and even found some semi-pictographs.

According to historical records, ancient humans living in Shandong and its nearby land were first called Dongyi people. Dongyi culture has experienced northern new culture, Dawenkou culture, Longshan culture and Yueshi culture since 8300 years ago after the post-Li Wenhua era.

Ding Zaixian took the photos of bone mortar in "Keeping the Ancient 2" as an example, saying that he had found photos of Yanhuang Alliance, Shihao of Zhuan Xu, the religion of Zhuan Xu and the Hou of Cang Xie. , and many human ancestors are carved on the same mortar. On the rest of the bones, he also explained the birds headed by the phoenix, celebrations, ancestor worship in Mao Peng, the prosperity of the East, the cultivation of the Yellow Emperor, divination notes, battlefields, galloping of people and animals, hunting, spring outing and other pictures.

He believes that "calligraphy and painting are of the same origin", and China's calligraphy and painting are closely related, and their emergence and development complement each other. China's Chinese characters probably evolved from pictures.

Ding Zaixian said that these research results will be included in his book "Dongyi Culture and Shandong-An Overview of Bone Carvings". Yao Ju's expression is easy to understand, and shows the evolution process of characters from right to left in the form of text interpretation and pictures, that is, primitive bone carving, bone carving, Oracle Bone Inscriptions, bronze inscriptions, seal script and official script.

However, for the appraisal of research results, Ding Zaixian believes that people should first accept the evaluation of the masses. "People commonly used. If even ordinary readers can't understand it, it certainly doesn't make much sense even if the experts at the meeting sign it. "

Up to now, the earliest and relatively complete writing found by China is Oracle Bone Inscriptions, a Yin Ruins used by the Shang royal family for divination, which was unearthed in Anyang, Henan. This discovery puts China on a par with ancient Egypt, Babylon and ancient India, which used papyrus, clay tablets and slates as their writing carriers.

During the period of 265438+ 10 in the 20th century, a series of unearthed materials related to the origin of Chinese characters were found in various parts of China, including symbols appearing in pottery carving or painting in the late primitive society and early historical society, and a few symbols engraved on Oracle Bone Inscriptions, jade and stone tools. Among them, Oracle Bone Inscriptions should be the most mature and standardized writing at that time.

Fengjun Liu affirmed and encouraged scholars such as Ding Zaixian to decipher Oracle Bone Inscriptions, but he said that because it was a newly discovered thing, there was no experience to learn from, and Oracle Bone Inscriptions had similar experience in discovering and deciphering Oracle Bone Inscriptions.

The reporter learned from Shandong Provincial Tourism Bureau that Shandong Provincial Tourism Bureau held a press conference, and Wang Chunsheng, director of the Marketing Department of Shandong Provincial Tourism Bureau, presided over the press conference, and informed the official establishment of the key project of "Research and Development and Utilization of Dongyi Bone Carvings". Ding Zaixian, the project leader and full-time vice president of Shandong Tourism Industry Association, was interviewed by the media, and then wrote the document method of bone carving in "Chinese Dream", expressing a tourist's Chinese dream.

. In February 20 12, the members of this key research group have completed the scientific research and demonstration task of "Dongyi Culture and Shandong Oracle Bone Inscriptions" (published by China Literature and History Publishing House in February 20 12) with more than 900,000 words. The main point of this monograph is: Dongyi culture is the source of Chinese culture, and Dongyi Oracle Bone Inscriptions is the source of Chinese characters.

According to Ding Zaixian, the inscriptions on the bones of Dongyi refer to the symbols carved on animal bones-hieroglyphics or graphic characters, which have both meanings and meanings, and were found in Shandong Province. According to the research of Professor Fengjun Liu of Shandong University, the discoverer and naming of Oracle Bone Inscriptions in Dongyi, the Oracle Bone Inscriptions is 4600 ~ 3300 years ago, which is 1300 years earlier than Oracle Bone Inscriptions, that is, 3300 ~ 3 100 years ago.
