Oracle Bone Script
The oracle bone script is an ancient script in China and contains the earliest form of Chinese characters. It is the oldest surviving script from the known dynasties. It was unearthed in Yin ruins of Anyang in Henan Province. Amongst more than 100 thousand oracle bones carved with script, there are more than 4000 different pictographs with more than 2800 recognizable characters. Oracle bone scripts record the political and economic condition of the Shang Dynasty (14BC to 11BC). These typically refer to scripts carved on tortoise shell or animal bones, some of which record the divinations of the royal family of the later Shang Dynasty. They typically contain divination questions and outcomes.
