This work serves as a specimen of a larger project originally intended to cover all Primitive Chinese Characters, including Clefs and Phonetics. While complete in itself, it reflects the author's broader ambitions, which may be revisited if demand arises. The limited interest in Chinese Literature, the high costs of necessary illustrations, and the author's shifting focus to other areas of philology contributed to the decision to abandon the original plan.
