Why is there a story of Huang surname (about 100 words)
In ancient times, in the eastern suburbs of China, there were many primitive people who took birds as their totems. They originated from the Yanshan Mountains in Hebei Province, where all kinds of birds have lived since ancient times. Primitive people took birds as their food, feathers as their clothing and birds as their main source of livelihood. They gradually developed from barbarians who shot birds with long bows to totem worship, symbolic names of nations and tribes, and then developed into surnames. Among them, the nine clans are the most powerful, which is called Jiuyi in history, namely Yi, Yu, Fang, Huang, Bai, Chi, Xuan, Feng and Yang. Among them, it is the oldest surname source in today's100000 Huang family. Huang Yi, a branch of Dongyi Bird Exchange, is named after worshipping a bird. At that time, there were many beautiful and lovely birds living in the ancient Youzhou area south of Yanshan Mountain. Most of their feathers are bright yellow. The ancients called it the yellow bird, and the yellow bird was also called the oriole, which is today's oriole. This kind of bird is beautiful and lovely, with elves and crisp and euphemistic calls. It is these lovely birds, accompanied by the primitive ancestors who have been hunting in the mountains for a long time, sang and danced for them, gradually eliminating the tension and fatigue of their hard work, and the people have a special feeling for this kind of bird, from love to worship. The people are also the Yellow Bird Family, the Huang Family, and the Huang Family for short. Today, Huangshan, Huangqiu, Huangfu and Huangxian are the places where ancient Yellow people lived. Due to geographical and climatic reasons, Huang people migrated from Inner Mongolia to the southeast and joined Dongyi Group. Gradually, the emperor's power developed rapidly and became a powerful branch of Dongyi Group, and was promoted to the leader of the tribal alliance. In the middle of barbarism, Dongyi tribe group took Wu Jintian, a young member of Fengyi nationality, as the leader of tribal alliance, and Huangyi and Fengyi formed a marriage nation. Phoenix is a kind of divine bird, among which there is a female divine bird named Huang (later written as Huang). The yellow bird is the spouse of the phoenix bird and the marriage country of Feng Yi. The Yellow Man replaced the common oriole with a yellow bird, and the totem of the Yellow Man changed from a bird to a golden phoenix, from which we can see the evolution of the ancient Yellow Man. In the middle of barbarism, during the Yanhuang period, some members of the Oriental Huangyi tribe moved to the Central Plains of the Yellow River valley and were named after Huang, which is now Huanggou, Huangchi, Huangyi and Huangyi in Henan.
