Jiaguwen, or oracle bone inscriptions, are an ancient Chinese language named for their inscriptions on tortoise shells and animal bones. They are a primitive form of Chinese characters and the oldest fully-developed characters in China. The oracle bone inscription "bei," meaning "shell," looks like a cowrie shell, a form of currency during the Shang and Zhou dynasties (1600 BC-256 BC), symbolizing wealth and value. Let's see how the ancients defined words. Credit: CCTV9纪录 #UNChineseLanguageDay #

Oracle bone script was an ancestor of modern Chinese characters engraved on oracle bones—animal bones or turtle plastrons used in pyromantic divination—in the late 2nd millennium BC, and is the earliest known form of Chinese writing. The vast majority, amounting to about 150,000 pieces, were found at the Yinxu site located in China’s Henan Province. This is an oracle bone character. Can you guess what it is? | CCTV
