The Origin and Evolution of Deng's Surname

Zhong Kang named Deng, the son of his concubine, in Gudeng, west of Mengzhou, Henan. Because it is on the north bank of the Yellow River, it is also called Hebei Deng. From 1250 BC to 1 192 BC, it was the period of Wu Wang Ding in Shang Dynasty and the period of Shang Dynasty's revival. Wu Ding conquered Xia vassal states and tribes on a large scale, and Deng Guo also perished during this period. Children and grandchildren were forced to move southeast to Dengcheng, which is now the southeast of Yancheng City, Henan Province. In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was Cai's land. Because it is south of the Yellow River, it is also called Henan Deng. Deng's surname is at least 4000 years old.
