One-Sun surname is mainly composed of five sources: Ji surname, Mi surname, Li surname, sub surname and the change of foreign surname.
the first one is from Ji. In 146 BC, Zhou Wuwang destroyed the Shang Dynasty, and made it the same as his sister Ji Yu Kang, the Marquis, known as Uncle Kang in history. After Zhou Wuwang's death, Zhou Chengwang was young, and the three supervisors joined forces with Yin Wangwu Geng to rebel, which was put down by Zhou Wuwang's fourth brother Zhou Gongdan. Kang Shu was named Huai Hou for his meritorious service in the Pingwu Geng rebellion. Zhou Chengwang took Kang Shu as the sheep herder, gave Wei Zhibao a sacrificial vessel, and wanted to move Kang Shu to Wei. After Kang Shu's death, Zhou Chengwang officially named Kang Shu's grandson, Kao Bo, Yu Wei, Marquis, and the ancient city in Chaoge City in the northeast of Qixian County, northern Henan Province. Therefore, Kang Shu was called Wei Kang Shu in history, which is the name after him. At the beginning of the Spring and Autumn Period, Wei Wugong was awarded the title of Duke by Zhou Pingwang. The son of Wei Wugong, the son of Hui Sun, and the grandson of Hui Sun, Wu Zhongyi, the Wu Zhong family took the word of grandfather as their surname. This branch, whose surname is Sun Shi, has a history of at least 2,7 years.
the second branch comes from the surname. At the beginning of the Spring and Autumn Period, the grandson of the King of Chu? Jia? Son of Jia? Ai La, also known as Sun Shuao, took Sun Shu as his word, and became the Lingyin of Chu Zhuangwang. His son and grandson took his word as their surname. Sun Shuao lived in the period of thinking, that is, southeast of Huaibin, Henan. This branch, whose surname is Sun Shi, also has a history of 2,6 years.
The third branch is from Gui surname. In 146 BC, when the Shang Dynasty was destroyed in Zhou Dynasty, the direct descendant of Zhou Wuwang Fengshang Jun was full of Chen. In 672 BC, Chen Wan, the son of Chen Ligong, fled to Qi and changed Chen to Tian. When Qi Jinggong (reigned in 49 BC), Sun Tianhuan, the fifth son of Chen Wan, was Tian Wuyu, the doctor of Qi, and his son Tian Shu was awarded the title of Yue 'an by Qi Jinggong. The ancient city now benefits the people in Shandong, and he was given the name of Sun Shi. This family named Sun Shi has a history of more than 2,5 years.
the fourth consanguineous child surname. At the end of the Shang Dynasty, the Chaogang was in chaos, Zhou Wang was intoxicated, Zhou Wang's uncle was fighting, and the sage of the Shang Dynasty was killed because of direct remonstrance, and his descendants took refuge and changed their surnames. One of them was named Sun Shi because he was a descendant of the royal family. This Zhi Zi surnamed Sun Shi has a history of more than 3, years.
The fifth one is from foreign surnames and ethnic minorities. The most important events in which other surnames were changed to Sun's are as follows: the descendants of Xunzi, a famous Warring States scholar, changed their surnames to Sun's in the Western Han Dynasty in order to avoid the anonymity of Emperor Xuandi; Xiahou Po, the great-grandson of Teng Gong Xia Houying in the Western Han Dynasty, changed his surname to Sun with his grandfather's surname; During the Three Kingdoms period, Sun Jian changed Yu He's surname to Sun. The use of Sun surname by ethnic minorities mainly includes: Sun surname of Qidan people in Tang Dynasty; In the Qing Dynasty, the Manchu Eight Banners changed their surname from Sun Jiashi to Sun Jiashi. Most of these foreigners were assimilated into the Han Sun surname after long-term mixed residence with the Han nationality.
Sun's surname has been active in Henan and Shandong since it was established in the late Shang Dynasty and early Zhou Dynasty. At the beginning of the Spring and Autumn Period, Sun Shi, the surname of Ji, has always been a hereditary Shangqing who defended the country, and Sun developed rapidly in Henan. By the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Sun Shi fell out of favor in Weiguo and moved north to the State of Jin. Sun Shi, the surname of Gui, who originated in Shandong, developed vigorously. Especially in the Warring States Period, a famous strategist Sun Wu was born, and his son Sun Ming was given the title of Fuchun Hou because of his father's work, and his fief was now in Fuyang, Zhejiang Province, forming Wu Jun, a famous county in the south of Sun Shi. After the Qin and Han Dynasties, Sun Shi, the surname of Gui, became the main surname of Sun in China, expanding from Shandong to Taiyuan in Shanxi, reaching southern Zhejiang in the west and Hubei in the southwest. During the Three Kingdoms period, Sun Jian and his son established the Kingdom of Wu in the south of the Yangtze River, and the development of Sun Shi reached its peak. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Sun Shi in the North, the Central Plains and the South of the Yangtze River all developed rapidly, and a number of famous Sun Shi families appeared. By the Tang and Song Dynasties, Sun's surname had spread all over the country. In the "Hundred Surnames" formed in the Song Dynasty, the first sentence is Qiansun Zhao Li, which shows the social status and influence of Sun's surname. In the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, Sun also entered Taiwan Province.
