Sixteen Conjoined Divination Inscriptions of the Huang Group

甲骨卜辭綴合促使辭例訊息本身的完整性，亦得以逐漸拼湊出甲骨原樣。本文以卜辭黃組為例，搜羅近來綴合成果共十六則；關於卜辭黃組時代，大抵在帝乙、帝辛時期，此時亦以龜腹甲、胛骨為主要占卜之物，本文十六則綴合中，二例屬龜腹甲，其餘十四例則為胛骨之綴合。且其中五組是在前人的基礎上進行加綴，另外十一組則為本人所新綴，過程中並懷疑前人的一則誤綴，文內將此誤綴的兩版，再重新與其他二版進行綴合。Conjunction of divination inscriptions on oracle bones not only contributes to the completeness of inscription decipherment but also helps to restore oracle bones to their original appearances. The inscriptions of the Huang Group approximately date from the reign of Di Yi and Di Xin [Emperors Yi and Xin], when tortoise plastrons and animals’ scapulae are the main divination tools. This article collects sixteen recently conjoined divination inscriptions of the Huang Group; two of them are incised on tortoise plastrons and the other fourteen on animals’ scapulae. Five of them are the author’s additions to previous scholarly works, while the other eleven are newly conjoined by the author. During the process of conjoining, the author discovers that two divination inscriptions have mistakenly been pieced together by previous scholars and therefore re-conjoins them with other two inscriptions
