Over the past eight thousand years, how many historical stories have been lost in the long river of time, leaving people with many questions. Some of the facts that are commonplace in life are still like mysteries, and they are still full of opinions, rumors, or doubts. Today we will talk about the story of the ancient surname--- star surname.
The star surname is the same as the Zhang surname, and it belongs to one of the twenty-eight houses. The stars belong to the fourth of the seven suzaku, located in the head position of the suzaku image, symbolizing the eyes of the suzaku, and the eyes of birds are as bright as the stars, so it is called the stars. The animal totem in the Twenty-Eight Houses is the horse. Ranked in the order of wood gold earth and moon fire and water, the stars are arranged in the sun, so it is a star and a sun horse.
Xing surname is very rare, distributed only in Hebei Cang County, Yanshan County, Shandong Qufu, of which Yanshan County Xing surname village name is called Xingma Village.
The fact that the surname of the star is rare does not mean that there are few clans in the Hoshiri Masu clan, and the hoshi has a similar situation to the hoshi. The Xingsu clan also submitted to the Yellow Emperor relatively early, and was also heavily valued, holding the position of Siyue and dominating the south. The chief of the Xingrima tribe who held the position of Siyue was named Yun, and the chief Xingyun was given one of the surnames of the twelve zodiac signs, changed to the surname of Wu, and Wu was the local branch of the horse, so Wu and Ma were the surnames of the Xingrima tribe. Since Noon Yun served as the Counselor of the Four Yues, in the same way as the Character of the Four Yues, highlighting the identity and status of the Councilor, Noon Added Speech was next to Xu. Xu extended the meaning of consent, permission. What we often say today about permission comes from permission. Words of the same kind, as well as Xu Match, Acquiescence, Many, Little, etc., are all from that era, and these are the language habits and information left by the Xingrima Tribe in holding important positions in the Four Mountains. Similarly, there is a Xiang surname, the Xiang surname originates from the Ji surname, and the Yellow Emperor is a relative of the uncle, because of his great merits, he was given the surname of Xiang, and the meaning of Xiang is neck, connecting the most important head. Xiang shi is one of the four mountains, the main oriental, and also in charge of the supervision, Xiang shi has many subordinates, responsible for inspecting all parties to build, so the person responsible for inspection is called the project, that is, the meaning of Xiang's eyes, the word project is derived from this, the project department, the quantifier item, are also derived from this. The Lü surname is also derived from the Ji surname, which means the backbone of the spine, and is also a heavy subject of the Yellow Emperor, which is a relative of his uncle. The origin of the surnames of Shen, Xu, Shen, Xiang, and Lü is related to the Yellow Emperor, and they are all given by the Yellow Emperor's heavy subjects. Studying the early migration of these five surnames is of great help to the study of the Yellow Emperor culture.
Xu is a surname, but also the name of the ancient country, now Xuchang City, is the birthplace of the Xu surname. Because the Xu surname is too prestigious, the direct descendants of xu yun of the Xingsu tribe all take Xu as the surname, and the Xu surname has more descendants because it is more noble. The clan members of Xu Yun's collateral lineage, those who are not up to the level, are still surnamed Ma or Xing or Wu.
Xuchang, the birthplace of the Xu surname, is almost uncontroversial, but various theories point to xu as the ancestor of the Xu surname, Xu You, who was a person in the era of Emperor Yao, three or four hundred years later than the era of the Yellow Emperor. Most of the accounts recorded by Xu You are that Xu You lived in The JiShan Mountains of Yangcheng (around present-day Dengfeng). Yangcheng is a place name in the Xia Dynasty, that is, the area around today's Dengfeng Chengcheng Town, from which it is judged that the recorder should be a person after the Xia Dynasty. However, Miyama is an ancient place name, and Miyama should be the territory of the Twenty-Eight Su mizugugu tribe. The view that the ancestor of the Xu surname is Xu Yu should be questionable, because there can be many different eras in history, and different ethnic groups have the same surname because they are sealed in a Fangguo place name, and there will be no one with the surname of fangguo after the existence of Fangguo for several years. At the time of Xu You's life, Xu was already a place name of the Fang Country, so Xu You could not be the ancestor of the Xu surname, at most he was only the earliest known Xu name person.
