The Chinese oracle consists of inscriptions on bones or tortoise shells first found in Anyang (the capital of the Shang Dynasty) of Henan Province, which is the earliest written language found so far.
These inscriptions are Chinese seal characters. During their long history of development, Chinese characters have evolved into many different script forms, such as seal character, official script, regular script, and running script.
