The phoenix is the protector in people's imagination in primitive society. The phoenix is a beautiful and magical giant bird. Although it is a virtual creature that does not exist in fact, it has always been the object of worship of ancient Chinese ancestors.

The evolution of the phoenix pattern Whether there is a phoenix pattern in the Neolithic period is still inconsistent in academic circles. Some people think that the bird pattern on the Neolithic painted pottery is the prototype of the phoenix. During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, phoenix patterns were all the side images of birds, and they were often arranged symmetrically on bronze wares, and most of the bird beaks were in the shape of a closed hook; The phoenix is isolated from the figurative birds in real life. The images of phoenix patterns in Shang and Zhou bronzes, like those of dragon patterns and animal face patterns in the period, lack a certain unity and evolutionary laws. At that time, the phoenix character in oracle bone inscriptions and bronze inscriptions also fully showed such a feature. The phoenix pattern at this time is completely the mystification of birds and the exaggeration of art. The Warring States period was a period when a hundred schools of thought contended and the new economy flourished, and the phoenix pattern showed a new style.
