The paper I just wrote turned out to be true

Chapter 168 Argument: World Characters Originated in China

Chapter 168 Argument: World Characters Originated in China
Professor Wu said in a low voice: "Around the 13th century BC, the Phoenicians created the first batch of alphabetic characters in human history, with a total of 22 letters."

"The Phoenician alphabet is the beginning of the world's alphabet. In the West, it is derived from the ancient Greek alphabet, which in turn developed into the Latin alphabet and the Cyrillic alphabet. The Greek alphabet and the Latin alphabet are the basis of all Western countries' alphabets."

"In the East, it derived the Aramaic alphabet, which evolved into Indian, Arabic, Hebrew, Persian and other national alphabets. Our Mongolian and Manchu alphabets also evolved from this"

"Current archaeological data show that this happened in the 13th century BC, and there are no archaeological artifacts to prove it before."

The leader surnamed Wang pondered for a moment.

"You mean that there is a connection between this tablet and the Phoenician alphabet."

"Initial judgment, there should be some relationship between the two."

Professor Wu looked at the letters on the slate again and confirmed.

The leader surnamed Wang asked the opinions of other experts, and he got a general conclusion.

"I have a suggestion."

Just as the field fell silent, a voice sounded.

Everyone looked for their reputation and found that it was Lin Chen who spoke just now.

Professor Wu's expression softened.

He had heard of Lin Chen's reputation a long time ago.

Oracle genius.

A master of history.

The favorite student of Professor Huang of Huaqing University.

Many bigwigs favor it.

Professor Li Xiuxian and Professor Xu, who are famous for Xia, Shang and Zhou studies, have praised them in private.

There is also an older generation, Professor Zhang Guangzhi.

That's something a student can be proud of.

However, he was actually recognized by scholars in other research fields, Professor Zong who has made outstanding contributions to the study of Ming history.

Professor Wu knows more. He has known a good friend for many years, Professor Ge, and told him about Lin Chen's deeds many times, which left a deep impression on him.

Therefore, he also wanted to see Lin Chen's opinion.

The leader surnamed Wang said: "Please tell me."

Lin Chen scratched his head and said, "I'm just making a bold guess. As for whether it's correct, I can't guarantee it. What Professor Wu said is also very reasonable, and I personally agree with it."

"Mine is just an addition."

"As we all know, the oldest writing in the world should be pictographs."

"The images of things in the natural world are the basic elements of human-created characters, and there is no doubt that characters come from primitive people's pictures."

"For example, the hieroglyphic script of the ancient Egyptians and the cuneiform script of the Sumerians are similar to the oracle bone inscriptions of ancient China. They all originated from inscriptions and pictures, with pictograms as the basic principle."

"With the subsequent development, there are two modes of evolution of characters. The western world began to change from pictographs to alphabets. Only China has preserved pictographs."

Lin Chen paused and asked, "Mr. Wu, I should be right."

Professor Wu: "Yes."

"In the process of writing development, there are two evolutionary principles."

"Things in nature are objective, and pictographs were initially described objectively. Pictographs all over the world have something in common."

Lin Chen's eyes fell on the stone slab.

"We may not need to worry about which character this is. One thing is clear, the letters on the slate have traces of the original pictographs."

"More importantly, when I read these words, I also felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if I was looking at the predecessor of Oracle."

Professor Wu paused and hesitated, "You mean that these letters are in the process of transforming from pictographs to alphabets. As long as we push forward as far as possible and find the original pictographs of these letters, it is possible to decipher them? "

Lin Chen smiled and said, "That's what it means."

"In the process of the evolution of pictographs like alphabets, many changes have taken place. There are many kinds of alphabets in the world, but its initial appearance is the most objective, so as long as we grasp the essence, it is possible to find the most original meaning."

Professor Wu said happily, "It makes sense."

"This method is very good."

The leader surnamed Wang said: "So, there is hope that it can be cracked?"

Professor Wu's face was full of confidence.

"You can try it."

The leader surnamed Wang showed a slight smile, and said: "It's good if you can crack it. This task will be handed over to a few experts. If there is anything that needs cooperation, just ask."

Professor Wu: "OK."

"Lin Chen, you can't run away, you must participate in this project."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I'm extremely happy."

He's definitely going to be there.

A line of words floated in front of his eyes.

[The argument that the world's characters originated in China began. 】

[Argument authenticity: 10/100]

Lin Chen speculates that the reason for not starting from scratch may be because the Mayan hieroglyphs originated from the Olmec civilization.

The Olmec civilization and Yin Shang have an inseparable relationship.

Therefore, there is a certain degree of authenticity in originating in China.

Of course there may be other reasons.

After all, the world-recognized Japanese and other East Asian characters all originated in China.

The argument also does not give a specific topic.

There is no publicity either.

Not to mention rewards.

It seems that there should be no time.

What is recorded on the stone tablet?
Lin Chen was a little confused, he felt that his hole was getting bigger and bigger.

At first, the Himalayas and the magic pen were given as rewards.

As a result, the combination of the two is what it is now.

But now there are many new pits.

I can't finish it.

June NO.18.

Foreign experts have also basically arrived.

Project Ark officially begins.

The eyes of the world are on.

All kinds of live broadcast equipment are set up to broadcast live globally.

[It's so exciting, I feel like this live broadcast will be pinched in a while. 】

[Haha, I feel the same way, if something unreasonable is dug up, I can't explain it clearly. 】

[Yeah, if there are aliens, they can't hide them. 】

in the extranet.

Some foreign netizens left the stage to comment one after another.

[This is definitely not Noah's Ark. 】

[I don't think so, because you can't build such a huge ship]

Suddenly there was a discordant comment in the comment area.

Good guy, id is from Huaxia.

Some netizens even ran outside.

After seeing it, a few foreign visitors and netizens directly broke their defenses and began to refute.

[Impossible, the subway in your country will take three years to repair, and this giant ship will take at least 1000 years, so there is only one possibility, it was repaired by Huaxia. 】

[Laughing to death, the outside started to spray, who is the hero. 】

[Stop discussing these useless things, they have already started. 】

[Fuck, is that person who passed by just now Master Lin? 】

[Damn, it's really Master Lin. 】

【Awesome】

[Master Lin is mighty. 】

ps: Ask for a monthly pass.
