Chinese culture is extensive and profound. Mathematical achievements of ancient China is also very prominent. To study the history of mathematics, mathematical origin can not ignored. Chinese mathematical origin can be traced back to the Stone Age of the primitive society. It appeared from Actual needs, and through the continuous development, knowledge structure was formed today. Appear to meet the actual needs, the function of mathematics is very large. In different period, the origin and function of mathematics is not the same. Study math now relies mainly on the origin of artefacts, archaeologi cal data and literature records and legends. According to the secondary literature, summary the origin and functions. Explore the origin andfunction of mathematics from Preface and Postscript. Accord to the above, the work will be as follows:Firstly, describes the basic information of the mathematical emergence and origins, it is mainly from the Stone Age to the Spring and Autumn period. Explore the origin of number, and summary ancient legends;Secondly, search the preface and postscript of ancient mathematics book, view records related to the origin of mathematics, and study the origins of mathematics and functions of mathematics.Thirdly, study the origins and functions of modern scholars, and analyze, tentatively, the reason for the shaping the view of origin and function of mathematics in anceint China.
