ancient history
Zhoukou, an ancient state of Chen. At the end of the Warring States Period, it was once the capital of Chu, and Chen Sheng and Guangwu established the Zhang Chu regime here. Since the Han Dynasty, all dynasties have set up counties and prefectures around Huaiyang. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Zhoujiakou was an important hub for the exchange of materials between the northwest and the south of the Yangtze River, and was once known as one of the four major commercial towns in Henan. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, with the opening of Sha Ying River, it began to develop, and the original market towns gradually expanded from the north bank of Shahe River to the south bank. In order to meet the needs of businessmen on both sides of the strait, a family named Zhou sailed the first ferry on Nan 'an Street (now the old street in Chuanhui District), hence the name "Zhoujiakou".
During the Wanli period of Ming Dynasty, the dredging of Jia Luhe River was completed, and Zhoujiakou became an important commodity distribution center connecting South Jianghuai and North Shanshan.

Fu, the ancestor of human beings, appeared in Zuo Zhuan and Huang San Benji, so "Longjiguan was named the Dragon Master". Mu Renxian's Preface to Zhoukou-China's "Myth Capital" states: "Fuxi conquered nine tribes successively. Fuxi's first totem was a python, and other tribes also had their own totems. Every time Fuxi conquered a tribe, he added some tribal totems to his python totem. After years of conquest, Fuxi added tiger's eyes, long whale's beard, monitor lizard's legs, eagle's claws, red carp's scales and white shark's tail to the python totem. Thus, a new totem image came into being. What is the name of the new totem? On the fifth day of September that year, Fuxi was calling nine tribal leaders to discuss the alliance. Suddenly, dark clouds merged and a flash of lightning flashed across the sky. The dazzling flash is like a new totem, and then there is a loud noise. When Fu Heaton realized something, he named the new totem' Dragon'. "
