摘　　要：殷墟甲骨文中习见"()"字,象首有触须并突出其背部之翼的昆虫形,后或追加火旁和禾旁,乃为古秋字所本。作为昆虫的秋,今指蝗虫;作为时令用词,则指秋季。甲骨文中有诸多反映蝗灾的记录。商代对蝗灾开展了一些防治活动,或用祭祀祈求神灵消灾除灾,或利用火烧对蝗进行驱赶和扑杀,或利用网具来捕捉蝗虫。The character ＂（ ）＂ is with tentacles on the head and striking back commonly seen in oracle bone script, with the shape of an insect wings. Later the Chinese character components 火 and 禾 were added to＂ （ ）＂, which formed the original meanings of the character ,秋. As an insect,秋 refers to the locust while as a seasonal word, it refers to autumn. There are many records of locust plagues in oracle inscriptions. In the Shang Dynasty, people dealt with the plague of locusts mainly by praying to Gods, burning with fire and catching with nets.
