Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Oracle bones were the bones of oxen or turtles which were used to predict the future. Most of the oracle bones discovered come from the Shang Dynasty. The bones were used by the diviners to tell the future by writing questions in the bones then put into a fire until the bone cracked, then diviners would define the direction of the crack. Bones also used for medicinal purposes. Turtle pieces were directed for malaria and other animal bones to treat knife injuries.
