The Origin and Origins of Chinese Characters

The Origin of Chinese Characters

From the ancient legend of Cangjie's creation of Chinese characters to the discovery of oracle bone inscriptions more than a hundred years ago, successive generations of Chinese scholars have devoted themselves to unraveling the mystery of the origins of Chinese characters.

About the origin of Chinese characters, there are all sorts of sayings in ancient Chinese literature, such as "knotting rope", "bagua", "drawing", "book deed" and so on. Book Deed", etc., the ancient books are also commonly recorded in the Yellow Emperor historian Cang Jie created the legend of the word. Modern scholars believe that the systematic writing tools can not be created entirely by one person, Cangjie if indeed there is a person, should be the text organizer or promulgator.

Earliest engraved symbols more than 8,000 years ago

In recent decades, China's archaeological community has released a series of unearthed materials older than the Yinxu oracle bones and related to the origin of Chinese characters. These materials mainly refer to the engraved or painted symbols that appeared on top of pottery in the late primitive society and early historical society, and also include a small number of symbols engraved on top of oracle bones, jade and stone tools. It can be said that they ****together provide a new basis for explaining the origin of Chinese characters.

By systematically examining and comparing the inscribed symbols on pottery shards unearthed from more than 100 sites of 19 archaeological cultures throughout China, Wang Yunzhi, a doctoral supervisor at Zhengzhou University, concluded that the earliest inscribed symbols in China appeared at the Jiahu site in Maoyang, Henan Province, more than 8,000 years ago.

As a professional worker, he tries to further organize these original materials through scientific means, such as the comprehensive use of archaeology, paleography, comparative philology, scientific and technological archaeology, and high-tech means, so as to identify some clues about the occurrence and development of Chinese characters before the Shang Dynasty.

However, the situation is not so simple, in addition to the Zhengzhou Mall site, small double bridge site (the site in recent years has found more than 10 cases of early Shang Dynasty Zhu Shu pottery text) of the small amount of material can be directly compared with the order of the Yinxu text, the other symbols before the Shang Dynasty is scattered, each other missing ring more, most of the symbols and with the Shang Dynasty text is not in the right shape. There are also some symbols with heavy regional colors and complex backgrounds.

The Chinese character system was officially formed in the Central Plains

Wang Yunzhi believes that the Chinese character system was officially formed in the Central Plains. Chinese characters are a writing system of independent origin, not dependent on any foreign scripts, but its origin is not single, after a pluralistic and long-term integration, probably at the time of the Xia Era, the ancestors creatively invented a system of characters and symbols used to record language on the basis of the experience of widely absorbing and utilizing the earlier symbols, and the system of Chinese characters matured relatively quickly in that era.

It is reported that, from the point of view of the unearthed writing materials in archaeological excavations, China already had a formal script at least during the Yu Xia period. For example, in recent years, archaeologists once in Shanxi Xiangfen Taosi site of a flat pottery pot, found on the brush Zhu Shu "Wen" character. These symbols belong to the basic form of the early writing system, but it is a pity that such excavated information is still scarce.

Writing first matured during the Shang Dynasty

As far as we know and as far as we can see, there were many types of writing carriers. At that time, in addition to writing with a brush on a simple book, the other main means of writing is engraved on tortoise shell and animal bone, pottery, jade, and pottery cast on bronze. The Shang Dynasty writing materials, with the bones and bronze ritual objects used for divination in Yinxu as the main carriers, are the earliest mature writing found in China so far.

The Shang Dynasty script reflected in the Yinxu period is not only characterized by a large number of characters and rich materials, but also by the fact that the way of making characters has formed its own characteristics and laws. The basic characters of the Shang Dynasty can be divided into four categories: the human body and a part of the human form as the basis for the construction of the word; to the creation of labor and labor objects as the basis for the construction of the word; to take the image of beasts and domestic animals as the basis for the construction of the word; to take the image of natural objects as the basis for the construction of the word. From the cultural connotation of the shape of the examination, these mature earlier cut the object of the character and the first people's social life is quite close, with a strong reality of the characteristics. At the same time, the content depicted in these glyphs involves all aspects of human beings and nature, and is thus characterized by a wide range of sources.
