The Ancient Period


Why are we called “the descendants of Yan
and Huang (炎黄子孙)”?
Chinese history began with two legendary
figures—Emperor Huang and Emperor Yan,
who, together with their tribes, inhabited the
drainage area along the middle reaches of
the Yellow River. By the time of Xia Dynasty,
after centuries of living side by side, these
two tribes had gradually merged into one.
Consequently, the Chinese people usually
themselves “the descendants of Yan and
Huang”.
Yu conquering the flood
Yu inspired people to dig ditches to divert
water instead of building dams. He worked
ceaselessly for 13 years and succeeded in
controlling the floods.
