Oracle bones (Chinese: 甲骨; pinyin: jiǎgǔ) are pieces of ox scapula or turtle plastron, which were used for pyromancy – a form of divination – in ancient China, mainly during the late Shang dynasty. ... Intense heat was then applied with a metal rod until the bone or shell cracked due to thermal expansion.
