Luo's name and totem:
Luo, the original meaning is bird net. Comparatively speaking, Robbie's net is dense, and the woven silk rope is much thinner. "If the world is the best, birds will not lose." This is the origin of the idiom "tight encirclement". Later, people called the fine-hole sieve Luo, which extended the meaning of attracting guests. However, as a verb, it always means catching birds with a horse.
The upper part of Oracle Bone Inscriptions is a net, and the lower part is a bird, which means that a bird is caught in a net and cannot fly with its wings, so it is a knowing word. In the Qin Dynasty, the word Luo in Xiao Li's regular script added a "knot" under the net, indicating that the net was made of silk and the birds entered the net. In ancient times, clans used barbed wire to catch birds. It is said that in ancient times, Manchu, the minister of Fuxi, was the first ancestor to create traps. The bird-catching tool "Luo" is the primitive totem of the clan. The symbol of this clan consists of nets and birds. The place where the clan lived was called Luo, and the place where the castle was built was called Luoyi, which gradually formed the country of Luo and finally developed into the surname of Luo.
The origin and evolution of Luo surname;
After the bad surname of the Han nationality came out, Wu of Zhu Rong's family was the leader of the Mi nationality with sheep as the totem, the ancestor of the Mi surname and the ancestor of the Chu people in the Spring and Autumn Period. During the Xia Dynasty, the Cave Bear Clan, the descendant of Ji Lian, was always active between the bear market and Woong San, that is, the areas around Xinzheng and Yanling in central Henan today. Luo's family is divided into Dong Xiong's and Xiong's. Because he is good at catching birds in Luo, he is called. They live between Luoshan in Henan and Luotian in Hubei in the north and south of Dabie Mountain, and there is a cave bear clan in the north. This area is densely forested and densely populated with birds, and it is also an important intermediate zone for a large number of migratory birds to migrate from north to south. Until liberation, farmers in this area still kept their jobs and skills of catching birds with nets.
In the Xia Dynasty, the cave bear tribe entered Chuqiu in northern Henan, now east of hua county, and was renamed Chu tribe. In the early Shang Dynasty, Chu and Luo tribes gradually developed into countries. In the late Shang Dynasty, Wuding conquered the remnants of Xia Dynasty, such as Chu, Luo and Lu, and forced them to move westward. Chu moved to Jingshan in the Weihe River Basin of Shaanxi Province, and the tribe was renamed Jingchu. Luo people moved to Luoshan in the east of Zhengning County, Gansu Province, north of Jingchu. At the end of Shang Dynasty, Jingchu and Luoren followed the crusade against merchants. After the demise of Shang Dynasty, Chu and Luo were sealed in Danyang and. The Chu people crossed the Qinling Mountains and went south along the gradual water, reaching Xichuan in southwest Henan.
