🐉🦆🐘🥃Beyond peacocks, craftsmen also produced many horn cups shaped like different animals — dragons, ducks, elephants and more. Even today, they remain vividly charming and extraordinarily exquisite.✨

🦚Tri-color Glazed Horn Cup in #Peacock Shape. 👑 A small crest sits on its head. Lying supine and turning its head, it holds a #flower in its beak resting on the cup rim. 💐The floral scrolls on the cup body feature well-arranged flowing lines.

【#FantasticBeasts】More than 2,000 years ago, the “Rhyton”, widely used and made across vast areas of #Eurasia, was introduced to China along the Silk Road. It became the beloved “Laitong” among Tang nobles. Legend has it that drinking wine from it could prevent poisoning.🚫💊

#OracleBoneCalendar The number "2" hasn't changed in 3,000 years! 🤯✨ 🥳🥳This is the Oracle Bone Script for “2（Èr ）”(pronounced like "are") 🗣️ 🙋The ancient Chinese kept it super simple: one line for 1, two lines for 2. No overthinking needed! 🤷‍♂️😎 #YinxuMuseum #Thursday

#OracleBoneCalendar The simplest character ever? 🥳This is 一 (Yī), meaning "One". 3,000 years ago, people just drew a single line to count! ➖ It’s basically the original barcode! 🏷️😂 🧐Can you guess how to write "Two" and "Three" in Oracle Bone script? 🙋 #YinxuMuseum #Monday

#OracleBoneCalendar Fish + Bowl = ? 🐟🥣 🥳Let’s play a visual puzzle! 🧩 This ancient character is 鲁 (Lǔ).🥰 It looks like a fish (鱼) sitting on top of a vessel (口). 🤯 Some say it meant a delicious meal, others say it meant "silly" or "rough".😂 #YinxuMuseum #sunday
