How do we know about things that happened thousands of years ago when there were no videos or photos? 1. The earliest written records of Chinese culture are known as oracle bone inscriptions(甲骨文).
Thousands of years ago, people in the Shang dynasty liked to ask fortune tellers(占卜师) about the future. 2. For example, “Where should I go to make money?” or “Will my wife give birth to a boy or a girl?”. The fortune teller would write the question on an oracle bone, heat it up, and then read the cracks(裂纹) on it to find an answer.
Tens of thousands of oracle bones have been found so far. 3. They could also tell us the origins(起源) of Chinese thoughts and where our culture comes from.
What's more, the oracle bones are the key to understanding the growth and development of the written form of the Chinese language. 4. They show us how our ancestors created Chinese writing characters.
So far, we have found about 4,500 characters but we can only understand about 2,000 of them. 5. They are indeed a valuable memory of ancient China.
