The earliest dynasty in history is not the Xia Dynasty founded by Dayu, but the earliest dynasty in Chinese history, the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, this Tang Dynasty is not the Tang Dynasty surnamed Li, but the Tang Dynasty around 2200 BC and the dynasty established by Yao, so the history books call Yao Yao Jin.
After the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Yu Dynasty also established a dynasty through Da Shun. The Yu Dynasty was followed by the Xia Dynasty, which was built on textbooks by Dayu. Chinese surnames were started by the Xia Dynasty.
At present, the international community does not recognize the existence of the Xia Dynasty, but not acknowledging it does not mean that he does not exist. Because there is such a precedent. Westerners originally did not recognize the existence of the Shang Dynasty, but after the large-scale discovery of oracle bones in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Ming Dynasty, Westerners had no choice but to recognize the Shang Dynasty as a history of faith.
Now combined with the situation in all aspects, the oracle bone is already a very mature script, it is impossible to suddenly appear in the Shang Dynasty, before this there should be a writing, but it has not been found in large quantities, Tang.
Yuxia Shang Zhou is the five banners of Biao Bing's ancient Chinese history, and these dynasties are recorded in ancient Chinese history books. The oldest historical book in China, Shangshu, began in the Tang Yao era, recording how Yao arranged intuitively to measure the calendar in four directions, and finally concluded that the year was 366 days, with the leap month at four o'clock.
This shows that Chinese had accurate legislation 4,000 years ago. Yao belonged to one of the Five Emperors, and before Yao there was also the Diku Emperor Huan. The Yellow Emperor, as the first historical book in ancient China, was rearranged by Confucius.
The Book of Shang originally had hundreds of articles, recording many historical records of the Yellow Emperor and his former rulers, but Confucius thought that those were too far away, and there was a lot of mythological and orbital knowledge, so they were all deleted, starting only with the more recent Tang Yao.
Therefore, we now see that the first part of the Book of Shangshu is a small dot, but Confucius did not deny the existence of the emperor together. Confucius gave a concise and accurate description of the history of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors.
The era before the Three Emperors is the Age of Mythology, the Era of the Three Emperors is the Age of Legends, the Era of the Five Emperors is the Era of Semi-XinShi, and the Xia Shang Zhou is the Era of Xinshi.
This formulation should be accurate. Chinese history Chinese the final say, we should have this cultural self-confidence.
Because from the current archaeological excavations, a large number of scattered and widely distributed pre-Shang Dynasty writings have been unearthed, such as the Longshan culture, liangzhu culture, and Jiahu site, there have been regular carved symbols or characters, especially the oracle bone wooden characters excavated from the Jiahu site, about 8,000 years ago, there is every reason to believe that with the deepening of archaeological excavations, China will find more systematic ancient writings, and China's ancient history will become more and more clear. Here are historical anecdotes.
