When there is a written record, it is the Zhou Dynasty.
This is the beginning of the history of faith.
Three generations ago.
Because there is no written record. Just a legend.
★ Yu Chaozhi's theory
In the first issue of Hebei Academic in 2002, Comrade Wang Shumin's academic paper "There was a Yu before Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties" was published. "Yu Chao" means "Yu Shun" in history books, referring to Yao Zhonghua in Shun Di. Yao Zhonghua, whose word is Jade, is a tribe of the clan commune. Why is it called Zhong Hua? Legend has it that Shun's eyes are double pupils, so they are "heavy". The word "Hua" may refer to China people of the Chinese nation. According to an article written by Yuncheng scholar Wang Xueqiao in Yuncheng Daily several years ago, the word "Huaxia" can be traced back to "Xia" in Xiaxian and "Hua" in Hejin. These two places are the birthplaces of the Chinese nation in China. According to Comrade Wang Shumin's paper, in the ancient history of China, it is generally called Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties in the world. Some ancient books are called Yu, Xia, Shang and Zhou. Before the Xia Dynasty, the only political deeds that were clearly praised were the demise of Yao, Shun and Yu. It is said that Shun was in power for 50 years. In Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, the number handed down was 100, and the names of emperors were all above 10. As a dynasty, You Yu seems very reluctant. But "Everything is done in leisure" says that "Yu Xia is over 2,000 years old". According to this statement, the Youyu family is not just a generation of 50 years. Today's history books say that "the Xia Dynasty ruled for more than 400 years". Last year, I saw the latest research results of historians' dynastic history in CCTV, and determined that the Xia Dynasty was 47 1 year, and based on this, it was calculated as 1520. Wang Shumin's textual research shows that Guoyu, Zuozhuan, Historical Records, Wudide De and Royal Family Names can be classified into the Yu lineage with the surname 15, which means that there were 15 emperors in the Yu dynasty. Since there is the surname Yu, it is not difficult to draw a correct conclusion about its historical position.
According to the latest local chronicles of Yongji, the first sentence of Preface to Yongji County written by the magistrate in the Qing Dynasty in 12 (A.D. 1886) is: "Since Pubanyu, people who have traveled all over the world have seen it all through the ages, and the eyes of the river have been covered." Since it is called the Jade Emperor, it can be seen that it is a dynasty. The longest feudal dynasty in China was Kangxi 6 1 year in Qing Dynasty, so it is estimated that there were at least twenty-four dynasties in slave society. If Shun reigned for 50 years, there would be at least 30 generations of Yu Dynasty. On this basis, Comrade Wang Shumin's viewpoint of "traveling for more than one generation in fifty years" can be completely established.
If the argument of Yu Chaozhi's theory is established and confirmed, the general term of China's history will change. Change "five thousand years in China" to "six thousand years in China" and "five thousand years in Chinese civilization" to "six thousand years in Chinese civilization". If so, the popularity of Yongji history will be greatly improved today.
