Divined on Yiyou: Calling Wei to cook336 will be favorable. Used. 1 chou (day 14/60). It was instead to be delayed until an Wu day, the closest one being the fol- lowing day, Wuyin (day 15/60). 334 There are multiple interpretations of bai tun . The first is to read as it is, as the color term white, and as a rebus for and as ancestral form of hem.often occurs in the gift registries of Western Zhou bronze inscriptions, as in: () (Hu gui gai ) black jacket with white hem (Edward Shaughnessy 2001-2002: 73-98); Wang Tao (2007: 548) translates it white textiles. See other instances at Yin Zhou jinwen jicheng yinde 3892: 1106- 1109. A second reading, proposed by Cai Zhemao 2007, is to read as a misspelling of hundred and as the name of a peopleone hundred Tun. I disagree with reading as though it wrote hundred. If did in fact refer to a tribal or ethnic group, then it is compa- rable with bai Qiang White Qiang (HJ 3410), which meant Qiang people with white skin (Qiu Xigui 2012: 1.307). 335 Divinations on HYZ 5, dated Yihai (day 12/60), concern whether or not the protagonists spouse should be dispatched to report to Lady Hao. Perhaps this Jiashen (day 21/60) day divi- nation referred to the same dispatch. 224 | HYZ 222
