Naxi nationality is a minority located in the southwest of China with a long history. Four written linguistics of Naxi nationality have been handed down, namely, Dongbawen, Gebawen, Malimashawen, Dabawen, which are complicatedly interrelated with each other. It is rare to see such a situation as one linguistic is recorded by four written linguistics in the history of written linguistics worldwide, so it has much cognitive value to conduct a comparative research on the four written linguistics and to discuss the relations between them.Under the guidance of the theory on written linguistics and comparative written linguistics, through summing up the written linguistics with rich research results and studying further on the written linguistics with limited research results, we obtained the following conclusions:1. The area of the downstream of the Wuliang River and the east of Jinsha River is the cradle of the four written linguistics of Naxi nationality. Both Dongbawen and Dabawen originate form here. After the birth, Dabawen began developing independently, while Dongbawen spread to west with the migration of Naxi nationality, which later ramified comparatively immature phonogram Gebawen and simpler written linguistics Malimashawen.2. Dongbawen has an important influence on the birth and development of Gabawen and Malimashawen. Gabawen and Malimashawen's absorbing of Dongbawen grasps its core yet in a simpler and more abstract way.3. As an infusive one, the written linguistics of Han nationality has a great influence on that of Naxi which can't be ignored.4. Language and area are the important reasons for the birth and development of the four written linguistics of Naxi nationality, but the essential one is the discipline for written linguistics' development.5. The analysis on the self-created written linguistics and derivational written linguistics of Gabawen and Malimashawen indicates that the former kind may exist in a system of written linguistics created on the basis of the latter kind, and the former kind doesn't necessarily appear before the latter kind. 6. From a macroscopic view, the fact that Naxi nationality has four written linguistics as well as the relation between them demonstrate that it is quiet possible for one language to be recorded by four written linguistics.
