Historical evolution:
In ancient times (about 20,000-40,000 years ago), Tonghua area was inhabited. A large number of paleontological fossils, bone tools such as sharp tools and scrapers, and human fire remains have been found in the Paleolithic cave site in Da 'an Town, Tonghua County, which proves that this site is the site of human living and living in the Paleolithic age.
In the Neolithic Age (about 5-6 thousand years ago), there were Neolithic ancient humans on both sides of the Hunjiang River in Tonghua City, fishing and hunting crops and thriving. With the development of history, the ancestors of Tonghua gradually formed a place where the three major language families, Huaxia, Sushen and Yi, lived for generations after long-term mutual influence.
In the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Tonghua was the southern boundary of Sushen, and when it became king, Han Hou was sealed in the "northern soil" of Sushen, Yan and Zhou, leading the local ethnic groups. Tonghua is the territory of Han Hou. After the demise of the Han Dynasty, the post-kingdom ruled by the Shang Dynasty royal family Jizi was merged. Ji Zi's post-kingdom was a vassal state granted by the Zhou Dynasty, and Tonghua was Zhou's territory.
