When mummifying their kings and queens, ancient Egyptians would remove the brain and all the internal内的 organs except for one, the heart. Believing it held all thought and feeling, the deceased would need it in the afterlife来世 when they "throws again." By 2000 BC, Chinese doctors had uncovered the heart's role in pumping blood throughout the body, while Western figures from Aristotle to the Renaissance believed that the heart governed the emotions, a notion想法 so powerful强有力的 that it still persists today in a different form.
The heart's symbols resemblance类同之处 to the real thing is debatable未决定的. Its origins are uncertain无常的, but we see it as far back as the 6th century BC.
