Lunar Dragon Boat Festival

On the Dragon Boat Festival, zongzi is fragrant, and every household is busy hanging wormwood and calamus. The children painted realgar on their foreheads and played happily in sachets. It is really a peaceful and warm holiday painting style. Then, when the Dragon Boat Festival is coming on 20 17, let Lao Huangli sort out the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival for you. Let's have a look.

The origin of the Dragon Boat Festival is 50 words (1). During the Warring States Period, doctors in the State of Chu tried to persuade the King of Chu to fail, and he threw himself into the river in a rage. People in the state of Chu miss this honest doctor very much, so they wrapped glutinous rice into a bag and threw it into the river, hoping that the fish could eat rice instead of Qu Yuan's body. Later generations continued this tradition and gradually evolved into the Dragon Boat Festival.

(2) Wen Yiduo thinks that the fifth day of May is the day when the "Dragon" tribe in ancient wuyue held totem sacrifices in the "Dragon Boat Festival Examination" and "Dragon Boat Festival History Education". There are two main reasons. First of all, the two most important activities of the Dragon Boat Festival-eating zongzi and dragon boat racing-are related to dragons: zongzi is often stolen by dragons when thrown into the water, while dragon boat racing is done by dragon boats.

Second, this race has a particularly deep relationship with ancient wuyue. In addition, wuyue and people with serial tattoos have the custom of "looking like dragons". Third, there is an ancient folk custom of "tying the arm with colored silk" on the fifth day of May, which should be a relic of the tattoo custom of "like a dragon".

The origin of the Dragon Boat Festival is 50 words. (3) It is said that the Dragon Boat Festival is to commemorate the filial daughter Cao E of the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 23-220) who jumped into the river and saved her father. Cao E was a native of Shangyu in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Her father drowned in the river and didn't see her body for several days. At that time, Cao E, the filial daughter, was only fourteen years old, crying day and night by the river. 17 days later, he also threw himself into the river on May 5, and fished out his father's body five days later. This was spread as a myth and then to the county governor's office, which made the degree still stand as a monument and made his disciple Han Danchun make a eulogy.

The tomb of the filial daughter is in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province today, followed by the Cao E Monument written by Jin. Later, in order to commemorate Cao E's filial piety, Cao E Temple was built where Cao E threw himself into the river. The village where she lived was renamed Cao E Town, and the place where Cao E died was named Cao E River. Therefore, it is said that the Dragon Boat Festival is also a day to commemorate the filial daughter Cao E.
