Inscriptions on Qin Gui and the First Enfeoffment of the State of Lu
The word"(門)"in the inscriptions on Qin Gui(禽簋)should be written as"(母攴)"and interpreted as"(卜攴)".This character is also found in the oracle bone inscriptions of the Zhou Dynasty and is equivalent to"(召卜)"and"(兆卜)"as a rising phonetic character that represents the verb form of"兆".The behavior of the Qin"(卜攴)祝"recorded in the inscriptions on the Qin Gui before the Eastern Expedition conforms to the professional identity of the owner of the vessel,"Qin"Dazhu(大祝)."(門)"and the"(日)"in the inscription of Lu Hou Zun(鲁侯尊)are actually a variant of the same character,providing clues to connect the two bronze artifacts.The owner"Qin"in the inscription of the Qin Gui is the Lu Hou in the inscription of Lu Hou Zun,which is also the first monarch of Lu,Bo Qin(伯禽).The inscriptions on the Qin Gui are directly related to the first enfeoffment of the state of Lu,and are related to documents such as"Shangshu Duofang(《尚书·多方》)"and"Shiji Lu Shijia(《史记·鲁世家》)",which can explore information such as the year of the first enfeoffment of the state of Lu.
