甲骨文。 Oracle bone scripts are the incised ancient Chinese characters found on oracle bones, which were animal bones or turtle shells used in divination in Bronze Age China.

Very few oracle bone writings date to the beginning of the subsequent Zhou dynasty.

the chinese characters are written in different languages

fuckyeshuaxia: 甲骨文，often translated as Oracle Bone Script, is the oldest known ancestor of modern Chinese script* (which comes in two forms, simplified and traditional, which I’ll talk about some other time). Their name comes from the fact that they are often found cut into the animal bones that were used in divining the future. Most record the pyromancy of the royal house of Shang Dynasty. They fell into disuse during the Zhou Dynasty, when divining with the milfoil flower became more pop...

The Shang made many contributions to Chinese civilization, but one in particular define the dynasty: the invention of writing. The oracle bone inscriptions are the oldest known form of Chinese writing. By comparing and equating the inscriptions to modern Chinese characters, scholars have shown that the Shang had already developed all the principles of the modern writing system used today. In fact, Chinese writing has undergone relatively few changes since it was first developed 3,500 years a...

A Chinese scholar and government official named Wang Yirong is credited with realizing that some of these bones were inscribed with ancient writing and thus had historical significance. Today, they are called “oracle bones” and they constitute the best window available into the history, language and culture of ancient China.
