Is the sky pictographic?

Tian Zi is not an ideogram.

1, the origin and evolution of Chinese character Tian is very complicated and has gone through many stages. The earliest Chinese characters are hieroglyphics, that is, they express meaning by depicting images of things, such as the sun, the moon, mountains and water. However, the origin of Tian Zi is not like this.

2. According to the research of archaeologists and linguists, Tian Zi first appeared in Oracle Bone Inscriptions in Shang Dynasty. It's a noun representing a human body part and refers to the top of a person's head. In Oracle Bone Inscriptions, the shape of Tian Zi is a human figure, especially the head, so it can be understood as the head, which is the original meaning of Tian Zi.

Later, with the development and evolution of Chinese characters, Tian Zi gradually lost its original image meaning and became an abstract symbol pointing to the sky. Although Tian Zi is not hieroglyphics, its origin and evolution are related to human body parts, which is also a very interesting aspect of Chinese character culture.

The Chinese character "Tian" has a wide meaning, which can represent the sky, weather, days and many other aspects. In the ancient culture of China, Tian Zi played a very important role and was regarded as the supreme existence. People think that heaven is the master of the universe, the father of all things, and the existence that human beings can't reach. Therefore, Tian Zi was endowed with lofty status and significance in the ancient culture of China.
