Character Evolution
Explore how each character evolved over 3000+ years of Chinese writing history.
In oracle bone script,「金」combines「土」(earth) with two dots (ore particles) and「亼」(cover), forming an ideogram for smelting metal from the earth.
In bronze script,「金」added two dots at the lower left representing metal ingots.
In seal script,「金」has「亼」above,「土」below, and two dots in between. The 'Shuowen' explains: 'Jin is the metal of five colors. Born from earth, it derives from earth.'
From an ideogram for smelting metal, to the head of the Five Elements, to a symbol of wealth and hardness — 'golden words of counsel,' 'passing the imperial examination with honors,' and 'sincerity can split metal and stone' all use gold as a metaphor for the precious and the eternal.
