Most of the oracle bone inscriptions were unearthed in Xiaotun Village, Anyang, Henan Province, and were first discovered in 1898. After 1928, after many excavations, more than 100,000 pieces have been unearthed, mainly engraved divination and divination records.
The total number of words is about 4,600 words, and the number of literate characters is more than 1,700 words. The structure of the text has tended to be combined from a single body, and it basically has the construction rules of the Chinese characters of pictograms, signifiers, meanings, pretenses, transfers, and morphophonics. Before the oracle bone inscription, was there still a script in our country?
Judging from the historical records, "Xunzi", "Lü's Spring and Autumn", "Han Feizi", and "Shiben" all record the legend of Cangjie making characters. The preface to Xu Shen's "Shuowen" combines the statement of the "Biography of the Dictionaries" with the legend of Cangjie, saying: "And the Shenjia clan knotted the rope for the rule and unified its affairs, and the industry was complicated, and the disguise sprouted.
The history of the Yellow Emperor Cangjie saw the traces of birds and beasts' hooves, and knew that the reason could be different from each other. "The era of the Yellow Emperor is about 25600 BC, and the earliest oracle bone inscription is no more than 1300 BC. Judging from the archaeological materials, before the oracle bone inscription, there were many immature writing symbols in China.
In the 30s, some symbols were found in the Longshan culture pottery excavated in Chengziya, Zhangqiu County, Shandong. There are also text symbols on the Xi'an Banpo painted pottery, it is composed of geometric lines depicted, most of them are relatively simple, Guo Moruo said that the symbols on the Banpo painted pottery have the nature of words. Symbols were also found on the pottery of Dawenkou culture in Shandong, and some of the symbols were painted with colors.
These symbols are depicted in prominent places on the surface of the pottery. Some symbols resemble the sun or moon rising from a mountain. In addition, symbols have been found on the pottery of the Majiayao culture in Qinghai, the early Shang Dynasty culture in Zhengzhou and the middle Shang Dynasty culture in Hebei.
Some of these symbols are combined with the pattern, and some are clearly different from the painted pottery ornamentation, although these symbols are simple, sporadic, and have no certain law, but they are the prototype of Chinese characters, and it can be said that the birth of Chinese characters has a history of at least five or six thousand years. Therefore, the oracle bone script can only be said to be the oldest and more mature script in China, and it cannot be said to be the earliest script in China.

Anonymous users2024-02-04Generally speaking, we believe that in ancient times, there were official scripts, regular scripts, line scripts, cursive scripts, and Song scripts. Song style and regular script are relatively upright fonts, and Song style has a difference in horizontal and vertical thickness. The writing of line script and cursive script is a little crazy, and the writing of official script is more special, and ordinary people rarely use it, or even don't know it.

Therefore, the small seal is also known as the Qin seal.
