The Eight Goods System is the system of sacrificial music for the emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty.From the archaeological objects and Oracle Bones Oracle inscriptions,it is not known whether there was a mature music and dance form in the Yin and Shang Dynasties.But there have been some similar artistic forms,such as dance,instrumental performance,song and poetry,which are similar to those of the Western Zhou Dynasty.Among them,dancing features include dancing with relatives,feathering with feathers,dancing with rank and rank,dancing with constraints,and so on.Instruments include bells,chimes,drums,sers,etc.The content of the song in music and dance is Shang Song.According to the textual research on the relationship between the sacrificial culture of Yin and Zhou Dynasties,we can see that the embryonic form of the "Eight Goods System" in the Western Zhou Dynasty can be seen in the Yin and Shang Dynasties.In the Western Zhou Dynasty,such structural elements as music and dance performances,performers,performance occasions,etc.Music and dance performances include dance,instrumental performance and songs.Zhou Tianzi,princes,courtiers,musicians and so on all participated in the performance of music and dance.In addition,in many types of sacrifice,the significance of the sacrifice of the Zongmiao is the most significant.The Zongmiao is the most important place for music and dance performance,which shows the nature of the unity of political sacrifice and sacrifice.In the process of sacrificial rites,it participated in the construction of political order in the Western Zhou Dynasty from three aspects: building ancestor identification,regulating human relations order and displaying the authority of the emperor.The "Eight Goods System" of the Western Zhou Dynasty provided a reliable blueprint for the establishment of the system of sacrificial music for later generations,and influenced the construction of political order in successive dynasties.
