从卡内基博物馆所藏甲骨实物看早期甲骨的作伪问题

Research on Counterfeited Early Oracle Bones from Collections of the Carnegie Museum

卡内基博物馆所藏甲骨是著名的库方二氏藏品中的一部分。我们对其馆藏甲骨实物中的伪片做了细致观察,发现作伪水平低下,刻写拙劣,文辞不通;并对馆藏甲骨中的伪片数量进行考察,对真伪相杂的甲骨一一辨析。通过对伪片甲骨刻辞的分析,总结出此伪刻刻手的特征,并由此特征找到其他甲骨著录中此刻手所刻伪片。

The oracle bone collections in the Carnegie Museum are part of the famous Couling-Chalfant collections. Through close observation of the counterfeit oracle bones collected in the museum, it is found that those pieces were inferiorly counterfeited with clumsy inscriptions and poor grammar. The number of counterfeit oracles bones in the museum was counted, and pieces with fake parts were identified. Through analysis of the inscriptions on the counterfeit oracle bones, the characteristics of the engraver were distinguished, thus more counterfeit pieces by the same person were found out.
