中国结的介绍（Introduction of Chinese Knot）

    说到中国结的起源可以追溯到旧石器时代末期，也就是山顶洞人的文化遗迹中，便发现有“骨针”的存在。既然有针，那时便也一定也有了绳线，故由此推断，当时简单的结绳和缝纫技术应已具雏形。中国结在早期是文字的前身。首先是易系辞载：『上古结绳记事，后世圣人易之以书契』，说的是上古世纪的人们以结绳去记录事件，后世纪的人们为了方便而采纳文字书写记录事件。再来是郑玄周易又注称；『大事大结其绳，小事小结其绳』，指的是大事件就以大结绳做记录，小事件就以小结绳做记录。此外，战国铜器上所见的数字符号上都还留有结绳的形状。由这些历史资料来看，绳结确实曾被用作辅助记忆的工具，也可说是文字的前身。总结来说，它原本是由旧石器时代的缝衣打结，后推展至汉朝的仪礼记事，再演变成今日的装饰手艺。

    Phrase about the origin of the Chinese knot, it can be traced back as early as the end of the Palaeolithic age. In the cultural relics of the cave people, the existence of " spicule " was found. Since there is a needle, there must be a rope at that time, so it is inferred that the simple rope knotting and sewing technique should have taken shape at that time. The Chinese knot was the predecessor of writing in the early days. First is The Book of Changes of the Zhou Dynasty which said: " People in the ancient century used knots to record events, and people in later centuries adopted writing to record events for convenience. "

    Zheng Xuan Zhouyi also annotated; " Big events are recorded with big knots, and small events are recorded with small knots. " Also, for the shape of knots can be seen on the bronzes’ numbers and symbols of the Warring States period. Judging from these historical data, Chinese knots have indeed had been used as a tool to assist memories, and can be said to be the predecessor of words. In summary, Chinese knot was originally a knotting of garments in the Paleolithic age, and then extended to the ritual memorabilia of the Han Dynasty, finally revolved into today's decorative craftsmanship.
