≪殷虛文字丙編≫041∼050譯註

초록

Bingbian(丙編)041/042 records the political punishment of Ci(辝), the relocation of slaves from the Gong(弓) area to the Bei(誖) area, the problem of certain ancestral gods harming the king, the sacrifices to be used for the rites, and the objects of the rites. There is a record of the arrival of Wozu(我族), which is believed to be a political entity that has a friendly relationship with king of Shang dynasty, which can cooperate in political punishment. In Bingbian(丙編)043/044, there is a foregone conclusion about hunting and weather, and here is also a record of certain ancestors harming the king. These examples frequently appear in oracle bone inscriptions, which is presumed to have been suspected of having bought a grudge from the ancestral gods if something bad happened to king‘s identity, and that he chose the object of the ritual to resolve the grudge. Bingbian(丙編)045/046 has a record of divination over the issue of offering ancestral rites to the ancestors of Qiangzu(羌族) brought by Xingfang(興方). The results of the divination were shown to be auspicious. Bingbian(丙編)047/048 recorded the details of the events related to the memorial service, such as offering sacrifices from the Yong(雝) area from Ting(庭) to Jiu(酒) and offering sacrifices to Shangdi(上帝) from Jiechen(介臣). There is also a record of which ancestral deities should be held to solve the king‘s pain. In Bingbian(丙編)049/050, there is a record of who the spirits of certain ancestors were with. Through this, it can be assumed that the circumstances of the ancestral gods played an important role in king, and if in-depth research is conducted, it will be possible to understand the mythological concept of the ancient people of China in more specifically.
