甲骨文實為中國文字發的先聲，但其所見功能為使用在龜甲獸骨上的占卜文字，尚未發現甲骨文入印的類似文物出土。而近百年來的考古挖掘研究大興，不僅對甲骨文字學各方面的研探討有更多的新發現，另一方面在甲骨文的藝術表現性也有更廣泛的討論。渡海來臺的篆刻家中，對甲骨文研究最深入的，首推董作賓先生。本文擇取董作賓先生甲骨文印章十數枚予以詳細分析，大略可從中了解作者在創作甲骨文作品時，採取的文字型態，工具字典的版本，取資入印的風格風貌，刀法的多種變化…等。一方面可以在這個冷門的小領域中對董先生的創作有更深入的了解，另一方面也可以提供創作者一些資料及靈感。

Although various characters have been used in seal engraving, oracular-inscriptions, the herald of Chinese characters, seem not one of them and mainly functioned as divination words on tortoise shells and bones. However, going along with the great development of excavating cultural relics in the past hundred years, there are more discoveries about the studies of oracular inscriptions and more extensive discussions about the usage of oracular inscriptions in different styles of art. Among the seal engraving artists coming from Mainland China to Taiwan, Mr. Tung Tso-pin made more attempts at using oracular inscriptions in seal engraving. The author tries to analyze more than ten of Mr. Tung’s oracular-inscription-used seals. Through the analysis, there should be more understanding about the artist’s use of different characters and editions of reference books, various forms of seal engraving and multiplicity of his seal engraving skills. Also, it may provide other artists some information and inspiration while engraving their own seals.
