This study investigates in archaeological context the prehistoric origins of Chinese writing in the Late Neolithic (3500-2000 BCE) and Early Bronze Age (2000-1250 BCE). It uses a novel and inclusive theoretical approach to the examination of archaeological evidence, grammatological data, and textual sources with the intent of demonstrating that Chinese writing emerged as a result of a long process that began in various parts of the territory of what is now China in the Late Neolithic and continued during the Early Bronze Age.