Ignoring the origin of words in the special sense of allowing and agreeing to match may not be able to find the source of the Xu surname. In the Yin Shang oracle bones, Xu Chang is written as 橆, 無, 無同午, indicating that Xu Yuan is from noon, noon is from horses, and Ma Yuan is from stars and sun horses, which should be regarded as an internal connection. If it were not for the prominent position of the Xu surname at the beginning of its origin, how could there be so many extensions about Xu in Chinese history? Similarly prominent and left many extended meanings are the Shen characters of the Shen surname.
The idiom of the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse is believed to have been heard by everyone, but the sources are diverse. Today I would like to give you a new explanation. The Monkey Ministry served as the councillor of the Four Peaks, judging merit and rewarding the marquis, with an emphasis on applying according to the procedure. MaBu served as the councilor of the Four Peaks, with a focus on approving applications and granting the title of Marquis. By the way, the word application, the original meaning is the request submitted by the Shen Monkey Tribe, and similar words include appeals, extensions, declarations, grievances, applications, claims, lawsuits, etc., all derived from the application of the Four Mountains. In the early days of the Yellow Emperor, the four Yues were all conscientious, each performing his duties, orderly, and the world was in great rule. However, at the end of the period, due to the four mountains pulling each other apart, the government affairs began to slacken off. Because during the reign of the Yellow Emperor, there was also a management system, that is, the Zodiac tribe took turns on duty, and rotated every year, so that there was a reason for the slack of the monkey department and the horse department: "It is not my department that is on duty, I don't care about this matter." "Over time, people found that the Horse Moon of the Year of the Monkey had come, and the Monkey Ministry and the Four Yue Officials of the Horse Department had no reason to do anything. Later generations summed up the saying of the Year of the Monkey and the Month of Ma based on this situation. This statement can be used as a joke, but this statement is also the most in line with human nature and the law of historical development.
The history books record that the Yellow Emperor spent one hundred years, the earth split, and the emperor. In this sentence, the earth rift is mostly interpreted as an earthquake, and then the Yellow Emperor dies. This seems to be a metaphysical way of thinking. This sentence should be viewed from the perspective of history, the Yellow Emperor's hundred years should be an expression of the Yellow Emperor's rule for a hundred years, as for several generations of emperors, there is no explanation, if there is only one generation, it seems not enough to believe. However, the legend is three generations, and three generations and one hundred years seem to be in line with common sense. The land split should be understood as the fragmentation of the territory, and the unified Yongsan cultural country reverted to the situation of the princes. In such a situation, the Yellow Emperor died.
From an archaeological point of view, when the Yellow Emperor died, the Central Plains was in a more serious war situation. There were almost all kinds of sub-feudal noble surnames who fled en masse, such as Xu surname, Shen surname, Xiang surname, Lü surname, Wei surname, Lou surname, Shen surname, Jinyun surname and so on. If the history contained in the Bamboo Book Chronicle is crueler than confucius's Zen, the actual situation excavated by archaeology is many times more cruel than the Bamboo Book Chronicle. Politics has never been a matter of harmony, but of exploitation, killing, expulsion, repression and exile. The destruction of the tomb at the site of the Tao Temple shows the bloody atmosphere under the hatred of the family and the country.
The development of every political system to the end hinders the administration and stability of the regime. The reason why the siyue management system was not adopted by Xia Shang later was related to the economic foundation background at that time. The siyue administration of territory and sub-feudalism, in the early days, was conducive to the management of a wide area of political power, but not conducive to the centralized rule of the regime, and eventually eventually reduced to the division of princes. In such a political context, how can the idea of the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse not become a reality?
The point of view of this article: The surnames directly evolved from the starry horse su are the star surname, the horse surname, the noon surname, and the Xu surname, and the mascot of the star surname, the horse surname, the noon surname, and the Xu surname is the horse.
