Why is Tongren called Tongren?
This paper introduces the historical evolution of Tongren, which is popular now: Tracing back to the source, in the Yuan Dynasty, a fisherman sank to the bottom of the water and got three bronze statues, hence the name of the mansion. County has been established here 1300 years. Yuan set up military and civilian lawsuits in Tongren, Dajiang and other places and sent them to the Anfu ambassador in Sizhou. In the 11th year of Yongle in Ming Dynasty, Tongrentang was founded. In the 26th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, Tongren County was established. Tongren's name first appeared in the Yuan Dynasty. Then the question comes: Why did the fisherman get three bronze statues? Why are these three bronze statues underwater? Why did our ancestors cast these three bronze statues? Why not four? What is the purpose of casting three bronze statues into the bottom of the river? Why is it not made of other materials? What was the name of this place before these three bronze statues appeared? How did it get its name in Yuan Dynasty? Do you suspect that the author fabricated Tongren's life story because of the limitation of his own knowledge? We can think about these problems rationally.

Another way of saying it is: Tongren comes from Miao language "Dong people understand benevolence", which means "low-lying", "benevolence" means "high mountain" and "Dong people understand benevolence" means "low-level land surrounded by mountains". According to Guangxi Nandan and Du 'an Miao (Wu, Long, Shi, Ma, Tian, Yang, Shen, Teng, Ran and other surnames. ), because of the failure of anti-Qing, moved from Tongren and Sinan in Guizhou. Their ancestors blocked the attack of Qing soldiers with red-hot bronze men on the cliff near Jinjiang, and were later swept away by the enemy with elephants. Is this statement true? First of all, is this information source reliable? Why do Miao compatriots who moved to Guangxi know such a fact? And a bronze man had this name in the Yuan Dynasty. What does this mean? Is "Dong Shi being benevolent and knowing benevolence" a modern or ancient Miao language family? In the past, our ancestors traveled and settled. When did a Miao nationality in Guangxi settle in Tongren?
