本文廣泛的探討了從遠古到秦漢時期先民對風這一自然現象的崇拜意識，初步將古人的風神崇拜原因分為兩大類，包括因為處於地理環境上的多風性質或伴隨風而來的天象而成為風神化身的自然神崇拜和季風氣候下風向和季節的必然性所衍申出的風向與時節對應的具神聖性之傳統觀念。並指出後者是古代風神崇拜的主流，從早期的利用瞽者聽風以判定時節到刻有四風和代表四季徵象的四方風名甲骨，更衍成以風向與時節的對應與否來判定兵家攻守或醫家虛實的依據都是這一支風神觀念極度發展的結果。 　　本文在探討中國古代風神崇拜之餘，並從文字學的角度論風字的產生與演變過程，其次更由四方風名甲骨片的文字指出了經典上文字的來由及歷來經說不當之處。 / This is a comprehensive discussion on early man's worship and consciousness of the natural phenomanon of wind,from ancient times until the Han period.First of all the reason for early man 's wind spirit worship are divided into two main categories : includingthe natural spirit worship of the many types of wind in an inhabited geographical environment or the natural phenomena which accompany wind and become the embodiment of wind spirit; and the traditional concepts and the effect of the season and climate on the direction;the inevitability of the development of wind direction and the corresponding times of the spirit divinity moreover,the discussion point out that the latter is main trend of ancient wind spirit worship, from the use of the blind in early times to feel for wind to judge the times and season,to the (four corners wind name) oracle bone carved with the four winds and the symbol of four season,it is further developed to the corresponding non coprespondance of wind dire- ction and times to determine military manoeuvres or the bases for madical fact. These are all the results of the extreme degree of development of this branch of wind spirit concept. 　　This discussion,in addition to exploring ancient wind spirit worship in China,also discusses,from a linguistic point of view,the emergence and the development process of the character wind furthermore,the discussion uses the words carved on the (four corners wind name) oracle bone fragment to point out the origin of characters contained in the classics, and also to point out any in appropriate areas which have existed until now in the ex-planation of the classics.