The population of contemporary Sun surname has reached 18.48 million, which is the 12th most popular surname in China, accounting for 1.54% of the national population. In the 6 years since the Ming Dynasty, the population of Sun's surname has surged from 1.19 million to 18.48 million, an increase of nearly 16 times. The average population of the Ming Dynasty was close to 93 million, and the contemporary population was 1.2 billion, which increased 13 times. The population of Sun's surname is increasing faster than that of the whole country. The increase rate of Sun's population in the past 1, years is in a "V" shape. At present, the distribution in China is mainly concentrated in Shandong and Henan provinces, accounting for about 28% of the total population of Sun. Secondly, it is distributed in Anhui, Heilongjiang, Hebei, Liaoning, Jiangsu and Jilin, and these six provinces have concentrated 42. Shandong is the largest province with the surname of Sun, accounting for 16.9% of the total population of Sun and 3.3% of the total population of the province. The provinces with the highest population ratio are Heilongjiang (3.5) and Jilin (3.4). Taking the Yangtze River as the watershed, Sun's surname shows the distribution pattern of more in the north and less in the south, forming the distribution belt of Sun's surname connecting the three northeastern provinces in the coastal provinces of East China. During the recent 6 years, the degree and direction of the population movement of Sun's surname were very different from those of Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties, which was characterized by strong migration from the southeast to Central China and North China, and at the same time, a large number of people from the lower reaches of the Yellow River migrated to the northeast.
Second, Sun Shi's ancestor, King Wen, had brilliant deeds in previous dynasties
In history, Sun's surname has always been a great surname, and great men and celebrities have come forth in large numbers.
According to the records in Surname Code, the earliest ancestor of this famous surname is Zhou Wenwang. The Zhou Dynasty was a feudal society, and Zhou Wenwang's eighth son, Kang Shu, was sealed to Wei. When it was spread to Duke Wu of Wei, Hui Sun, the son of Duke Wu, became the Shangqing of Wei, and this branch of Hui Sun took Sun as their surname. At that time, defending the country was now in Taiyuan, Shanxi. The textual research of this passage in "Family Name Code" has been recognized by later generations-Sun's ancestors can be traced back to Zhou Wenwang more than 3, years ago.
However, at the time of Han and Tang Dynasties, some people put forward many different opinions:
The List of Prime Ministers of Tang Dynasty wrote: "After Sun Shuao, the surname Bi was born again, and the son of Qi and Chen without Yu wrote a book, which made meritorious deeds in attacking Ju 'an. The Duke of Jing gave the surname Sun, and the food was collected from Le 'an. The descendants ran to Wu in disorder, and Sun Wu was a general, and later."
The Han Sungen Monument says, "It came from Yin Bigan first."
Hanshu: "Xia Houying is Teng Lingfeng's army, named Teng Gong. His great-grandson is quite a master, and the master is named Princess after his family, so his son and grandson are also Sun Shi."
Han Shu: "Xun Qing avoided Han Xuandi and was afraid to change Sun Shi."
The above statements illustrate three points:
First, the origin of Sun Shi's surname is still uncertain in later generations, which is why it originated from different statements such as Bigan and Sun Shuao.
Secondly, due to various factors, some people gave up their original surnames and took Sun as their surnames, or changed their surnames with other families, or avoided the emperor's taboo, which led to the increasing number of Sun surnames.
Third, some people who are now surnamed Sun are probably descendants of Chen, Xun, Xia and Hou by blood.
There have been different opinions about the origin of Sun Shi's surname. Now it is more troublesome for people with Sun's surname to trace the correct origin of blood.
Among countless names of Sun in history, Sun Yang may be regarded as the first one to appear in history books. The name Sun Yang may be unfamiliar to you, but if you mention Bole, you must be very familiar with it. Sun Yang was a native of Qin Mugong in the Spring and Autumn Period. Bole was his word, and he was famous for being good at looking at horses. Later generations also used the word "Bole" to express a person's understanding.
Secondly, Sun Wu, a well-known military scientist all over the world, whose Thirteen Articles of the Art of War are regarded as the highest military law until today. The descendants of Sun Wu also produced a famous figure-Sun Bin, who is good at the art of war.
When we look at the deeds of famous people named Sun in the Records of Shang You, none of them can compare with Dr. Sun Yat-sen, whose contribution to the country and the nation is deeply remembered by everyone in China. It is universally acknowledged that his great achievements are unparalleled in China's past history. Sun's outstanding and outstanding people really reached the pinnacle in him.
