What is known about the Ban Po Village, however, is that the village was inhabited between 45BCE, and the discovery of the village was brought to light when workmen dug the foundations of a factory in the same site in 1953CE chanced upon the site. Excavation works stopped, and the site is now a site of historical discovery, which has been classified into 27 unique categories with signs and images that suggest an early form of language, as noted by some scholars. Most of the recent studies on these writings support the theory and the belief that the Chinese characters evolved during Shang Dynasty’s reign. These discoveries show that the presence of many inscriptions with 10-60 characters featured on incised pieces of bones and also on tortoise shells that were used in oracular divination during the reign of the Shang Dynasty between the 18th and the 12th century BC. It’s worth noting that even with these discoveries, it is highly likely that the Chinese characters were developed earlier than this because the discovered writings were highly developed, with very small differences from what exists currently. So, perhaps the Chinese characters were invented much earlier.įrom the 1400BC script with between 25 characters that are mostly legible to date, the characters’ invention seems to date to a later time when the Zhou dynasty ruled between 1046 and 256BC. ![]()
