Historical Evolution
Ancient Times
Changchun, a fertile land, has been home to humans as far back as 40,000 years ago.
In 1951, human bone fossils were discovered in Yushu City, Changchun Prefecture, proving that as early as ancient times, humans on this land had entered the Homo sapiens stage and belonged to the early stage of matrilineal clan society.
In 1984, a Neolithic human settlement site was discovered in Nong'an County, which showed that people here had mastered primitive textile technology as far back as the Neolithic Age. Entering the age of clothing, primitive agriculture was also very advanced. developed.
Ancient times
Changchun comes from the ancient Sushen language "Cha A Chong" about 7,000 years ago. It is the prayer language used by Sushen in ancient times when offering sacrifices to heaven. Because the place of prayer is in Xidu, later generations gradually replaced Xidu (transliterated as "Changchun" in Chinese translation) with "Chaa Chong" and became the place name. Although the history of Chaah Chong predates Xidu by thousands of years, in fact, later generations confused it. Chaah Chong is the earliest classical historical name of Changchun.
Changchun was founded in 2130 BC (the 25th year of Emperor Shun) and was the second capital of the early Sushen Kingdom. At that time, it was the main gathering place of the southern branch of Sushen (ancestors of the Manchus), called Xi (three seven-character pronunciation: Xi, named in commemoration of Sushen's victory over foreigners to announce the good news). The second generation of Sushen's royal family built here The adobe walls and palaces are called Xidu. At this time, there were about 1,000 households. This is the earliest classical history of Changchun, so "Xi" should also be the abbreviation of Changchun.
In about 1800 BC, the Hui (Ui) and Mo (芊) tribes of the southern branch of Sushen gradually migrated to Xidu and merged to form the Huimo (Ulty) tribe (a branch of the predecessor of the Manchu). In order to commemorate the integration of the two major tribes into the Sushen Kingdom, King Sushen changed the name of the country to Dehui (Dehui) and "Xidu" to "Helong (Helong) City". During the Western Han Dynasty, Fuyu State was established and gradually exchanged culture with the Eastern Han Dynasty in the Central Plains. Taoism was introduced to Fuyu, and all the people believed in Guankou Erlang ("Guankou Erlang" in Manchu is thought to be the pronunciation of Guankou Erlang, who is actually the second son of Qin Governor Li Bing). There are many Erlang temples in the city. The capital Helongcheng was renamed "Tiangang City". By this time, the population had exceeded 10,000, and the city walls and palaces had been replaced by stone buildings. In the long years since then, although this ancient capital has changed many different names, it has always been the royal capital of the ancient kingdom in Northeast China. [4]
During the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, the Changchun area became part of the "Anbei Protectorate" of the Tang Dynasty. It was called "Shushan Mansion" by people in the Central Plains at that time. It was the place where prisoners of the Literary Prison were distributed in the Tang Dynasty. There were many literati who were unjustly sentenced to Shushan City, which made it a cultural city and a place of study that many students from the Central Plains yearned for. Therefore, "Shushan has roads and diligent work" is widely spread to this day. At this time, Changchun was already a large city with a population of nearly 100,000, and the city wall area had expanded dozens of times. It was also because the Central Plains culture was widely introduced into Northeast Asia during this period, and it has continued to influence the development direction of Northeastern national culture for thousands of years.
In 846 AD, Sumo Mohe leader Da Zuorong established Bohai County here, changed "Shushan Prefecture" to "Longzhou Prefecture" and designated it as the capital. Later, the capital was moved to "Aodong City", but Longzhou Prefecture is still the cultural and economic center and the largest city of Bohai State, with a population of nearly 500,000.
In 916 AD, Khitan was founded and gradually became stronger. The Changchun area became an important place for the Khitan to control the Jurchens. Since a Khitan prince was born here, the Longzhou Prefecture was renamed "Yeludeguang City" after the Khitan prince.
In 1115 AD, the Jurchens rose up and established the Kingdom of Jin. They changed the name of Changchun back to the ancestral Bailong Prefecture in Longzhou. After moving the capital to Zhongdu (Beijing), it was renamed Longzhou "Kuancheng Prefecture" (Kuancheng Prefecture). Chengzi) is the military, political and cultural center of the north. At this time, the country of Dajin was prosperous and the people were strong. Nestorianism (Christianity) introduced from the west became one of the three major state religions of Dajin (Taoism, Buddhism, and Nestorianism). It was believed by all the people. Kuanchengzi became the largest Christian holy place in Northeast Asia. There are many large and small churches in the city, and there are hundreds of thousands of believers. At this time, Kuancheng has a population of nearly one million, and the city has reached a large scale. The city wall is tall and divided into inner and outer cities. The palaces are not in use but are still very luxurious. The people live and work in peace and contentment. There are dedicated pastors who preach in churches. Most of the believers are wealthy landowners who build large and small churches. The small citizens listen to the sermons in the largest public churches.
Since then, Mongolia has become increasingly powerful, and it took nearly a year to capture Kuanchengzi. Because of their belief in Tibetan Buddhism, the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty believed that this was an unknown place for Nestorian Christianity, so they attacked it for a long time. Not to be left behind, he ordered the walls of Kuanchengzi to be demolished, and the people moved to Liaoyang and the Central Plains. This thousand-year-old capital turned into ruins. The ruins were dug three feet into the ground and razed to the ground. Therefore, this ancient city can hardly be found today. Of any traces, only a few remaining relics are left near today's Xiaochengzi Village.
In the late Ming Dynasty, the Jurchens flourished again and the Qing Empire was established. Changbai Mountain became a holy place for the Manchu people (Huang Taiji changed Jurchen to Manchu) to worship their ancestors. In the original ancient times
Qing Taizu Aixin Jueluo Nurhachi
The inn along the Yitong River in the south became the only way to go to Changbai Mountain. When Qianlong passed here several times in the summer when he went to Changbai Mountain to worship his ancestors, he found that the climate here was much cooler than that in Shengjing, and The scenery was pleasant, so he casually recited the poem "Changbai has been in Xizhou for thousands of years, and spring is endless in Kuancheng." Later, after Jiaqing ascended the throne, he went to Changbai Mountain to worship his ancestors. When he came to this inn, he also found that the climate here was very cool. I also heard that the late emperor said If so, local administrative agencies began to be established here in the fifth year of Jiaqing (1800). Take the two words of the first sentence and set it as "Changchun Hall". [4]
In the 5th year of Jiaqing (1800), the Qing government established the "Changchun Hall" in Xinsheng City. There are two directors, one for inspection and one for inspection. They are in charge of civil affairs and judicial affairs and are subordinate to the Jilin General. From then on, this thousand-year-old capital was reorganized. [4]
