Known as the "father who presided over the heaven", Yuanshi Tianzun has a very high status, even higher than the status of the old gentleman and Lingbao Buddha. When heaven and earth were in chaos, the existence of Buddha was the beginning of its vitality, so it was called "Yuan Shi". In the universe, the beginning of Yuan is the first existence, ranking above all immortals, so it is also called "Tianzun".

To sum up, Yuanshi Tianzun is the origin of the universe, which existed before Pangu created the world. Therefore, on the one hand, the queen of Nu Wa was born after Yuan Zun, who should be Nu Wa's uncle according to seniority.

Nu Wa's contribution:

Texture development population; Co-founded and improved the marriage system, rules and regulations and folk music with Fuxi; Flood control and disaster relief. Nu Wa also fired pottery and developed pottery-making technology.

Among them, pottery not only adds a brand-new way of cooked food, but also can safely store food and drinking water in large quantities, getting rid of the ubiquitous harassment of rats. More importantly, pottery led to the division of labor between men and women, which was the first great division of labor for human beings and laid a solid foundation for civilization.

Men get food, drinking water and other daily necessities outside, while women do housework, process and cook food, and look after and educate children at home; Family structure is more stable. Because pottery is bulky and fragile, people tend to settle down and live, which further promotes the development of building technology, fire technology and manufacturing technology of household appliances (including tools).
