The chart shows that in the Tsu Chia and Tsu Keng Periods, sacrifices were made to Ancestor Chia (Yang Chia?) and Ancestor Ping, either Pao Ping or Wai Ping, which is ten or fifteen generations away. Why was their close grandfather Hsiao I removed? What are the rules by which ancestors names were removed?

13. There are three ancestors, Chung Jen, Wu Ting, and Lin Hsin, who are not found in the oracle bone inscriptions. Ch'en Meng-chia suggests that Ch'i ang Ting perhaps is Wu Ting in the Shih-chi. op. cit., p. 423.
