Помогите сделать короткий пересказ! Очень надо! Главное, не перевод! Shang is the first recorded Chinese dynasty, centred in the North China Plain, for which there is both documentary and archaeological evidence. Shang people believed that many gods and spirits lived in nature. The main god, Shan Ti (quot;the Lord on Highquot;), presided over heaven and the other gods. The power of the gods was awesome. They could cause floods, drought, and plagues. The people tried to influence the gods by calling on the spirits of their own ancestors to act as go-betweens. The Shang believed that if they мейд the right sacrifices, their ancestors would bring them good fortune. Bad fortune was considered a sign of an ancestors displeasure. The worship of royal ancestors was central to the maintenance of the Shang dynasty. The ritual schedule records 29 royal ancestors over a span of 17 generations who were each known as wang (king). Shang priests tried to tell the future. Before taking an important action, a person would ask a priest to consult his or her ancestor. To do this, the priest scratched a question on an ox bone. Then he carved notches in the bone and touched the notches with a heated bronze rod. The heat caused the bone to crack. The priest interpreted the cracks to find an answer to the question. Bones used for telling the fortune in this way are called oracle bones. It was in this period that Chinese writing began to develop, and the symbol for quot;moonquot; was - as it remains - that also for quot;month.quot; Three kinds of characters were used - pictographs, ideograms, and phonograms - and these records are the earliest of writing in China.
