China people's surnames are a subject worthy of our study. For example, people surnamed Cao were actually left over by the Minister of Wu during the Warring States Period. Because Wu was extinct at that time, this person remained anonymous, and later this surname appeared. Cao surname is a rare surname, but some surnames are very special. Let me give you an example:

First, the Yin surname has a long history and is rare at present.

There is a village in our country called Yinjiayu, and most of the villagers are surnamed Yin. In fact, this is evidence that a large family moved here to live. In fact, the Yin surname began to spread when the Three Emperors and Five Emperors were in power, which was the case in ancient China. Later, the family went to live in the Yellow River valley. With the continuous change of dynasties, people with Yin surnames are almost all over the country. At present, there are many people with Yin surnames, mainly in Henan.

Second, there are many legends about the three surnames, but now there are very few.

What surname first came from the Zhou Dynasty? According to records, after Zhou Wuwang won the world, Lu Heng was appointed as a doctor to defend the country. Jiazhai Town, Chiping County, Shandong Province, was called the North in ancient times. Since then, it has become Lu Heng's territory. After the demise of the Zhou Dynasty, after the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, what surname did Lv Heng's descendants use? Later, it began to increase gradually throughout the country. Currently, in Hubei Province, Hunan Province,

Third, surnames are very unique, with only 1,000 people in the country.

Shu Wei is one of the famous historical books in China, which records the initial situation of a surname. At that time, there was a Xianbei people in the Northern Wei Dynasty, that is, Yi Fu. Later, with the reform of the Northern Wei Dynasty, this clan began to take the name of the Han people, so surnames appeared. At present, there are less than 1400 people with surnames in China, while there are only more than 10 people in Beijing. A surname is mainly distributed in Shanxi, Sichuan and other regions!
