In addition, it should be noted that even under normal circumstances, there are three Yellow Sans and five Five Emperors. Specifically, it is also said that the Three Emperors and Five Emperors belong to nine people. Among the names listed above, some are the names of the whole clan or tribe, some are the names of clan or tribe leaders (equivalent to emperors, presidents and chairmen), and some are the names or titles of specific people. As for the time when they live, it is even more unclear. The opinions of various historians, from 5,000 years ago (before the 26th century) to 1000 or even tens of thousands of years ago, have never been conclusive. Their respective fields of activity are also controversial.
