Confucianism -> Liji -> Li Yun -> 24

The ancient kings made use of the stalks and the tortoise-shell;
arranged their sacrifices;
buried their offerings of silk;
recited their words of supplication and benediction;
and made their statutes and measures.
In this way arose the ceremonial usages of the states,
the official departments with their administrators,
each separate business with its own duties,
and the rules of ceremony in their orderly arrangements.
