Who knows Seal Script ?

WHO KNOWS SEAL SCRIPT FORMS?

You probably know the left side element is a variant of ren person / man and the top right is weather /rain as they are fairly well known but the bottom element ... the modern kaishu form is different.

One clue the word has been translated as scholar or sage but originally this word probably referred to priests of a neolithic semi-animist sky worship cult that was not Taoist.

More about this in the next post.
