摘要

本文係由觀察四象二十八宿與季節的配合和現今天文學觀測發生的不吻合現象為起點，回溯這套星座系統的起源，並由文化背景推敲其得名的由來。其命名原理似乎與古代世界的農耕活動與日常生活有密切的關係。

By observing the discrepancy between the locations of the so-called 4 quarters plus twenty-eight Chinese constellations and their western counterparts, I try to trace the origin of this set of Chinese astronomical system and figure out how individual Chinese constellations were named. They were probably associated with agricultural activities and daily life routines in the ancient world.
