The Shang people were very advanced, and if you don't think so you need to sit down. Listen here, son. Archaeologists have found oracles, or animal bones and turtle shells with writing carved into them. Aside from being skilled while working with bones and shells, they were very good with jade, ceramics, stone, wood, and bronze. They believed that everything should be preserved, including their thoughts and predictions. The people of the Shang Dynasty were also very religious. They mainly lived off the land, but they eventually became permanent farmers. Because they were so skilled with bronze, they had started what is known as the Bronze Age.
