摘要
远古巫史为了记言记事的客观需要,将图像化之后的岩画或简化、转变成象形符号,或抽象化成线性符号,显示出了他们天才的想象和高超的职业本能。象形符号与线性符号都在远古巫史的施术图画中产生,同时也在远古巫史的分化中分道扬镳,随之,象形符号演变成了"王政之始"的记言记事符号——文字;线性符号则演变成了"巫教统治"的占卜预测符号——八卦。
To meet the demand of recording speeches and events, witches and wizards of ancient China either simplified and converted rock pictures into pictographic symbols, or abstracted them into linear signs, which demonstrated their talented imagination and extraordinary professional capability. Both pictographic and linear signs resulted from ancient witchery pictures, and they developed in different directions with the development of ancient witchery. Later, pictographic signs developed into philology in order to record speeches and events, while linear signs developed into Eight Trigrams for divination.
