Lu Ban was a native of Shandong during the Warring States Period, so his hometown was in Shandong Province. Luban (507 BC-444 BC), a native of Lu in the Spring and Autumn Period, was named Ji, who was defeated by the public and was a famous class. He was called a public defeat, a public defeat, a public defeat, and a public defeat. He was also called Lu Ban or Lu Lei, and was called "Lu Ban" in the past. Luban's name has actually become a symbol of the wisdom of the ancient working people. For more than 2400 years, people have concentrated on him the collective creations and inventions of ancient working people. Therefore, the story about his inventions is actually the story of the inventions of the working people in ancient China.
After about 450 BC, Lu Ban came to Chu from Lu to help Chu make weapons. He once created a ladder to attack the state of Song. Mozi came all the way from Lu to Guoyong, Chu, and argued with Lu Ban and the king of Chu, forcibly persuading the king of Chu to stop attacking Song.
Hand tools used by carpenters, such as drills, planers, shovels, rulers and Mo Dou, are said to have been invented by Lu Ban. And the invention of every tool is inspired by Luban's production practice, after repeated research and experiments.
Shandong Province
Shandong Province, the eastern coastal province of China, is called Shandong for short, and Jinan is the capital. It is located in the eastern coast of China, between 34 22.9 ′-38 24.01′ and east longitude114 47.5 ′-122 42.3 ′, north and south with Hebei, Henan, Anhui and Jiangsu provinces.
The mountains in the middle of Shandong are raised, with low-lying and flat southwest and northwest, and gentle hills in the east. The terrain is dominated by mountains and hills, with Shandong Peninsula in the east, North China Plain in the west and north, and mountains and hills in the south-central part, forming a landform with mountains and hills as the skeleton and alternating plains and basins, including mountains, hills, platforms, basins, plains and lakes. It spans five major water systems: Huaihe River, Yellow River, Haihe River, Xiaoqing River and Jiaodong. It belongs to warm temperate monsoon climate.
As of September, 20 19, Shandong Province has jurisdiction over 16 prefecture-level cities, including 57 municipal districts, 27 county-level cities and 53 counties, making a total of 137 county-level administrative regions. 664 streets, 1092 towns, 68 townships, a total of 1824 township-level administrative regions.
Shandong is one of the cradles of ancient civilization in China. At present, the earliest Shandong people-"Yiyuan people" can push the history of Shandong to four or five hundred thousand years ago. The northern new culture in the early and middle Neolithic period is about 8000 years ago. The world-famous Dawenkou culture and Longshan culture at the end of primitive society were first discovered in Shandong.
Since the Xia Dynasty, Shandong has entered the slave society. Before the establishment of Shang Dynasty, Shandong was the center of business activities, and the capital was moved to Shandong three times out of five in the early Shang Dynasty.
After the establishment of Shang Dynasty, Shandong remained its ruling center. The Western Zhou Dynasty implemented the policy of "sealing the country". Lu Shang was sealed in Qi, Lu, Cao, Teng, Wei and other countries. Qi's "trade and industry, the benefits of fish and salt, the people return more"; Lu is a "state of etiquette", which combines Zhou culture and oriental culture. As the two pillars of the Zhou Dynasty, Qi and Lu achieved rapid economic and cultural development, which had a great impact on the development of local history in Shandong in the future.
