兒氏家譜刻辭綜述及其確為真品的證據 陳光宇（KuangYuChen） 羅格斯大學（RutgersUniversity,NJ） 摘要：兒氏家譜刻辭（《庫》1506/《英藏》2674）的真偽之辯是甲骨學界久懸未解的公案。本文1506骨版為實驗組54個刻字分別放大照相及觀察外，更以真刻與偽刻並存於同一牛肩胛骨版之《庫》1619/《英藏》2512骨版作為實驗之對照組也同時進行顯微鏡觀察照相。筆者發現就骨版裂1619版上真刻的全版分佈幾乎完全相同，而與同版的偽刻則完全1506及《庫》1619二片牛肩胛骨版的分析數據，筆者以為兒氏家譜刻辭之確為真品Abstract: The controversy about the authenticity of the Er shi Genealogical Inscriptions engraved on BL1506/YC2674 has lasted for more than a century. Here, we critically review all the issues raised by the two schools of scholars, one for authentic, and the other for forgery. We divided these issues into three categories: (i) styles and format, (ii) epigraphy and orthography, and (iii) other OBI inscriptions related to genealogy or “naming” divination. As physical characteristics detected under microscope offer the most objective evidence, the author also repeated the experiment of Sarah Allan, using BL1506 as the experimental sample, and BL1619, a scapula containing both authentic (dated 1101 BCE) and faked inscriptions, as control. Our findings, in general, support the criteria proposed by Allan in distinguishing authentic inscriptions from faked ones. In addition, we found that there are four kinds of fissures associated with engravings that can be identified on the bone surface of BL1619: three of them, A, B and C type, are clearly generated due to the prior presence of the engraving, whereas the fourth one, termed Y type fissure, appears to be independent of the engraving, but causes ragged cracking if the stroke was engraved through or close to the fissure. The distribution of these four types of fissures on the BL1506 is almost identical to that of the authentic inscriptions on BL1619, but completely different from that of 2 the fake inscriptions. Our results, taken together with the work of Yu Xinwu and Sarah Allan, provide unambiguous evidence supporting the authenticity of the BL1506 genealogy inscriptions. Possible significance of the genealogy inscriptions was also discussed. 1．綜述1.1《庫
