In oracle bone script,「心」resembles a cross-section of the heart — the center is the ventricle, and the left and right parts are the atria.
In bronze script, the heart form of「心」became clearer, emphasizing the outlines of the pericardium and ventricles.
In seal script,「心」resembles the shape of a seated pregnant woman — the ancients' depiction of the heart's position in the body. The 'Shuowen' explains: 'Xin is the human heart.'
