What happened at each of those important times.
At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based language. It dates back several thousand years to the use of longgu—animal bones and shells on which symbols were carved by ancient Chinese people. some of the ancient symbols can still be seen in today's hanzi.
By the Shang Dynasty (around 1600—1046 BCE), these symbols had become a well-developed writing system. Over the years, the system developed into different forms, as it was a time when people were divided geographically, leading to many varieties of dialects and characters. This, however, changed under Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty (221-207 BCE).

The jag an can give all of us in the modern era insight into how ancient chinese saw the world around them and into their great creativity in expressing their observations. Take, for example, the modern character ja, meaning home or family. The jagan character looks like a house with a nice pig inside.
