摘　　要：文字作为文明确立的重要标志,承载并规约了不同的文化品格,从不同文字的起源方式可以考察相应的文化差异。大规模的汉字涌现于殷商时期,这主要是满足人神沟通的需要,从而也奠定了中华礼乐文化的基础;希腊字母主要产生于商业贸易的需要,西方契约文化因此而诞生。As an important symbol of the establishment of civilization,characters carry and regulate different cultural characters.From different ways of origin of characters,we can examine the differences between Chinese and western cultures.Large scale Chinese characters emerged in the Yin Shang Dynasties,mainly to meet the needs of human and God communication,which laid the foundation of Chinese ritual culture;Greek letters mainly produced in the needs of commercial trade,and the western contract culture was born.

关 键 词：文字起源 祖先崇拜 商业贸易
