Sacrificial offering scene matching Shang culture

Shang dynasty royal tombs contained human sacrificial victims, and bronze vessels were used in ritual contexts. Shang dynasty inscriptions on oracle bones recorded divination, ritual activities, and communications with royal ancestors, nature deities, and powerful spirits, along with other matters like military campaigns, harvests, and legal matters. Sanxingdui bronze culture, contemporaneous with late Shang, also practiced ritual sacrifice as revealed in sacrificial burial pits. Shang dynasty used turtle and ox scapula bones for divination, practices well-documented in archaeological findings.
