Pangu clan, ancestor also. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info was born at the beginning of chaos, before Hongmeng was judged. Cave dwelling and wild place, grass clothes and wood food, dirt and drink. At this time, there is no name of Sanguang Wuyue, no work of three emperors and five emperors, no book of three tombs and five classics, listed in Taiyi, Taichu, Taishi, and Taisu. Pangu clan, sheng ginseng three talents and praise two yi, son three emperors and grandson five emperors, cover is self-righteous and people are extremely established, humanity is clear, and humanity begins. Therefore, it is said: one breath is not divided in heaven and earth, the two rituals are judged, the Tao is in the sage, Pangu clan is based on it, there are hexagram paintings, and there are knotted ropes, and there is a net poppy system, who is not from Pangu to cause evil? The three emperors of Shi Ben, the five emperors of the book crown, the ancient and modern times know that there are three emperors and five emperors, but do not know that there is the Pangu clan, how can it be far away in Soloye! How can we make the people of ancient and modern times know that there is a person but not know that there is a ancestor! Qingshi is also false, there are five miles out of ten in the south of Yi, the traces of the old can be found, the words of the first fear of Zhuang Lie are involved in the void, the history of the history is reduced to delusion, in fact, there is a temple in the inside, there is a tomb in the ditch, abrupt as in the past; Those who have seen and heard all the young people can deduce and think.

The legend of the native monk: Yang servant and other construction, Hongzhi Wushen Liu Hou saw the seal, Chen Jingchun made a figurine, and a new one, still not prepared. Zhou Hou got out of the car, and Sun Kehui advocated and made a new move. It is easy to be small and large, easy to be stone, easy to be coated with mud and gold and iron, so that the foundation of the eternal is not easy, once it is changed. Wish it rain, pray for it and sunny, retribution is like a sound, whose achievements can be remembered, to hang forever, and Zhao will follow.

The seventeenth year of Hongji is in the first month of Jiazi Spring.
Combined with the prehistoric facts we learned earlier and the Taoist legend of the creator god of Pangu. We can roughly draw the following conclusions:
During the primitive period, humans were in the stage of ignorance and lived (not settled) in caves in the wild. He used grass for clothing and gathered fruit from trees for food. When you are thirsty, you go to the river and drink water in your hand, not caring about the dirt. At that time, there were no classics, and later various classics referred to Taiyi, Taichu, Taishi, and Taisu all refer to this stage.
In 50,000 BC, late Homo sapiens invaded Chinese mainland and reached north of the Great Wall, eliminating or assimilating early Homo sapiens such as the Xujiayao people. Early Homo sapiens was in the primitive human stage in terms of organizational form. Late Homo sapiens was in the embryonic state of matriarchal clan communes. Solidarity is much stronger than that of early Homo sapiens. So to be able to defeat early Homo sapiens. Late Homo sapiens was widely dispersed in Chinese mainland. The sites in this period are the earliest Hetao people in Inner Mongolia (BC50000), the Huanglong people and Hancheng people in Shaanxi (BC40000) are slightly later, the Qilinshan people in Guangxi (BC34000) and the Shanshan cave people in Beijing (Hebei region) (BC32000~25000) are later.
The cave people from the peak of the mountain from 32000 BC, scattered in the Hebei region, due to the difficult conditions at that time, the resources of a site were limited, at that time the endogamy system was practiced, it was impossible to distinguish who was the father of the child, so the child only recognized the mother, but not the father. Therefore, when the population of the tribe has developed for a period of time, due to resource constraints, a certain mother will be driven out of the tribe along with her children (who are usually adults).
The mother migrated with her children to a place a little further away from the tribe (on the condition that it would not affect the tribe's food resources) to find a cave to live in. The mother takes the woman to gather fruit at home, while the adult man is engaged in fishing and hunting. As a result, a situation was formed with the tribe as the center, and the satellite clans around the tribe. As a result, the tribe's sphere of influence expanded day by day. The cave people on the top of the mountain are centered on Zhoukoudian and are widely distributed in the vast areas of Hebei. As the population of these clans increases, new tribes are formed, and instead of being related to the original tribe, there is also a competition for resources. At that time, the main role of men was actually to defend the clan tribe from being broken by the enemy, the main source of food at that time was gathering, and fishing and hunting could improve the nutritional status, but fishing and hunting often had many dangers. Women, led by the grandmother, were in a high position because they had the main source of income. And all the people in the clan are direct descendants of the old grandmother, so it is impossible to challenge the status of the old grandmother.
At that time, the clans and tribes were ruled by a dualistic system, similar to the relationship between the governor and the CEO today. The grandmother is the supreme ruler of the tribe, while the patriarch (usually male) manages the day-to-day affairs. In case of important matters, the old grandmother would hold a tribal meeting (all attended, there were relatively few people at that time. If there are more, they will split into new clans) to negotiate and settle it. The old grandmother has the final say.
In 30,000 BC, fifteen miles south of Qingxian County, Cangzhou City, Hebei Province (closer to Tianjin), there was a tribe here, and the name of the tribe was Pangu clan. The old grandmother of the Pangu clan is the prototype of the Taiyuan Virgin in Taoist legends. And the patriarch (named Pangu after his tribe, named Pangu) ~ Pangu is the prototype of the Yuan Shi Tianzun in Taoist legends.
The previous late Homo sapiens were all clothed in grass and lived a savage life of fur and blood. Pangu was born intelligent. On the basis of paleolithic tools, he invented polishing and drilling techniques, and sent people to exchange rich prey from other tribes for artificial fire methods (in fact, it was already possible to make fire manually in the early Homo sapiens period), ending the previous passive situation of needing to protect fire. By grinding animal bones, bone needles were developed. Organize the women left behind in the family to sew animal skins into clothes with bone needles. Let the women wear drilled ornaments. Bone spears were also studied by grinding animal bones, which enhanced the men's ability to hunt and fight. With the development of the Pangu tribe, the productivity has been greatly improved.
In order to strengthen the overall strength of the tribe, Pangu led the men of the Pangu clan to launch a annexation war against other clans around him, and after the war, the men of the rival tribe were killed, leaving only the women and becoming new members of the tribe. Later, Pangu gradually discovered that the children born to the captive women were healthier and less deformed than the original children. At that time, once a deformed child appeared, he had to be abandoned, because there was no surplus food to provide. So Pangu called on the tribe to implement exogamy.
As the tribe grew stronger, more and more tribes were willing to form an alliance with the Pangu clan. The tribes were married to each other and gradually became one. Pangu became the co-leader of the tribal alliance.
