Stamp the Brilliance

The Institute of History and Philology, Academia Sinica, has long boasted a rich collection of oracle bones and other valuable artifacts, all of which were unearthed at the Ruins of Yin between 1928 and 1937.

On December 10th, 2014, Chunghwa Post Co., Ltd. handpicked eight objects from this collection and released “Ancient Chinese Artifacts Postage Stamps—The Ruins of Yin”. With the debut of these stamps, this exhibition showcases IHP’s collection from the Ruins of Yin, particularly the eight objects shown on the stamps. And the hope is to “stamp” a time tunnel back to the past which would lead the visitors to envision the Ruins of Yin and the brilliance of the Shang Dynasty. Website:Date:2014-12-10 ~ 2015-07-01.
