Chinese characters are one of the characters with the longest use time, the widest use space and the largest number of users in the world.

About 6, years ago, in Banpo ruins and other places, there have been more than 5 kinds of carved symbols.
They are neat and standardized, and have the characteristics of simple characters. Scholars think that this may be the bud of Chinese characters. The formation of Chinese characters into systematic characters was the Shang Dynasty in the 16th century BC. Archaeology has confirmed that in the early Shang Dynasty, China civilization had developed to a fairly high level, and one of its main features was the appearance of Oracle Bone Inscriptions.
Oracle Bone Inscriptions is an ancient writing carved on tortoise shells and animal bones. In Shang dynasty, the king had to do divination before doing anything, and Oracle bones were the tools for divination. Oracle bones should be processed before use. First, remove the flesh and blood from the Oracle bones, and then cut and smooth them. Then, use a cutter to drill a notch on the inner side of the nail or the reverse side of the animal bone.
the arrangement of these notches is orderly. A diviner or wizard engraves his name, the date of divination and the questions to be asked on the Oracle bones, and then burns the hollows on the Oracle bones with a fire.
The cracks that appear when these recesses are heated are called "signs". The wizard analyzes the trend of these cracks, obtains the result of divination, and engraves whether the divination is fulfilled on the Oracle bones. After the divination came true, these Oracle bones engraved with Oracle inscriptions became an official file and were preserved.
