Excerpt: Huang Di, or the Yellow Emperor, is a legendary Chinese sovereign and cultural hero presented in Chinese mythology. He is said to be the ancestor of all Huaxia Chinese. According to many sources he was one of the legendary Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. Tradition holds that he reigned from 2697-2597 BCE or 2696-2598 BCE. He is regarded as the founder of Chinese civilization. In the first annal of the Records of the Grand Historian, the opening few words of the first paragraph give the identity of the Yellow emperor. Sima Qian, author of the records, gave considerable weight to the historicity of the emperor. For example, the Three Sovereigns has Fu Xi, Nüwa, and Yan emperor/Shennong, but he carefully chose to begin with the Yellow Emperor. He refrained from beginning the records with any of the other legendary figures of claimed greater antiquity. The Yellow emperor's surname was Gongsun (¿¿/¿¿), while his first name was Xuanyuán (¿¿/¿¿). His full name was Gongsun Xuanyuán (¿¿¿¿). He also used the assumed names of Xuanyuán-shi (¿¿¿/¿¿¿) and Youxiong-shi (¿¿¿). Xuanyuán is said by some to be the name of a village. Youxiong was a name taken from his heredity. The Yellow emperor and the Yan emperor were both leaders of a tribe that benefited from the proximity of the Yellow river. According to the tradition, the Yellow emperor's birth place is believed to be in Shou Qiu, today on the outskirts of the city of Qufu in Shandong Province. Early on, he lived with his tribe in the northwest near the Ji river (¿¿), later migrating to Zhuolu in modern day Hebei Province (¿¿). He then became a farmer and tamed six different special beasts, the bear (¿), brown bear (¿/¿), the pí (¿) and xiu (¿) which later combined to form the mythical Pixiu with its appetite for gold and silver, the ferocius chu (¿) and the tiger (¿). The Yan emperor hailed from a different area. Both emperors lived in a time of warfare. The Yan emperor was unable to control the disorder within his realm t
