Gao's migration:

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Gao was mainly active in North China, one of which was the late Warring States Period. After the destruction of Chu State, it passed through the land of wuyue, entered Chu State, and finally reached Hainan. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, Gao's footprints have spread all over North China, Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia and the Central Plains. The last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty was the heyday of Gao surname, and the most famous Bohai Gao surname was formed in Shandong.

In the Western Jin Dynasty, Gao mainly migrated to the north and northeast. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, due to the demise of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Gao was forced to emigrate to southern Shaanxi and western Shu. At the end of the fourth century, the beginning of the fifth century and the end of the fifth century, the people of the Central Plains migrated to Japan on a large scale to escape the war, which formed two climaxes of "naturalized people" going to Japan as called in Japanese history books.

The main curse is Wu Luanhua in the late Western Jin Dynasty. The long-term and extremely cruel ethnic vendetta made the Han people in mainland China unbearable, and began a wave of large-scale migration to the surrounding areas: mainly south to the south of the Yangtze River, followed by fleeing from the northeast to the Korean Peninsula, and a considerable number of north and south refugees finally went to Japan. When King Liu came to Japan, Gao had an entourage.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Gao's main activity place was still north of the Yangtze River, but he continued to migrate to Sichuan and Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. During the Five Dynasties, Song and Yuan Dynasties, Gao migrated to all parts of the south of the Yangtze River, especially in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Gao entered Taiwan.
