Is it a dragon bone? Or perhaps a medicinal ingredient?
Is it a picture? Or is it text?
Is it a form of divination? Or maybe a record of events past?
Regardless of one’s answer, the oracle bones found buried deep within the earth are messages from the ancient Yin-Shang dynasty!
Join us for the “Assembling Oracle Bones, Puzzling Out Secrets” jigsaw puzzle workshop organized by the Museum of the IHP, where you will learn about oracle bone script and unravel ancient secrets of the Shang dynasty by putting together puzzles and experiencing how to assemble oracle bones!
